Actually, our closest relatives, chimp, are omnivores (and, in some rare instances, cannibals), to the point of having hunting parties with definite roles. The...

Lee, I do appreciate the thought and time you put into the post, you bring up some good points, even though I disagree with other points. One mistake is that...
