some people suggest that a return to a fruitarian diet will help to bring about a return to an eden like state on earth again, could the movement towards vegetarianism be a step in the direction of that return to a paradise like state?

Definitely..when people stop murdering innocent beings for a meal, offcourse our sensitive nature will return, violence will decrease and our love will naturally expand. The sooner people respect God's innocent little creatures and treat them in a loving way, the better. Murdering animals for a meal, creating such suffering is really horrible. being vegetarian really is a step in the right direction.

well, remember Eden's that place that Adam and Eve were, and I'm guessing that they ate meat so I don't thing vegetarianism is a step towards that. Basically, I don't think u can get heaven on Earth again. I think God gave us a perfect world, but we ruined it because of our greed. From the second God banned us from the apples on that tree we were doomed. The devil never really needed to be there in the form of a lizard/snake thing because it already was there in the form of Eve's temptation. Ever since we have lied, cheated, murdered, blasphemed, and broke some if not all of the 10 commandments. Even the Catholic Church got too big for it's boots and decided to cheat God. They started to think that they were better than him, that they had his power that they had the right to call themselves the Lord's followers, when really they were just like everyone else, which is why the whole Reformation thing started. I don't think there ever was, or ever will be heaven on Earth, because God wanted it that way... I know it sounds slightly crazy to say that, but he can tell whats going to happen and he made us, so either he gave us our sins or I don't know, we developed them, but he must of known that was going to happen. It's all very confusing, but I believe it's true.

There is a good chance that by the time another few centuries are up, our civilization will be pretty much utopian compared to what we know now. Our minds will run inside computers, enhanced with addon programs to increase our intellectual capacity. Our 'bodies' will be composed of dozens of remote-controlled machines. The Earth will be covered in giant, crystalline towers containing rows upon rows of memory and processors, while robotic ships range throughout the Solar System and even out towards the rest of the galaxy.

However, I can tell you right now that none of this has to do with vegetarianism. There is nothing particularly special/holy/sacred about a diet of plants only, other than being a little healthier and little kinder towards animals. We can eat plants all we want, but without also advancing our technology we're never going to end up with a utopian civilization.

Fruitarians die young. They do not get enough of all the nutrients they need from the 7 food groups, no matter how much they eat. They die a few years after they start a fruitarian diet at the most.

If we consider all creatures part of our family, we will search for ways not to kill them. Then we can use the massive amounts energy and food and water we would have used to for raising animals for slaughter. We could plant lots of fruit trees and seed crops and feed everybody.
Nobody really know what the world will look like. We are six and a half billion people. That requires a lot of agriculture. But it would be a step.
But as a really smart person said:
"Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet." Albert Einstein

when you your self become god...joking. Look. I have just found heaven on earth. you do after you live in hell for thirty years, and then you find a place, outside, like a town or anything, but to find it it has got to be the inner desire. To gel. **** vegies. Veg are good, but so is all food if you are healthy enough to eat anything. \If you really want paradise, I suggest (and of course it must unfortunately be different for everyone( toungue in cheek), but drop some good acid and walk to the bottom of the grand canyon. it is the coming up for the going down that is the heaven. get it honey. Get yourself a nice fillet steak, make you warm and strong, we are in the west, not the east, cannot apply same principles...you can try, but you will get ill.

"I don't think what we eat can erase the sin we are born into than damns us all"
what sin??????
"humans are natural omnivores
since when do you need incisors to tear into a leaf of lettuce" false
have you looked into a dogs mouth - they have very pointed inzisores and lots of them.
try eating an apple or a baked potateo thats what we need insizores for. we have lots of MOLARS for grinding up mfood
AND we have an appendix which only herbivores have-we dont use ours anymore becuase people ate meat for 100's or years but before that we were herbivores

in amswer to the actual question
well if we carry on eating animals we will make the world into a hell
"On irrigated land, 1lb of vegetables uses 25 gallons. 1lb of beef uses 5,214 gallons.
It takes about 10kg of good quality plant protein - such as wheat and soya - to produce 1kg of meat protein
Amount of grain needed to end extreme hunger - 40 million tonnes. Amount of grain fed to animals in the West - 540 million tonnes."

people will starve do you call that hell?

"Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away and there was no longer any sea. I saw the holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men and he will live with them. They will be His people and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or pain for the old order of things has passed away....

Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations (Revelation 21:1-4, 22:1-2 NIV)."

No. We humans define layers and layers of contrived morals. We realize that life feeds on life, get some weird guilt about it, and then try to remedy the situation by defining certain life that is moral to eat and other life that's not. Then we project the guilt onto others who are eating the 'immoral' life. All BS. Just eat what makes you feel healthy.

sorry ,
but being vegetarian is only one minute aspect.
as long as man has all the other flaws and vices / insecurities / hypocrysies - Heaven and Hell will still be on Earth
