Whats wrong with eating meat?

I would have told her it's immoral to eat vegetables. I mean, plants have the right to live, too, you know. But seriously, if there's one thing I hate, it's having a vegan's beliefs forced on me. I seriously want to slap one in the face with a big fat juicy tenderloin.JustPlainLucas

That's racist.

im okay with eating farm animals because theyre raised to be eaten. but would i eat a rabbit? neverkirbyfanatic

My philosophy: The Cuter the animal, the better they taste

I'm sorry, but I have no respect for people who eat things plucked right out of the earth! That is murder!

There is nothing wrong with eating meat

[QUOTE="MagnumPI"][QUOTE="Hewkii"]

[QUOTE="MagnumPI"]That's why we hunt deer & fowl as well, to reduce the population.espoac

no we don't.

Yes it is, That's why we hunt in in seasons. Numbers increase so we must reduce them anually. They have no where to go because we built up all of the land. The rural areas become crowded and they wil start to wonder off into the cities if we don't. They still do but they would eventually be everywhere if we didn't.

We got rid of the preditors because they attack us. THE DEER AND CATTLE AND FOWL are still alive because we preserver them for FOOD. If we didn't use them for food they would ALL be gone, because we would have no use for them. They would just be in the way.

What differencedoes it make if a wolf kills them or I kill them. I'm apreditor I hunt, I stalk therefore I am apreditor. Humans are preditors.

Deciding not to eat meet and thinkingthe consumption of meat isimmoral is a luxery. A luxery that modern domesticated life has given you. Everyone else provides with everything you need. You've never had to survive. So picking what you choose to eat is a luxery that grocery stores and other food services have stored for you.

We are natural preditors. We are omnivore. And what's your point? Do you even have a point. I don't think you do.We can decide to do many things. I've alreadyexplained the logic of it to you twice.

It's a lack of something better to do with your time. I really don't like sawing apart,gutting and cleaning animals myself but it's better to eat it than waste it.

Thesystematicbreeding and slaughtering of animals is doneto fufil the supply and demand. Most people no longer hunt. So someone supplies the meat for them.

Okay, my Sister brought her friend over here today, and i didn't really care. So i was watching TV while eating a burger, and 5 minutes later my Sister asked me to stop eating it, she told meit makes her friend uncomfortable. And at first i thought it was the way i was eating, but it turns out that girls a vegen, or whatever. And i figured, i paid for the burger, im going to eat it. Then the girl gets all moody, and starts arguing with me. Talking about its immoral to eat meat. Long story short, she left because she couldnt stand the sight of a dead cowandnow my Sisters angry with me. I dont think theres anything wrong with eating meat, but some people do. What do you think?

Who's right and who's wrong?

that girl that felt uncomfortable, would probably feel more uncomfortable if you smacked her with a ham sandwich

:lol: If she couldn't stand seeing you eating meat, why did she bother to continue watching? Jesus...anyways there's nothing wrong with eating meat. And for the vegetarians, for ever animal you DON'T eat, we omnivores/carnivores eat 3.Denjin_hadouken

She LEFT?!!

Dude, you are FAR too accommodating. Because before it ever got to the point where she left, you should have kicked her the **** out.

When I invite a guest into my home, I will be damned if I'm going to let them stand there and tell me how to live my life. I'm not going to discuss it, I'm not going to argue. You either stop with that ****, or you're out on your ass.

I don't CARE if you disagree with what I'm doing. It's MY business, and you're a guest in my home. And when you're a guest in someone's home, you do NOT walk into his house and start telling him what's what. That's not how a guest acts. And if you're not going to act like a guest, then as far as I'm concerned you're NOT my guest. And if you're not my guest, then I'm kicking you the **** out of my home.

I eat meat because:

It taste good.

I'm an old fashioned kind of guy, and believe in resources, and eating meat to survive like humans have for thousands of years.

It taste good.

I don't have too much of a problem with vegans, but some are pretty extreme, and try to force their beliefs on you...that's annoying.

There is a place for all of god creatures... right next to mashed potatoes and gravy.

And you were right in thinking "I paid for it i'm going to eat it" I would have done the same thing. And if she starts an argument just tell her to STFU and then enjoy and ignore what ever BS is coming from her mouth, if you can easily ignore people like me.

Dude, wtf?

EVERY habitat is other animal's habitat?

You're talking about NO expansion, EVER.

There is nothing wrong with eating meat. However, I hate it when some hunters shoot animals and dont eat the meat. RmanForLife

I go hunting specifically to get the meat. I could care less about the antlers. I just want some tasty fried venison backstrap.

I don't like trophy hunters. I think its a complete waste of a perfectly edible animal.

im okay with eating farm animals because theyre raised to be eaten. but would i eat a rabbit? neverkirbyfanatic

Once again, wth?

Question for you: have you at any time in the past, ever raised an animal for the purposes of killing it and eating it?

Dude, people get ATTACHED to the animals that they raise. Even stupid-ass animals like ducks and chickens and geese and cows and pigs and rabbits have PERSONALITY.

If you raise a cow from the moment it was born, it's gonna be a LOT harder to kill it than it is to kill a wild cow (that is, assuming there were any wild cows). Similarly, it's EASY to go out into a swamp and shoot a duck. But when you decide that you want duck for dinner, and the most edible duck around happens to be a duck that you've cared for from the moment that it hatched from the damn egg, chopping its head off is gonna be hard.

However, in a sense, that IS good. Because when you raise your own meat, and get to know your meat, every animal that you eat is like a family member or a beloved pet. And in that case, killing it and eating it, even though it hurts your soul, is a valuable lesson that people tend to forget when they buy t-bone steaks or chicken McNuggets.

Ultimately, you realize that you love that chicken, and want to eat a chicken, but that there is absolutely no reason why your chicken has any more right toi live than the chicken that SOMEONE ELSE raised. Sure, it's HARDER for you to slaughter your own chicken. But why the hell should DEATH be easy? If you eat meat, you kill. End of story. Accept the death, embrace the sadness, and you'll be rewarded greatly. Because then every single animal that you eat feels like Holy Communion.

What do you do with the antlers?

People like to display them on the walls of their house. I think trophy hunting is a discrace. On a side note, Deer Jerkey is amazing.

Duck suddenly sounds great for dinner tomorrow.

What do YOU do with the antlers?

So basically, they become nothing more than ornaments, right?

Opinion vs Opinion.. an epic struggle. My view on things is that it's the foodchain, and meat tastes too damn good to pass up.Mystic_Legend

you're right because humans are supposed to eat meat.

whats wrong with vegans is the question

I guess whoever was in the room first should've made the decision whether you left or stayed. I'm a vegetarian too but I just don't like the taste of meat (or eating animals). The point is, it's not bad to eat meat, other animals would do it to us in a heartbeat if they needed food, but I can see where she's coming from about not wanting to eat it.

To the person a few posts above me, humans actually aren't supposed to eat meat, we're instinctively herbivores because of our blunt teeth. Of course since we have technology to kill animals we do that.

I do respect ppl who dnt eat meat (vegetarians, vegan), its their choice at the end of the day! However when someone comes over to 'your place' and says eating a 'burger' infront of them disturbs them is just wrong. I mean they dnt have the right. if they dnt like it, they can leave!

I guessed she's also never been to a resturaunt in her whole life :roll: What an effing whinger. It's her own problem that she left. But as for myeslf, I respect the life of other animals.......but it's also normal for humans to eat meat.....just like the countless other animal species do.
