Also, the way meat is grown nowadays is extremely questionable by all nutritionists (who don't work for the meat companies).

All these dumb asses worrying about taste. Booh-fucking-hoo.

If it was recognized as a moral issue, money would be put into the research.

At least, eating other mammals should be done away with. That's the worst meat to eat anyway. We frown at Asian countries eating cats and dogs. It is no different here. A pig is just like a dog in many ways. (Hilariously, if we eliminate consumption of beef, we'll cut back on global warming.)

i dont actually care one way or the other, i see benefits to being a veggie T and not and simply choose to continue eating meat since its simpler, easier and much cheaper ATM. just wanted point, that you are on some comedic type shit to compare those 2.

also that joke about whippin people, on the internet people like to get those muscles so i shrug it off but if someone made that comment in front of me out of carelessness like i_guy said would probably take offense to it.

It's not a vegetarian plight. It is a life plight.

Vegetarians aren't the ones fucked, animals are. Vegetarians point that out. You have failed to see the point, Vegetarians are not equivalent to slaves. Vegetarians are equivalent to slavery abolitionists. The animals are equivalent to slaves. And just as slavemasters were racist, most meat-eaters are speciesist.

Oh god lol.....

Animals are not equivalent to salves. at least not the ones we eat. there equivalent to the corn, potatoes and whatever other vegetable that grows. NOT FUCKIN SLAVES. its not that i failed to see the point i was smart enough to sees the point you were trying to make was used in a way that made you look like a fuckin smug jerk; like most vegeterians. once again you are CHOOSING to do something. My ancestors yeah they were born into doing something against there will until they died. your move

And by the way, actually animals are equivalent to slaves in their use. They are both used as property for profit.

They are simply slaves that we eat and wear (among other things). It's a holocaust, plain and simple.

Isn't that superiority which makes us different from other species ? Why succumb to primal instincts when we are homo sapiens ?

If we were to do so, everything would benefit. If we don't, the annihilating chaos will continue. We can either help prevent the annihilation or simply have no hand in it. But we should not contribute to it.

However, I am not trying to say that just because we have the ability to do something, that we should do it. I'm simply saying if we have the ability to do something, and we have good reason to do something wherein all things benefit, then it is in all's best interest to do that wise something.

As human beings we defy the force of an annihilating universe. That is the beauty of our nature. We create and construct against the grain of a destructive reality. It is easy to continue this destructive reality in the realities we create. But our demise is in this conduct. Therefore we must elevate to the highest level of logic to undermine the annihilation. Sadly we never do that.

The higher levels of logic conclude we are unjustified in roasting other creatures at all. Assuming we cherish our lives, we have to find an equilibrium to sustain our lives and in doing so we should only do what is needed though a controlled symbiosis. Factory farming animals is not what is needed. It is parasitic.
