We still eat meat

still eat fish
We still drink water from the seas
We still use tree’s wood for our houses,
if not then rocks
What is all this advancement, revolution, rebellion, evolution?
When we are
Still
as primitive
as we used..
to be

I know its oversimplified, but why not this extreme for a change as we always seem to love making everything more complex than it is.
