. in the story of Cain and Abel
two brothers give gifts to their god;
but the god showed favoritism toward Abel's gift;
and then Cain feeling cheated by the god,
murdered his brother.
. coincidentally,
the preferred gift was that of raising meat,
rather than relying on plants which offer far less protein
and usually have anti-nutrients that require special processing.
. this story may have been a warning to
the elites who design our gods (the priestly caste)
not to create a god who causes injustices and hurt feelings:
we need a god that says our tribe is better than outsiders,
and within the tribe, each is equal to self.
. also, the story could be about
why we should prefer animal rather than plant protein.
. there are quality issues that you need science to understand;
so just tell the ignorant age that our god prefers meat.
. similarly, when trying to control germs,
if the people don't understand the idea of germs,
you tell them the god loves ritual handwashing.
