Does eating MEAT makes us less INTELLIGENT?!


Question: Some scientists in Portugal and Australia think so.
I guess we have to turn ALL vegetarians if we want to avoid being labelled less intelligent.
Lucky me, I am a vegetarian.

Right hear I can prove that meat eaters are actually less intelligent and their level of tolerance is also very low.
See------- They couldn’t even guess from your question that you perhaps belong to a different country or could be that you speak a different language like me. English is not even a second language for me. I have learned English the hard way, all by my own efforts. My mother tongue is Punjabi/Hindi

Moreover, the bloodthirsty killers can never claim to be a better human being then the one who is merciful towards all living beings. We kill in self-defense they kill the defenseless innocents. Logically as simple as that!!!

Skylar Alyxis ---- You are right in saying, “Wonder how long it will take to sink into meat-eater's head.”

Donna. ~ A restaurant owner’s reaction is understandable. However, a biased statement cannot prove any thing.

Exsft~~~ you talk about 1000. I ask you to name only one vegetarian terrorist or suicide bomber (insane person) who kills innocents in the present scenario.

Actually quite the opposite. The evolution of hominid's brains into the current homo sapiens brain is credited to our ancestor's beginning to eat meat.

Eating meat also allowed hominids to occupy places on Earth that were denied them as herbivores.

Well meat clog arteries therefore reduce the blood through the body and the brain as well which has an affect on intelligence especially memory.

Is this question representative of superior intelligence?
Lucky you. ???

Most people know this question is (1) RIDICULOUS
and (2) DIVISIVE for a net of no gain - only more misunderstanding.

(Thanks Thirsty! Love your thoughtful, intelligent answers that really serve to help ((some)) people think.)

Well, I don't know about that.

Though it is true that a lot of very intelligent people were not meat eaters.

Thoreau, Einstein, Tolstoy, Gandhi, Dennis Kucinich, etc

But this is ignoring all the smart meat eaters.

All in all, what you eat is more relevant in judging a persons conscience not so much their intelligence. Unless you want to argue that the more conscience you are the more intelligent you'll be.

Um, there's a scientist somewhere who thinks everything. I bet there's a scientist in Hungaria who thinks the earth is flat and one in Maine who thinks men who eat frogs make better cheesecake.

I'm not sure if eating meat has an effect on intelligence... But there was a study done about IQ and vegetarianism. It found that intelligent children are more likely to follow a vegetarian diet when they become adults. Here's a link to the article:

Actually, judging from your question and manners, I would say the opposite since you've admitted to being a vegetarian. It made you less intelligent and boorish as well. But I'vebeen told not to stereotype so that makes you the exception rather than the rule I suppose

Name the top 1000 intelligent people who have positively influenced the human race in the last 500 years. And list how many were/are vegetarioans and how many are/were omnis. If the veggie list outnumbers the omni list, I will believe you. Otherwise, pffffft........ :)

No..but not eating meat does make you less of a man. Good luck building a set of mean biceps with your carrots and rice pudding, wimp.

Wellm it makes since to me.
I am on ehtat loves to research stuff and make sure I have knolodge before I preaxh about needed protein or whatever like some meat-eaters do. Though I am now a vegan, i was vegatarian for 2 years.
I can see why prehistoric 'humanoids' or whatever had to eat meat.
But the human mind has developed and our bodies have too. I don't see why our digestive systems should eat like savages anymore.
Gorillaz, which are 95% human, eat vegan, doesn't that strike as...well...odd. Since so many humans think we HAVE to eat meat to live?
Also, it's proven that humans who are vegatarian are much healtheir than meat-eaters.
Especially since 'mad-cow disease' came along, I was beggining to wonder.
I know that statistics have proven that children raised vegatarian or vegan are much smarter than meat-eater children.
So I agree with what you say.
Wonder how long it will take to sink into meat-eater's head.
=]
~Skylar~
PS: Also Alburt Einstein was a vegatarian too =p I guess that disproves all the meat-eaters that say vegatarians are dumb.

It very well could. Meat is packed with so many bad things..

I personally think that meat eaters are less intelligent, eaither that or really heartless.

No the protein in meat is a benefit to us. Don't believe everything you read. Everything in moderation is what's important here. I know nuts and tree nuts have their proteins as well but they don't quite have the same as some meat does.
There are many who disagree.
Post Script: if Skylar's spelling is any indication of intelligence then you vegans have been hoodwinked!!

No.

the study concluded that being intelligent often leads one to vegetarianism, not the other way around.

Give me a website or this is baloney and blasphemy because meat is SACRED

Most caucasians come from the northen hemisphere. If you want to survive (especially in the North)...you need protein so many of those scientists are just a bunch of dumbies. If Our ancestors didnt eat meat we would not be alive.
