It's so interesting to sometimes stop and think about "what's natural." It's hard to wrap my head around the idea that there's no objective truth to even the idea that eating dogs is bad. It seems viscerally disturbing to me, and yet, I'm a unrepentant carnivore who has no compunction at all about eating chicken or cow. For some reason, it's easier for me to view that in the light of "natural order."

Really fascinting piece. I'd never heard the story of the monkey and the fish before myself. Thanks for sending this one in!
