"Are Humans Carnivores or Herbivores?" or omnivores?

It is much more of a challenge for one person with ego to relate to another person with ego than with a being of pure positive energy.

Wow.

Thanks, at least, for helping me understand that viewpoint. To be kind about it, I'll just say that I disagree with every breath I can muster.

Such a damaging belief, though, to think of people as "unloving."

Or to not realize that humans are an animal as well. Google "evolution" for that one, though.

I don't think of people as unloving, but I do understand that their egos are. Simple as that.

Humans are built for survival and only in 2009 are we able to speculate if we are omnivores, carnivores or herbivores.

To survive we taste food and if we don't get sick we keep eating it in order to survive. Our bodies have adapted through the years.

Its interesting that some races of people react differently to different foods based upon their heritage. This is very telling.

Humans today are a result of what our ancestors have eaten (good or bad).

Carnivores instinctively prey upon and attack their prey and then rend it to death. We can't stand meat unless it's in a tidy package, clean and grilled to perfection. We are not true carnivores.

Carnivores have teeth meant to rip apart raw flesh. We can rip apart a pre-cooked piece of meat if it's tender enough.

But that doesn't mean some of us aren't evolved to eat meat. That meat-based diet is ideal for some of us. But not all of us.

Humans, as we are now, have mutated three times. From the basic blood group O, into A, B and AB. AB being the most recent. Despite interbreeding, O still dominates. O is the survival-of-the-fittest type. The caveman. Thrives in feast or famine. Handles high protein easily.

Each of those sero-groups originated from specific climatic and nomadic habits which means their changes in latitude and subsequent food options and climatic challenges literally changed them. Long story short, there are ideal diets for each bloodgroup based on ancestry. It's proveable by the reactions that ALL people with O blood have to a specific food item. ALL people with B react to chicken poorly. ALL people except O react to tomatoes poorly. ALL people with A do better as vegetarians. ALL people with O do better as lower carb, moderate protein. (there is something called secretor status that has an effect on specific foods choices within a blood group and it can be easily tested for to have the most customized diet.)

So why do years of trial and error with diet and health? Just trust your blood.

Umm, when you say ALL B's react to chicken poorly, what do you mean? I love chicken! Guess what blood type I am? Please explain where you got this from.
