Not less human, as we humans have always been known to exploit and control any resource we find.

And the biggest question: Does our intelligence make us superior to animals? Does our intellect give us the right to create things like "hog farms" and control other species?

What if some species of superior intellect came to Earth, would they have the right and privelege to raise us in small spaces where we don't have room to move and get crapped on all day by others????

I wonder what vegetarians taste like?

Define "human" and "cruelty." One person's definition of "cruelty" is different than another person's, and you are apparently using a very vague definition of human. I've known plenty of vegetarians who were abusive, liars, and greedy pigs. No more than meat-eaters, of course, but no less either. And if eating animals is so cruel, then many of the animals you love to protect are pretty cruel, too. So I don't think you make a very good point here.

So when a tiger eats a gazelle is it being in-animal? Because it's killing a defenseless gazelle against it's will? It's called the food-chain...everything needs to eat something else in order to survive.

Animals are here for our food source, and sometimes we are here for theirs. We are both here to gain something from one another. Whether finding out how certain jellyfish species stings could help medicine or why pigs have a cardiovascular system similar to ours. We are both here to learn from each other. Research on animals, is necessary for human life to continue. If you have a problem with that then stop being a human. You should always value human life over that of an animals.....

You vegetarians are no better than the carivores and omnivores. You go on mass vegetable genocides by eating countless amounts of poor defenseless vegetables that never stood a chance...

Less humans???? Less then animals!!!

wow, talk about stereotyping.. "vegetarians are such great human beings." I thought we are not supposed to do that? Anyway, Pol Pot, the Khmer Rouge leader had 2-3 million of his fellow countrymen killed or "purged" (Remeber the movie "the Killing Fields"?) and he was a strict vegan. So is Charles Manson, the convicted multiple murderer. Adolf Hitler, towards the end of his life (also when he was most insane. don't know if there is a correlation there) became a vegetarian. His last meal just before he blew his brains out, was spaghetti with marinara sauce, no meat. Timothy McVeigh reportedly requested a vegetarian last meal. So was Genghis Khan. Are they such great human beings?

There are different level of human consciousness: the human that exploit animals are on the bottom, the worse of a kind.

Cruelty is you so called animal lovers not doing your part to protect the deer from running onto the highway and getting pulverized by semi trucks. WHY DON'T YOU CARE?! Why aren't you out there saving the deer? Hypocrites!

Humans are genetically designed to eat meat.

Look at any number of caveman drawings....
do you see any pictures of eggplants and tomatos ?

Face it...

Vegetarianism is a concept that is only a couple hundred years old... humans have been consuming meat for thousands of years. You couldn't be a vegatarian prior to the industrial revolution, because you wouldn't have access to the variety of fruits and veggies that you have today to create a sustaining diet.

If you were a caveman, you would have eaten meat...probably uncooked, and you would have loved it....you would have craved it as a means for survival. PERIOD !

Animals are food. - FACT

No, IT doesn't. WE are HUMANS so, whatever WE do is HUMAN.

HUMANS are ANIMALS. ANIMALS eat ANIMALS.

I see your SPELLING has IMPROVED. GOOD job.
