Humans eat far too much meat to the point of obesity. In 2000, the people suffering from overweight is one billion, and the people suffering from malnutrition is only 800 million.. Three from five Americans are overweight. One of every five is obese.
Did you know every cow belches and farts over a hundred gallons of methane a day? There are one and half billion cows in the world..

If God didn't want us to eat cows, he wouldn't have made them so tasty.

Eaten Veg or Vegan for health and environmental reasons is commendable and I have no issues with.

Doing the same because of the "emotions" of the animal is a symptom of being emotionally stunted. The anthropomorphic view of animals is ridiculous.

Animals kill and eat other animals. Plain and simple. Humans are animals.



The whole theory of whether or not "God made animals for us to eat them" won't even be touched on lol but, I will say though that it's been proven that eating flesh does more harm to us than good and we can most certainly get all of our necessary vitamins elsewhere. Anyone who argues against that is just in denial. We weren't necessarily built to eat meat, we actually identify almost completely with herbivores. Not all animals eat other animals

And why is it such a ridiculous idea that animals have emotions if we are indeed animals ourselves and we have them? I won't argue with that idea because it hasn't been completely proven yet but, I don't see how or why it would be seen as such an outlandish theory.

Harm to the point of what? If we weren't built to eat meat, wouldn't we all be under serious health conditions? I'm sorry but of my whole family line, we never once had a vegetarian and all my ancestors died of natural causes/age. Love animals, but wouldn't sacrifice my sane nutrition over emotions. Such is life. Like someone else said, animals eat animals. It's just a way of life to be accepted whether you like it or not.

WHERE DO U GET YOUR PROTEIN PURR? NUTS?



Legumes + grains = complete protein

It's easier to get enough protein as a vegetarian than it seems.

everything we need nutrition wise can be found in a vegetarian diet... everything. that idea that people will lack protein intake on a veggie diet is so false it's hysterical.
