My primary responsibility is well-being and safety of my own family and loved ones, equally or even more important than my own.

To some extent, I feel responsibility for my relatives, friends and other people I know. If I see they need help, have been treated unfairly or they need someone to step out for them, then I will do it.

I feel responsibility for the children, the elderly people, sick and disabled people, the outcasts. I would not be able to leave a homeless drunk asleep on the corner of the street in the winter without doing anything about it. And this is not just empathy towards another being, this is also conscious sense of responsibility.

And I do feel social responsibility in some level. If my voice or act is needed to change something to better in society / country then I'm ready to do it.

The human digestive system is that of a vegetarian


I disagree with that.

Human beings are omnivores. They eat meats and vegetables.
Humans are predators. Binocular vision and canine teeth.
Around 2 million years ago it was our diet of meat proteins that allowed our big brains to develop. http://berkeley.edu/news/media/releases/99legacy/6-14-1999a.html
We are hunters AND gatherers.

Edit to add link



Tom, I'm referring to our design not how we've chosen to act.



Our digestive system is that of a herbivore.

The last paragraph of the link I provided
Milton's paper also demonstrates that the human digestive system is fundamentally that of a plant-eating primate, except that humans have developed a more elongated small intestine rather than retaining the huge colon of apes - a change in the human lineage which indicates a diet of more concentrated nutrients.


Our initial primate design was herbivore. Keyword is WAS.

Milton said that her theories do not reflect on today's vegetarian diets, which can be completely adequate, given modern knowledge of nutrition.


Our change to meat-eating changed our bodies.

Binocular vision and canines are representative of predators but not exclusive to them. What is exclusive to humans is walking upright on two legs and not having a tail for balance. Even the great apes run on all fours.

Did you know that cows have been known to eat meat?

cows also have four stomachs, and are herbivores,, humans only have one

point no anatomy is exclusive to just herbivores or just carnivores,

and humans produce a stomach acid that herbivores do not

and the human intestines are somewhere between herbivore and carnivore(longer than a carnivore but shorter than an herbivore)

just to say, there isnt the exclusive herbivore OR carnivore features to definitively say one or the other

and being that we seem to chew and digest meat without dying or becoming sick,,,I would figure we have the anatomy of an omnivore

after I clicked out of the post , I realized how far off topic this is,,,offtopic offtopic

I've always been led to believe that animals with there eyes on the front of the head ie us are the hunters and those with eyes on the side of the head ie most birds, cow's etc are the hunted!

Do we hold ANY towards our fellow human beings? If so, to what extent?

My mom and brother were comparing guns the other day , and though I am grateful they have 'protection' I am very set in my disinterest to own my own.

I just do not ever want to carry the responsibility of having taken another human life.

This is not a discussion on guns, by the way. This is just to get perspectives on how much a part of the 'human family' people feel they are or if it is only loved ones that are 'family' enough to be concerned for or responsible to.


I believe that we all have responsibility to ourselves as well as the others around us. As a citizen you should know your rights to protect yourself and do your social responsibilities as necessary. We are all an integral part of a society/community/nation/world/universe/habitat/ecosystem , and each one of us have our individual roles, functions and duties to perform. We are all interconnected where the actions of an individual affects the other. If we are not sensitive or concern of how our actions will affect the others then there will be no balance where we live in, thus there will be chaos. Having good sense of responsibility in our interactions with everyone and everything around us will have a big impact on the development as a whole nation in terms of socially, economically, culturally and environmentally. Mind your own, mind the others and the universe with extra care and sensitivity.....that is what a responsible citizen/human being/Christian would do to protect his or her habitat. Be responsible for others not just your own life. We all need each other in many different ways.

Two points here, one, is a huge responsibility to own a gun and to fired at someone. Two, if we can eat plants, no one will be hungry. See simple.
