Huh?!? Are you saying that if we eat the diet we are adapted to we will go
extinct? I am completely awed that you can make that sound plausible in
three sentences. Perhaps because life extension and level of energy (beyond
a certain point) have little to do with evolutionary success.

Huh?!? Here's one scenerio for the future evolution of our species: Raw
vegan advocates convince the world that they must become strict converts
for health, and of course, spiritual reasons. Immediately libido is
diminished to absurdly low levels. The next generation, not just limited in
number but also showing a marked inability to grow to sexual maturity,
reproduces at a miserable rate. And so on, the species is extinct in
several generations.

Seriously, forest, for fun, try entertaining, just for a moment, the idea
that spirituality has no place in the human future, that our "destiny" is
to outgrow our pathetic need to codify bliss. It is of no interest to me
how true or false that may turn out to be--it is simply a way for you,
perhaps, to see how prejudiced you are _for_ all the spiritual hocus pocus.
What if the eggs in your basket (your group process thing, raw veg, and
general new agey spirity stuff) are not the "true direction" but another
fad? Again, whether or not they are the future makes no difference to me.
My point is: who decided that what _you_ believe is best for the rest?
