I'm upset by the brutallity of the way animals are killed, but killed for no reason?

What are they f**king stupid? They are killed for food.

You know, the way predators survive.

Well, you can take your triple bypass and shove it up your ass when your old because the anti-carnivourous safeguard nature, god, gods, put on meat. It's not funny or okay! People just don't see it.

If you've ever seen an animal be slaughtered, ...how should I put this... it's a really God-awful experience.

So, yeah, I'll give animal activists that much credit...

Yes but do we need to eat meat to survive? I sure as hell don't. YOu can keep on with your barbarous ways but at least I sleep at night knowing I'm not a murderer.

100% false. Plants have no consciousness. Plants have no senses. Plants don't have any sort of system of touch. They don't have brains. They are not concious. I hate when people use this stupid arguement.

But plants are alive. Brains or not, nervous systems or not, they are breathing, living, growing things. What is false about that? When you eat a salad something had to die.

No we don't NEED meat to survive. But were weren't born herbivores.

That's why we have canines.

Look, if you are alive, you are food to something else.

Stop saying murdering. Murder is the planned killing of one human being by another human being. I know your Disney-fied little world of cute little wabbits with large brown eyes and mouses that can talk seems to suggest that all animals are humans... they are not.
Just because you find it appaling and disgusting does not make it murder.

Some points here make it sound as if it's absolutely necessary to eat meat for our survival. It's just a matter of choice. But it's the way they kill and raise the animals is what gets me. They raise and kill them as if they don't have the right to live, the only right these animals have is to be slaughtered in a terrible way and to put on our plate. Who are we to make this decision? Who are we to raise them like this? No one. The only real difference I see between us and those animals (at 1:30AM :o ;)) is our intelligence and size. I have a friend who has an IQ below 90, should I eat him too? ;)

our tailbones actually aide our lower extremities with balance in concert with our inner ear. Back in the day, it's believed, that we actually had tails. As they became useless, we lost them, created a rescessive prone we call the tail bone. Tonsils capture high profile bacteria and prevent such from reaching deeper into our esophogus. Not useless at all.

No... people used to consider them not human because they found it convenient, genetically (the only way which matters with defining species), they are and always will be. And animals, such as dogs, cats, cows are not, and never will be.


Disney sucks, I'm not supporting child labor;) .

I do have some complaints about how some, or even most of the animals are treated before slaughter, which is why I try to make sure I know my sources. So I do agree a bit there.


Yet you all find something wrong with killing humans for food.


I find it murder, and it destabilises the social structure we live within, which the killing of animals does not.
Or maybe you're particularly fond of anarchy...? what do I know...


Kill the rich and feed them to the poor. How's that?


Yeah, I'm pretty sure that'd be murder.

I think it's sound advice. I appreciate the fact that you seem to think you're saving innocent animal lives or you just find the practice of killing them for food to be appalling or unnecesary, but to each their own.

Humans have needed animal flesh to survive since the beginning. Our bodies were made to be omnivorous, not herbivorous. The fact that we can farm veggies doesn't change that quality within our bodies.

I believe strongly in Chinese medicine and philosophy of health, concerning the Qi (chi) of the body, the Yin and Yang. Balance is key to a healthy life. To go extremely one way (no meat at all) or the other way (McDonald's everyday, etc) is simply not logical or healthy for your body. Moderation is most important.

My partner and several other medical professionals I have known have treated fat ass pigs who refuse to eat healthy and only eat meat and fat every day, and they have treated vegetarians who were healthy in their younger years, and who have developed back pains, weak bones, BAD EYESIGHT, anemia, fatigue, etc, when they reach middle age and beyond.

It works both ways. Any wise, educated person of the past or present, no matter WHAT their background, will tell you that ANYTHING in excess is NOT good for you. Even working out too much is bad for your body. Moderation is they key to a healthy life. Including what you do, or don't, eat.

You know, I don't believe it's impossible to live from a strictly non-meat diet and still avoid all of those problems you listed. Because back pains, weak bones, etc come from a lack of certain minerals, protein, etc over time, not the lack of meat specifically. I do believe it's hella-hard to come up with a diet that will help you avoid these problems though...

