First off, WOW! No kidding on the memory thing. That's extremely amazing! I wonder if the limit on our natural lifespan is longer than we realize. Seeing as many people are going carnivore these days, I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing that typical expected lifespan increase for those who stick to a mostly meat based diet for a long period of time in their lives.

Ya man I don't know if our government is just blind, willfully ignorant, clumsy, misinformed, or malevolent in this regard. Maybe a combination of all the above in several circumstances considering how many people work in the US government. Ever since the US started moving away from gold, I think we forgot who to blame for what. We're just on this flawed operating system of pretend money, bad diet, and who knows what else could be flawed. It's all culture now and there are also legal tender laws too. I dunno what people can really do other than the right thing for themselves and their families.

On another note... Funny thing on the living forever idea, I've been reading through the bible out of curiosity and there are early stories where people live to ages 900 or more. It's an interesting anecdote; that someone had thought to write that years ago. Another funny thing about the book is that there is precedent for the carnivore diet. It's not like there's an endorsement or an outright command from God exactly, but there's a precedent that people preferred meat and ate a lot of it. Especially considering the fact that meat and livestock can feed a lot of people and can be used as a method of food preservation. If you keep your cow alive, then you're preserving food and perhaps increasing the food output if you feed and take care of the cattle properly.

There are also symbolic links and meaningful things regarding lamb. Lamb makes sense in a narrative context. When you kill a lamb to eat its meat so you can survive and thrive, you're effectively making a sacrifice in regards to the emotional connection and bond you would have with that animal.

It's even harder than killing a cow because sheep look really cute, at least comparatively in my opinion. This is all to say that people sacrifice sheep in the old testament stories to something higher than themselves, which would be God in context of the story. Livestock is something that's high value nutritionally and emotionally. It goes deeper with new testament stuff too but I haven't read that far in, I can just see some of the connections already.

It's a fascinating symbolic and narrative invention. It kind of comes off as genius to us these days considering we've forgotten all about the carnivore diet and had to have science rediscover it. I suppose that might have been the purpose, embed truth inside a narrative for people to discover. Though to be honest the idea kind of backfires, considering how difficult it is to actually pick up on the fact without the knowledge of the carnivore diet before hand. I dunno, the bible might be the greatest work of fiction to exist. I can see why it's transcended beyond fiction and into religion. Just food for thought! 🤔
