Do you love cereal? Vegan ftw (:

In different situations...LightR

That's irrelevant, nature says it's okay.

Yeah, and so are internet arguments. But that hasn't stopped you has it?metroidfood

I'm not arguing, and I wouldn't say that it's on the same level as eating a dog or a human baby.

If a cow got a chance to eat you and everyone you love, I bet he would take it!_rock_

Cows are herbivores so you lost that bet.

But if we're playing the nature game, then we're at the top of the food chain. nothing wrong with us eating animals.-Pro-Link-

I would hardly say humans are really playing the "nature game" at this point.

No...We treat them like a piece of meat. :P

Exactly.

People have been killing animals for food for thousands of years. What difference does it make now?

But seriously, slaughtering animals is not right. Have you seen videos on what they do to animals? It's disgusting and cruel. Animal testing isn't right either. Animals also have hearts. They're not things you can just mess around with. I hate how people treat animals like they're some piece of trash..

Does soy milk taste similar to regular milk? Even if it doesn't, at least it won't have that sour milk smell if it's split...

Considering that pigs are just as emotional and slightly more intelligent than dogs, that's not quite right. Would you eat a dog?

Because dogs for thousands of years have been used as companions to humans (man's best friend, anyone?), not only that they have proven themselves in providing many helpful services. Pigs on the other hand have been bred since the ancient times for the sole purpose of harvesting.

Man I would really like a delicious steak right now medium cooked A.1 sauce mmmm XD4NTESINF3RNOX

Yeah, that's right.

It's hardly irrelevant. You don't see poor families around the world eating their own young because they have no food instead of starving to death. Just because nature says it's "okay" doesn't mean we have to do it.LightR

So you prove my point.

Sorry I love meat and milk

Tons of small animals die by being mangled by farming equipment during harvests. Vegans kill animals too.F1_2004

Which is irrelevant as it's unintentional.

If you don't eat meat, the animals will have died or been slaughtered in vain. :P

dam...you just made me even more hunger and I just had mcdonald's an hour ago you jerk! :(

Nah I'll stick to eating my meat (goes to dinner with a plate full of chicken)

*steals chicken*

That could be true, if vegetarians were buying meat just to throw in the trash, but as far as I know they aren't, so it's not.

Hardly irrelevant. Animals couldn't care less whether we intended to mangle them underneath a tractor.

Good job, you're like the 20th person in this topic to make that kind of spiteful comment, what creativity.

Which is irrelevant as it's unintentional. Going by your logic it'd be perfectly fine to molotov a Zoo because you unknowingly, unintentionally ran over a mouse.

When we accidentally kill another human being by way of vehicular manslaughter, we still get in trouble for it. No matter what way you put it, murder by intention or accident lands you in the lockup. Same as killing an animal. Taking a life -- it is what it is.WestSideAzn

So what's your point. People should be locked up for eating meat?

No way, im way too skinny as it is let alone give up meat. :Prealistic44

That doesn't even make sense.

eh scratch what i said im trying to do some mis work for college, take care of my pet and talk on here at the same time.

So you're telling me that the argument that vegans make against meat eaters is, "It's OK to kill animals, as long as you didn't mean to do it"?F1_2004

No.

I don't worry too much about animal suffering. It's really all just a sliding scale of what we're willing to tolerate.

Ask any meat eater if they like animals being tortured, and they'll say no. They just don't care enough to research the slaughter practices on farms from which their chicken nuggets originated.

Now, some people are against animal abuse, and go vegan. But how many of them bother to research whether or not the bread that they eat came from grain that was mass-harvested by machines rather than hand-picked? If you eat vegan grain products that were harvested using the kinds of machinery that tends to kill and maim any animals that get in the way, then you could go one step better and grow your own grain, and then handpick it.

Of course, no one wants animals to get tortured. But there's a point at which most consumers stop caring (be they carnivores, omnivores, or herbivores). You can always go one better when it comes to being "humane", it's just that most people go as far as they're willing to go, and then stay right at that comfort level.

Cereal is great for mornings. But I love my meaty meat.

No, I'm saying that the point he made about killing innocent animals while harvesting grains is irrelevant to this thread.... WestSideAzn

Are you trying to prove your loyalty to me.