Personally, I just don't give enough of a **** to go through all that trouble. Let me say that again, I frankly don't care enough about wether animals live or die to start changing my diet in any radical way, or for that matter give up the sweet taste of meat ;) ... some people may find it heartless or immoral, or whatever... but once again, I really don't give a ****.

I usually don't eat red meat though (only chicken (or bird meat) and fish), but that's because I feel healthier as a result of it, not because I care about the big eyed cows.

There's no need to think I'm saving animals. I stopped eating meat in thinking that when I was younger, but realized that just because I stopped eating it doesn't mean farmers wouldn't stop farming them. I just never had the heart to go back.

You're right, I probably am unhealthy due to my diet. But keep in mind that veg and fruit do provide some of the vitamins that's in meat. It's either trying to eat as much as you can of the right vegetable or taking those vegetarian vitamin tablets, which I do... when I remember. :o ;)

Thanks though. Your insight has helped me see this situation in a different light. But for now, I'm sticking to vegetarianism. ;)

Plants produce electrical impulses, on similar wave lengths as a brain. Just because we don't fully comprehend their life, doesn't mean they don't have one to lose. They reproduce, have defense mechanisims, and feelings as far as we can tell. Plants respond to human emotions and give off elevated "brain waves" when in duress.

"Buddhism has the characteristics of what would be expected in a cosmic religion for the future: it transcends a personal God, avoids dogmas and theology; it covers both the natural & spiritual, and it is based on a religious sense aspiring from the experience of all things, natural and spiritual, as a meaningful unity" Albert Einstein

No, when you go on and on about how "MeAt Is MuRdEr"[which has been proven false btw]and calling everyone who eats meat a murderer, that is forcing your beliefs on people. You don't want to eat meat? Great, good for you, but shut the hell up about it. No one wants to read your whinning about it.

No one? It seems to be a pretty large thread. Get out if you don't like it. You can say what you want but IMO Meat is f**king murder. You obviously hate other people's opinions and have some kind of authoritarian complex. If you don't like my "whining" then get the f**k out of here.

No i didn't call anyone wrong. I called 2 people ignorant. Must i get definitions which are so popular in this thread.

And I am split about pets actually. I'm not a big fan of cages. But if they aren't used as punishment and used to keep your pet safe I don't see much of a problem as long as you let them out alot. I guess it's okay to have pets or companions(as i think of them as) as long as you take care of them and don't exploit or abuse them.

defenders, I respect the fact that you dont eat meat and that you care for animals.

What i dont respect is the fact that even before people started flaming you, you were generalizing people that eat meat as ignorant and stupid. If you want to get a point across, thats not a great way to do it.

Maybe you need to do a bit more research because although years ago it was thought that being a vegetarian was a more healthy way of life, it has been researched and found that it is not. vegetarians tend to have more problems as they age from lack of nutrients found in many meats. In todays world, there are many ways to get those nutrients without eating meat, but most vegetarians dont take the time to learn what they lack and take the supplements. As someone pointed out, it is unhealthy to live stricktly on a meat diet as well as it has its own problems. The point is, we are designed to live on a balanced diet of meat and vegetables and it has been that way since probably the beginning of man.

the difference between how we eat meat now and how we did as a young species is that, before, all or as much of the animal was used and did not go to waste, now we are much more brutal and wasteful with our animals and obviously that is not right. Swearing off meat and calling us all murderers is not the answer though.

and that song is kinda lame, so i doubt anyone cares who sings it.

It is a fascist ideal to want everyone to think like you. I will go back and start quoting you, if you really want to see how you are acting like a fascist, a dictator deciding what's right for everyone in the world. You know, your arguments are non-sense at times. Sure, we don't "have" to eat meat, and we have found ways to supply the body with what it needs from meat. The same could be said about sex. We don't have to have sex to reproduce anymore, so should we deny our nature, our very biology as a species?

