That happens to me all the time. I say something brilliant, and ... crickets. Forever.
One thing I find interesting about this topic is that all the writers the author mentions are probably doctrinaire Darwinists (or they wouldn’t be respected writers). They believe God’s plan for all of life was a universal death-struggle ... and yet they believe we shouldn’t eat a fish or a chicken.
I think there’s some balance: humans may be top of the food chain in the suburbs, but put us in Alaska or Africa and we’re just a snack.
