What's right and wrong?

Lylac Wrote:Please provide some evidence for your claim because never in my years of education have I read about a correlation between eating meat and intelligence in evolution. Intelligence itself is a really subjective term. Forming tools was key to our evolution, not necessarily eating meat. Eating meat was an effect of our increased intelligence, not a cause.

ugh, u search for it!
i got it from science shows on t.v, which talked about the evolution of men, from the first apes to walk on 2 legs (which ate meat! unlike any other apes at that time, i think), to the neanderthal man (maybe there was an episode about us too that i missed)...
well, if i remember correctly, it wasnt only for meat that we grew big brains, but meat had essential vitamins and other stuff that we needed...
after all, dont forget that unlike now, the diet back then (millions of years) was alot smaller and it was more like "just eat what u can" so maybe fruits that contains iron for example was extra-rare, so in this case, eating meat is a great solution!
u can just figure this stuff out, plus, from what i understand, b12 vitamin affects our intelligence and brain volume and stuff like that....

also, something helped us develop tools, prehistoric-humans werent as innovative as we are, they took the world for granted and discovered tools mostly by accident (also was said in that one science program).
i think it was a bbc program, and i kinda believe it although it's filled with speculations.
