Should Meat Eaters eat Meat?!
Should Meat Eaters eat Meat?
Why should vegetarians respect meat eaters when they contribute to global warming, skyrocketing health costs, starvation around the world and animal cruelty? Eating flesh is a sick weird act. And they call vegetarians a cult. How absurd....What meat eaters do is barbaric, vulgar and sick.
Do you agree or disagree with my soapbox statement?
Cheers mates!

Cheers Where the hell do you base these "facts" from? Starvation around the world? Who is starving because I am eating steak for dinner?
barbaric, vulgar, and sick? You are the dumbest person I have ever come across. Let people do what they want, you tree hugging pu$sy. You are nothing but a piece of **** who expresses yourself on the internet because you don't have the balls to do it in person. I'd like to see you go up to me or any normal person while they're eating dinner at a steakhouse and tell them that what they are doing is vulgar and sick. Now go jump in your Prius and "save the environment" while you're at it. You are a sad excuse for a man. WELLL YEEESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(MEAT)-(EATER)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do what Ron White does...I help relieve all of that global warming and flatulence by eating the cows!!!
Methane is a problem? How many cows are there in the world? How many other animals are everywhere? And billons of people?
So, if we killed all the cows, there wouldn't be any more methane gas and global warming will stop?
Read more from the Meteorologist William Gray (the one who accurately predicts how many hurricanes we have each year). Humans should not give themselves so much credit as to have the ability to change global weather. Having a few million cars in one area, along with all of our other sources of greenhouse gases is not going to change the temperature of the ocean by even 1 degree hundreds of miles from even the biggest city. Cow flatulence isn't going to do it either.
As far as a this so called "global warming", and the north polar ice cap shrinking, then why is the ice growing at the south pole where this ozone hole is supposed to be?
The reason is, it is a normal cycle of the Earth. Mother Nature has been doing this for a long time. Let her do her thing. well true meat eaters eat meat but not global warming dont u think thats just a tad absurd EAT MEAT, IT'S GOOD FOR YOU!!! Agree Definitely Well it is true but then use must think of the buissness men and farmers yeah yeh
go veg ? Methane gas is the #1 contributor to the hole in the ozone. And where does methane come from? I love vegetarians. They are delicious! respect the meat you eat You should accept meat eaters, they getting their protein.
And vegetarians should be respected too, the getting their vitamins, doctor, both are good.
And vegetarians are killing plants, rather than animals. hunni - wtf!!! seriously, get a grip!!! veggies contribute - hell, everyone does!! dont u know that most of our fruit and veg is transported from other countries?? ie a contribution to global warmin!!! never mind the day to day things u do, like heat ur home to drive to goin on holiday to dryin ur hair (see where im goin here???) Skippy say if God didnt want us to eat animals, he wouldnt have made them out of meat.
Skippy say really you vegicultists dont have to respect us at all. We sure as hell dont respect you.
Thats all Skippy have to say about that answer is yes i don t tell you to eat meat and you don t.. tell me to eat veg,, ok Yes but you once used to eat meat which means your just like one of us you are responsible for eating a dead animal. And does it really matter if you eat meat they're dead. Yes / Its fine. I love ,meat The more the better. A lovely plate of roast beef yorkshire pud and all the veg Beautiful. Give me a good Sunday roast. Lovely Jubbly. no i dont agree meat eaters contribute to the world to just sometimes we dont mind some meet it is not sick it is life there is a food chain and we are at the top. most animals eat meat you may not know this but even chimpanses eat monkeys There's a place for all of God's creatures....right next to the mashed potatoes & gravy. since the beginning of time we have been eating meat, this is nothing new sweetheart. god made us to have dominion over all living animals in this world for survival, and animals were known to be the plant eaters. only until recently, it looks as if eating meat is a bad thing, due to all these harmful chemicals, steroids and unfair environmental conditions being placed on animals. and eating flesh is good, if it's seasoned and cooked by the way...lol It is an opinion as you clearly stated. I don't eat meat either, I have my views and chose vegatarian for personal reasons. It is sorta silly to state some of the things you did like why should we respect meat eaters ??? We as a people "should" respect everyones differences. Can you imagine how weird and boring these states would be if EVERYONE thought and did the same thing??? Sounds sorta robotic to me.. like mmmmmmm .......like......communistic!!...
