this is a tray advert used in an indian vegetarian restaurant at Capitol Building along North Bridge Road, Singapore.. a somewhat new vegetarian restaurant named nALAn Restaurant - Purely Vegetarian.. the food is not too bad and not too pricey either.. so it's worth a go for vegans..
okay.. back to the advert.. which amused me a fair bit.. this was the first time i saw humans being put into the same category as herbivores.. which i cannot say the points are untrue.. but humans do have remnants of sharp teeth in the form of canines.. though for tearing meat or plant stalks i cannot say for sure.. they have, however, dulled through the course of evolution and that is another issue to think about..
to me.. humans are more like scavengers.. we barely have the strength, speed and agility to hunt.. what we depend on are our ability to build and operate tools (i.e. spears, arrows, guns..) using our greater than average intelligence over our fellow earthlings.. we have rather short, delicate tongues that are most definitely not suited for grappling grass and leaves.. neither do we have the intestinal system to properly digest plant fibre.. and all these inadequacies actually make us inferior to most creatures out there, in my humble opinion..
although we are hardly herbivores.. to say that we are on top of the food chain is definitely an overstatement.. and we should rather consign ourselves to subsistence on the lower end of the food chain and take pride in that.. scavengers as we are.. there is nothing wrong with that.. that might actually be one of the most important points for the survival of mankind..
finally i would like to highlight a quote from one of the greatest mind that ever existed..
very cool..
so good morals have nothing to do with faith..
