Dear Solomon,
1. I feel, Veg. concept was a very later one to Vedic Hinduism and the major contributors to such concept were Buddhism and Jainism.
2. There was/is no clear cut definition about Vegetarianism in Vedic Hinduism. For example, fish is considered as Veg among Bengali Hindus.
3. Human body can digest non-veg food easily. I had seen most of my Korean/Japanese/Chinese friends eating raw fish heavily and digesting it without any problem. So, your statement is wrong.
4. Your statement "God made human" is highly doubtful. I feel opposite way.
Regarding other points, I don't want to poke my nose at this moment.
For others,
why can't we use latest genetic research to discuss history and beliefs? I read the following interesting articles recently after reading about Dr Spencer Wells’s documentary "Journey of Man" telecasted in National Geographic.
1. The Piramalai kallar, Suthroids and many south Indian tribes have been found to be close match with remote African tribes.

2. East African tribes also have a "mountain god" named "Murungu" (omnipotent universal god)
http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Itha...o/sud_afr.html
Surprisingly, the piramali Kallar community and some Adi Dravidian communities also praise "Murugan" as the primary God and these community had settled in and around madurai (early rulers too) long time back (pre sankam, even pre-historic)
Did Dravidians (early settlers) had their own God before (assumed) later migration of other human races to India?
(Note: All the caste names used here are purely for educational/understanding purpose only. I personally feel all humans are equal irrespective of their races, migration periods, origins. No human/language is superior than another)
