This coming-of-age story of a Muslim-American is a lot like the documentary I’m recently obsessing over, "My Reincarnation". The main character, Yeshi is a Reincarnated Tibetan leader living in Italy who struggles between his two identities. An interesting documentary that spans twenty years and leaves you wondering if Yeshi made the right choice. I enjoyed this reviews from the Chicago Tribune. bit . ly/uIr2nk

lol. its ironic that the very fact that our ancestors ate so much animal protein allowed our brains to grow to the size they are now. That allowed us to have higher level thoughts and emotions such as empathy for our food for instance. You think Homo Erectus cared about the wellbeing of its food? haha

ok its simple , humans have teeth that are designed to eat both meat and vegtables because we need to. however i will say the excess eating of meat is questionable. in todays world there is an over consumption of meat.
