- eating animals and eating humans are analogous

Our society has decided that humans are not on our menu. Why? Probably because there are other sources of food that are easier to hunt for, and I guess we don't taste as good (I'm actually serious about this last part).
However, believe it or not, there is still a significant percentage of human population that does practice cannibalism (although not for nourishment, but for spiritual or other reasons) and for them it is not only normal to eat their fellow brother in arm after he falls in a battle or an enemy whose skull they've just bashed in, but it is a social norm.

What is ruling over the nature? Building a shelter, not burrowing it?

Today I eat beef, tomorrow worms will eat me. I accept that and nothing I eat now will change the fact that eventually the worms shall have my corpse in their bellies.
