    Re: evolution and the discovery of meat

    I believe that the issue is not brain size as such, but the brain/body size ratio. Elephants may have bigger brains than humans, but that's because their bodies are so much larger. As for men and...

    I think mysonvaughn is talking about the first humans, the first H. sapiens. We don't really know whether there were any vegetarians among those early humans. It's possible, but I'm inclined to think...

    I've heard such things before, and I'm not too skeptical about them. However, the environment in which our species first appeared was very, very different from the one that we live in now. Are there...

    It is possible that there were vegan non-agriculturalists. But if they existed, that must've been in areas where plenty of protein-dense plants were available all year round. Can anyone think of such...

    I do believe that the hunter-gatherers' diet was largely plant-based. In the summer at least, it would've been far easier to find plants than it would be to hunt down a large animal. That doesn't...

    I'm still suspicious. Are the plants that are 1) easy to make flour from and 2) rich in protein, easily and widely available? Also, even if it's fairly easy to make flour, how do you store it if...

    Just? :p Seriously though, the question isn't whether those plants are edible but whether they would provide enough protein for our brains. What we need is a lot of those plants that provide us with...

    By the way, the article from medical-library.net is interesting, but it's not terribly credible. Human evolution isn't nearly as well understood as they would like us to believe. For example, it...

    Homo sapiens is such a weird species. As Korn pointed out, we have far more in common with herbivores than with carnivores. (As for the famous canine teeth, primates use their canines for scaring...

    Did humans always eat meat?

    I've been thinking about this one, and I figure, perhaps they weren't fishing, but then they must've been hunting large mammals or something like that. For clothes if for no other reason. And if they...
