That being said, vegetarianism doesn't really fit in to the theme of the game. You eat what you find in order to survive. People of long ago didn't have the luxury of choosing, and if they did we'd surely have been extinct by now.

That's just putting the cart before the horse. All this proves is that higher intelligence makes you more likely to be vegetarian (presumably because smart people are more likely to even think about the environment etc.), not that being vegetarian makes you have higher intelligence.Caliku wrote:High IQ link to being vegetarianjorb wrote:I don't really considered vegetarianism an intellectual position requiring enough deliberation to earn the moniker "personal belief", but suggesting never hurts.

High IQ =/= 105~
