At some point in history, human evolution took a detour
We began eating meat, not out of malice, but for survival and security.
Over time, our bodies and minds adapted to this powerful change. Meat became more than food. It became culture, addiction, and eventually, industry.
Ancient leaders focused on survival, often at the cost of other living beings. In deserts, mountains, and frozen lands, people had little choice. Farming wasn’t always possible. Killing was a matter of staying alive.
But those times are behind us. What remains now is knowledge. And with it, a new responsibility to live in alignment with who we truly are.
This belief may have made sense in survival situations long ago. But today, it is mostly kept alive by massive industries that profit from misinformation and routine. These companies promote the idea that meat is masculine, that milk is essential for calcium, and that omega-3 must come from fish. These claims are not based on truth. They are built on advertising. Now, more people are starting to question them.
Our closest animal relatives, chimps and gorillas, thrive on plant-based diets. Like them, we are physically suited to chew plants, digest fiber, and gather fruits and seeds with our hands.
We do not have claws to tear flesh, and we do not have the acid-heavy stomachs of predators like lions or sharks. Still, some compare us to carnivores to justify eating animals. But these comparisons are based on emotion, not biology. We are not lions. We are not wild predators. We are thinking, feeling humans with the ability to choose differently.
The most ethical humans today are those who live in harmony with others, rather than at their expense. These are the people choosing a path of truth, compassion, and responsibility. They are called vegans.
Are we really built to eat flesh and drink the milk of other species?
Have you ever smelled warm blood or seen animal guts up close?
Most people could not raise an animal and then kill it with their own hands. Many cannot even watch it happen. That discomfort is not weakness. It is instinct.
When we ignore that reaction, we ignore a part of our humanity. We are not meant to take life without question. Something deep inside us resists it. And that matters.
Vegans are not superior. They are simply people who started asking why. They saw that the world has taught us to forget, to disconnect, and to accept harm as normal. But it is not.
There is a better way. A more conscious, more evolved way to live, without violence, without guilt, and without turning away.
