In summary Egypt was the high point of humanity on Earth


In terms of architecture, art, etc. (which still exists)

You drop your knowledge around here in a great simmering pre-compost pile that simmers and once it composts all the vegans and vegetarians that are organic thank you for your offerings. All that and I didn’t say you’re full of excrement.<grin>

It is a fact, meat is food.
A vegan does not eat animals. A vegan does eat meat, every living thing consumes meat.
No. You are once again committing an etymological fallacy. This is a fact. Your fact is a non-fact, i.e. a fantasy. I feel no need to entertain your fantasies.
I’m not forcing you to.
I’m simply saying according to definition, meat is food to sustain life.
Thus vegans and vegetarians eat meat
What you are is "simply" wrong, for the reasons argued above. It doesn't matter whether you feel like I feel like you're "forcing me to" or not.
What is the Uncreated?
Sublime & free, what is that obscured Eternity?
It is the Undying, the Bright, the Isle.
It is an Ocean, a Secret: Reality.
Both life and oblivion, it is Nirvāṇa.

I was wondering what the connection was to bring up Egypt; maybe that's it. It's just compost.

steRo, Scientist or not surely you watched the movie ET? Don’t you remember that movie said do not feed the gremlins after midnight! Sigh

Edit to add: I’m waiting for Kappy to correct me about hey that’s the wrong movie.

Edit to edit to add: then he’s going to correct me because I used a K.
