GACK. Let's not go there? There is currently a HUGE controversy about where Darwin and vegetarianism overlap. There is no conclusive proof one way or the other, and most people tend to lean toward the "proof" that validates their current situation.

I don't mean this in a disrespectful way, but in a forum that's bound to harbor a whole lotta veggies and armchair-philosophers, you might get flamed for putting "supposed to be" on anything. The assumption that "because it exists in nature, it is right" has been torn to shreds by so many philosophers that it's become a fairly moot point.

END soapbox mode. Okay, I'll be meek now. Maybe.
