Kubalandeli abashisekayo bokudliwa kwenyama umuntu ngezinye izikhathi angezwa edelela: “Phela, ngisho nokudla ukudla kwezitshalo kuphela, usabulala. Uyini umehluko phakathi, ake sithi, ukuthatha ukuphila kwengulube nesitshalo esiqhakazayo?” Ngiyaphendula: “Ebaluleke kakhulu!” Izambane liyakhala ngokudabuka lapho likhishwa emhlabathini, njengethole elithathwe kunina? Ingabe iqabunga lesilimo esidliwayo esinamagatsha anamanzi liyakhala ngobuhlungu nokwethuka lapho lihluthwa, njengengulube iyiswa esilaheni futhi inqunywe uqhoqhoqho ngommese? Yibuphi ubuhlungu bokulahlekelwa, ubuhlungu besizungu noma iminjunju yokwesaba inqwaba ye-lettuce engaba nakho?
Asiyidingi i-polygraph ewubukhazikhazi ukukhombisa ukuthi izitshalo zinohlobo oluthile lokuqaphela. Kodwa futhi akungabazeki ukuthi lokhu kuqonda kukhona ezitshalweni ngendlela engavamile, engavamile, eyakudala kakhulu kunezilwane ezincelisayo, ezinesimiso sazo sezinzwa esithuthuke kakhulu. Ukuhlolwa okuyinkimbinkimbi akudingekile ukuze uqonde ukuthi okufanayo izinkomo, izingulube, izimvu zingakwazi ukuzwa ubuhlungu obungaphansi kwabantu. Ubani ongakaze ayibone indlela abathuthumela ngayo futhi bashwabene, baququde, babubula futhi bakhale lapho behlukunyezwa noma begogekile, ukuthi benza kanjani konke okusemandleni ukuze bagweme ubuhlungu nganoma iyiphi indlela!
Futhi ngenxa yalokho, izithelo nemifino eminingi ngokuvamile ingavunwa ngaphandle kokubangela ukufa noma ukulimaza isitshalo. Lokhu kuhlanganisa amajikijolo, amakhabe, imidumba, amantongomane, imbewu, amathanga, ama-squash, nezinye izinhlobo eziningi zemifino. Amazambane ambiwa phansi lapho isitshalo ngokwaso sesifile kakade. Izitshalo eziningi zemifino ngokuvamile zingonyaka, futhi ukuvuna kuhambisana noma kuvimbela ukufa kwazo okungokwemvelo.
Kukhona nobufakazi besayensi bokuthi amazinyo ethu, imihlathi, namathumbu amade asontekile AKULUNGILE ukudla inyama. Ngakho-ke, ngokwesibonelo, umgudu wokugaya ukudla womuntu uphindwe izikhathi eziyi-10-12 ubude bomzimba wakhe, kuyilapho ezilwaneni ezidla inyama njengempisi, ibhubesi noma ikati, lesi sibalo sithathu, esivumela uhlelo lwazo lokugaya ukudla ukuthi lususe i-organic ebola ngokushesha. imikhiqizo ngesikhathi esifushane ngangokunokwenzeka. njengenyama, ukugwema ukwakheka kobuthi obubolayo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, isisu sezilwane ezidla inyama, uma siqhathaniswa nomuntu, sinokwanda kwe-hydrochloric acid, esivumela ukuba zigaye kalula ukudla kwenyama enzima. Namuhla, ososayensi abaningi bayavuma ukuthi izithelo, imifino, amantongomane, imbewu nokusanhlamvu kuwukudla okufanele kakhulu komzimba womuntu.
Ngakho sikwazi kahle lokho ngaphandle kokudla, asikwazi ukuhlala isikhathi eside, futhi konke ukudla kwethu kuqukethe izinto ezake zaphila ngandlela thize. Kodwa njengoba singakwazi ukuphila ngaphandle kwenyama yezilwane ezihlatshiwe futhi sihlale sinempilo futhi sigcwele amandla, kungani-ke, sinensada yokudla yemifino edingekayo ukuze siphile kahle, siqhubeke sithatha ukuphila kwezidalwa ezingenacala?
Ngezinye izikhathi kweminye imibuthano yabantu abangajwayelekile "engokomoya" kunombono ongavamile: "Impela sidla inyama," bathi, "ngakho-ke? Okubalulekile akukhona ukuthi yini esigcwalisa izisu zethu, kodwa ukuthi yini egcwalisa ingqondo yethu.” Nakuba kuyiqiniso ukuthi ukuhlanzwa komqondo womuntu ekudukisweni nasekukhululweni ekuthunjweni kobugovu “kwami” kuyizinjongo ezinhle kakhulu, kodwa singathemba kanjani ukuthola uthando nokuqonda nazo zonke izidalwa eziphilayo ngokuqhubeka nokuzidla?
