Yes and I've said I don't care. It's nature.
I can honestly tell you now I still wouldn't think twice. I've injured animals before and tried to kill some so I don't care about it.
ETA:I'm fully aware I've said previously I'm against hurting animals for fun, I wouldn't do it now but I've done it when I was a bit younger. The point still stands.
the 'its nature' arguement doesn't wash with me. its human nature to fight to the death when sumone tries to steal ur cave and hav sex with ur cavewoman girlfriend but thats not socially accepted is it!! some of us have evolved a bit from there and moved on. developed morals and the like
What's your point?
I wonder, if you were an animal who had to hunt for its food (which would mostly be meat) would you do it?
Yes we've evolved, so what?
do you know any other mammal / omnivoir / carnivour on the plaent which has to resort to that?! - is it still natural to eat meat?!
i know, its still horrible. but its a step in the right direction
i don't agree with the way they're killed, they suffer and its horrible. theyre scared and in pain. they might only be animals but i find it incredibly sad
For a laugh, why else would anyone do it?
but i'm not! i don't think you'd like it if someone said you were on the same intellectual level as a pig! we're different, we're social and most of us like to think we have standards and morels. cruelty to animals seems to be an area where people forget this
What I meant was:
If you were an animal would YOU still go out hunting other animals for food?
Though we are very adaptable and can eat many other things too. However, I read somewhere that eating excessive meat is linked to many illnesses including cancer. Apparently, I will find sources later. Going to have a chinese now! (with meat in, but seriously, veggies in lemon sauce isnt the same as chicken in lemon sauce
don't get me wrong i'm not for animal cruelty, i love animals. but the fact of life is that many of them are born to be killed.
But I suck as a vegetarian. I only eat meat substitute most of the time. As much as the cruelness is, the tastiness is still a factor.
the idea of eating meat being natural - may be it once was but it isn't anymore.
yes i would. but i'm not just an animal am i? i'm a human
I was young and stupid. I wouldn't do it now.
The point I was trying to make is that if the situation came about, I wouldn't think twice about killing an animal to eat it.
i know and i fully agree with eating meat. i just don't agree with the cruelty involved
This is also what I think. But you obviously don't realise this...
depends why you're a veggie. i know someone who won't eat meat simply cause she doesn't like it. but she will eat fish and seafood and things with animal by-products in (gelatine and whatnot).
i'm not veggie, but i don't eat a lot of meat. i stopped eating red meat when i was 14. no moral objection, just the thought of eating something that bleeds on your plate doesn't do it for me.
i will eat chicken and turkey, and i'm partial to a bacon butty (is bacon a red meat? maybe i lie?), but i have to be in the mood for it, and the less it looks like bits of animal, the better. i hate meat on the bone, or anything with veins in :yuck:
if there is a veggie option on the menu that i like, i would probably choose that over a meat option 80% of the time.
so you cannot agree with one and not the other.
you eat meat - something has to loose its life for you to have some lunch. - end of.
and what about dairy? - there is a huge amount of cruelty involved in the dairy industry... does that bother you?
It rocks! :yippe:
:yes: Aumsing definatly. Arguing over food.
And I love it.
Peace out dudes! :thumb:
