r3vegans? veggies?

Our bodies just aren't made to process red meat.

But God gave people lambs, which are red meat. Why would he do that if he did not design us to digest them!?!

Holy crap, and i thought I couldn't think you were any further off the deep end!
hahahaaha. Animals are so damn tasty.

This is one argument that you're not going to win. To say veganism is something for the wackos (this is how i took your statement) is very much an uneducated assumption.

Veganism is tough as shit. To be vegan means you are 100% against the killing of a living being for the satisfaction of yourself.

We have the technology now a days that allows humans to be 100% healthy and still be a vegan. So, I ask the question again. Why kill a living being for the sake of your own satisfaction when we have the means of living a healthy lifestyle without doing so?

I myself am not vegan and probably will never be, but I do on the other hand understand what it is about and how powerful it is. Living a vegan lifestyle is living a life of unselfishness (to a degree, as far as food/clothing is concerned).

That is simply hard as fuck in my books.
Props to any vegans out there.



P.s This is not by any means a promotion for veganism. Economics comes into play. Being a vegan would be very expensive, it just simply can’t be for everyone. Maybe if society as a whole converted.. but that will never happen.

First let me say, I take no sides on this issue. I do the best I can to eat healthy, and I don't adhere to any specific set of rules. My girlfriend is pescatarian for that matter.

But for arguments sake, don't you think that eating other animals is part of the natural order of life? Given, I think the way that we raise animals to be killed is a paradox in itself, but imagine when the Native Americans hunted buffalo to survive...was it wrong back then?

Where do we draw the line? It's a fuzzy area no doubt about it.

Veganism is not cheap. That is one of the reasons I stopped going that route.

I only did it to lose weight - and I dropped like 15 lbs in a month doing zero other changes to my lifestyle. I didn't do it to object to the killing animals to eat in the least - I did it as a healthy alternative to be leaner and more fit - and it WORKS like nothing else if you can handle it.

I don't understand people who think that they are morally superior because they don't use any products from animals, including food.

[Il Duce]

if god didnt want us to eat animals he wouldnt have made them out of meat

Would you like to talk about Jeebus?

Eat them and enjoy the luxury of being on top of the food chain. If the animals could eat you, they would.

Don't you guys watch shark week!?

Hahhaha. You're trying to be a vegan snob and not even vegan! Shutup fag

How are we on the top of the food chain if many large (and small?) animals can kill and eat us without a problem?

Can you go kill and eat a hippo with your bare hands?

Are you going to argue that we're not on the top of the food chain? Being on the top doesn't always mean that we are the largest in size. We can arm ourselves, they can't. They lose. We are higher on the food chain. GET IN MA' BELLAY!

Look at Lions.. they aren't as large as some of the animals they kill, but are higher on the food chain.

I don't think guns qualify us to be on the top of the food chain because we're not armed 100% of the time. Bottom line is any person out in the wild is pretty much fucked. 99% of the people on this forum would probably die while searching for nuts and berries because the only thing they can catch is a toad or a butterfly.

Limb + knife = spear, + animal = dinner

I'm almost 100% certain that you couldn't outrun anything that's chasing you. Let alone have the skills to build a weapon that actually works.

Oh noes!

If we were in olden days, everyone alive would have had to been able to kill game or know friends who did. Indians chased buffalo and deer, not that hard.

But Africans had to survive running from Lions and Tigers and Cheetahs, no wonder they are so fast!

If we weren't on top of the food chain, we'd be living in fear of all of these other animals and generally be non-functional. Again, being on "top" doesn't always mean you're bigger or faster or badder - it means you can kill what is below you. The food chain isn't a list of largest to smallest animals - it's about what can eat what.

These "guns" and "tools" that have been referenced are WHY we are on top of the food chain.

I'm just saying - until you guys start killing and eating bears with your bare hands you're not on the top of the food chain. without bullets you're pretty much fucked. You would lose in a cage match with a bear.
