    • 2 Pages

    On first impression while reading Ishmael‚ the fact a gorilla is teaching the reader about the human race is almost insulting. At second glance however‚ one realizes the primate has a better perspective on human action. Always viewing our civilization from afar‚ he is able to notice certain aspects of our nature that are so natural to us; we are blind to their destructiveness. Although some of Ishmael’s analogies may seem far-fetched‚ the points he makes with them are frighteningly true. The

Biologically‚ we must eat meat to give us enough energy to make us grow up healthily. So I do not believe