You are very free to have your views, I will not judge you, but don't judge me. You did make generalized statements, especially about people that called you on the "plants are living things" argument. You said anyone who believed that was a moron....so Native Americans are morons yeah? I am a moron? Many pagan belief structures respect all life plant and animal. I know my place in the food chain, I respect it, and I give thanks to those lives that end to further mine. I also am willing to accept that sooner or later I will become food for worms, bugs and bacteria. The energy that was me will then move on and sustain new life, and go back on up the food chain, till it reaches the people that come after me. It is a natural cycle.

I don't appreciate your value judgements against me for having a balanced diet. I also don't appreciate the lack of regard you have for plant life. Plants respond to harm (pain), they give off waves similar to brainwaves. Suffering and pain are electro-chemical responses to stimuli. Plant expereince similar reponses to stimuli...so since you cannot ask a plant if it feels pain, even though it isn't in the same way you or I do, you can't assume they don't and dismiss their right to life.

1)Sex doesn't involved killing
2)I didn't say plants aren't living things.
3)I am an environmentalist and I have high regard for plant life. I think any tree that is cut down should be replaced. So if you want to say I have no regard for plant life, thats fine, but it's incorrect.
4)I called those people morons because they use the arguement of plant life being the same as animal life. I don't know how many times I need to say that plants and animals are nothing alike.


Now next time you try and assume things about people, don't. Say I have a lack of regard for plant life is insane! I am a freakin' environmentalist for god's sakes!

Well I DO consider them the same as animal life, and so do many, many other people. So as I said, are me and people of my religion morons? Native Americans are morons? I will now start quoting all the ^_^^_^^_^^_^ you said that you are refusing to own up for, since you won't take responsibility for it. That is unless you have now edited them.

Well, you are getting into a really sticky mess of words here Defenders. You can say that meat eating would feel barbaric to you, if you were to do it and not offend people. But you called everyone who eats meat barbarians. You also called us savages at one point. Then you called those of us that hold plant life on the same level as animal life morons, even though there is evidence to show that plants do have feelings. So yes, you were trying to pick a fight with your first posts. You were using shock tactics, and that is very unbecoming. There is a reason why I dislike PETA, the NRA and Pro-Life extremists...they are fanatics that don't care what lies they tell or who they offend or attack in the pursuit of their cause.

No I am not OK with it, but you should expect such treatment when you get in people's faces. Either grow a thicker skin and stop acting like you are the victim here, when you attacked first, or be the bigger man and admit you were wrong and move on. You waved your own t-bone by insulting them and calling them murderers.

High level spokespeople of PETA have said they would gladly kill every meat eater. They also pass out terror producing, and vulgar material to people's children. PETA is a terrorist organization and though I dislike both groups, at least the NRA aren't targeting children. The NRA are just idiotic, and lose credibility by boycotting gun makers for including gun locks free of charge.

Okay, despite your obvious hatred of typing correctly, I may be able to translate this and give you a responce. I'm not preaching to you, I'm just stating my point and people are so offended when I try and challenge their lifestyle. I don't blame you, you were probably raised with meat and it's hard not to eat. You have to see things through my eyes and you'll see what I get so pissed off. I see meat and to me its pain and suffering of an innocent animal. You blatantly cannot see this and you continue to attack me with the bible.

I have problems with PETA too! I admitted I was wrong a while back but you missed that(maybe purposely). And not all PETA members are terrorists. I think it's stupid to kill or hurt in the name of animal rights. I'm a pacifist anyway. So don't associate me with idiots. It's like saying all Muslims are like the terrorist extremists.

Then here is an idea for you...file petitions, talk to your state representatives, lobby to change the system and the way livestock is treated, but don't attack those that are following their natural instinct to eat meat. Don't label all meat eaters under the same category and don't make assumptions about people. What you see as deplorable conditions that livestock is kept in, well that disturbs me too. Which is why I will only eat meat from certain sources that have adopted more human procedures. Either way, you shouldn't assume things about people...someone told me that...a few posts back ;)

Exactly, but not enough is being done to stop these conditions. I intend to protest the uncoming bear hunt in my state, NJ. It is useless and stupid. No one has been killed by a bear and it's insane. The contractors own NJ and it's horrible. They have so many useless buildings that can be knocked down instead of trees. Btw, free ranged chick is a really great improvement to other form of animal farming.