Do you like oral S*X??? some could have the same barbaric views about that... everyone is different. THANK GOODNESS
** one more thing** People on here keep saying we are on the top of the food chain and we are supposed to eat meat. Why then did our human bodies evolve to have FLAT TEETH?? Only animals that eat strictly vegtable matter have flat teeth. To me that is all the proof I need that I wasn't designed to eat flesh. yes!!!!!!!! LOL Meat is good for you..
Sure meat can look gross but it tastes fantastic. Why is it a barbaric act? Just because the animal you are eating has feelings or somewhat of a personality? Brocolli doesn't have either but it is still alive. Now on some level if a tomatoe could talk, would that make you not want to eat it? I say, all creatures big in small have a place on this planet which is right next to my mashed potatoes. I'm a vegan and I disagree. There is so much more to respect or disrespect in a person than what they eat. Someone would have to do much worse than eat meat to earn my disrespect.
Some of the people I respect and admire most in the world are meat eaters, some are vegan or vegetarian. Here's where I stand on this issue:
Yes, I think it's cruel the way animals are killed for food. BUT I don't personally kill the animals. If I had to, I would be a vegetarian unless I was dying - I would kill the animal humanly. But I don't so I can't automatically stop eating a food I've been eating for the past 20 years of my life. For example, we all know how cruel the baby cow is killed for veal. I've never had veal; therefore, I do not know what it tastes like. So, I will never eat it because I was not brought up eating it.
Another thing is animals kill each other for food. Humans are animals too, some more than others...lol. I, as a meat eater, would never be cruel to animals. I own 9 cats and love them all and would never wear fur. That is more sick and barbaric than eating meat. We have canine teeth for a reason. Well, I do indulge in the eating of animal flesh. I don't consider vegetarians or vegans cultish though. Animals can be used by people the world over, not for their slaughter and sale, but, can help provide milk, and eggs. Important sources of protein for undernourished peoples. If these animals are cared for properly their offspring can be passed on, and can provide a lasting renewable source for these peoples. Do Americans eat to much meat? Most likely, but it is hardly a sick act, it's been done since the dawn of mankind, and I doubt anyone is going to stop it soon. Interesting stance. I think that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I myself am a carnivore and love it. I also respect vegans and ova-vegetarians views on WHY they choose not to eat meat.
I don't see how a person eating meat is leading to starvation around the world...lord knows I'm not hungry at all...neither are my kids...
And since this is the vegan site I won't get into animal processing because I'm sure that it's considered grotesque, but I doubt that it's considered CRUEL otherwise ASPCA and other animal rights groups would be all over it. So...no I don't agree with that either.
And how does eating meat contribute to global warming? It actually controls the animal population other wise we'd be bunking with the cows....
I think that you would incite more "flames" if you will...if you actually listed something to support your claims. Or simply something other than reversing what meat eaters think of vegans.
Either way, I'm sitting here thinking....who cares? Think what you want...it doesn't bother me. And can someone please pass the STEAK sauce.....I've got a nice bloody rare steak to gobble up for dinner!! LOL Meat eaters "contribute to global warming, skyrocketing health costs, starvation around the world, and animal cruelty?"
Here's a statement to you "the ignorant feed the ignorant." You wouldn't be here today if the generations preceding you didn't eat meat.
Where do you base your information from? Or can I sum it up for you in a word "ignorant." Nice opinion. Very inflammatory.
Unfortunately humans are omnivores. We are designed to eat a variety of foods, including meat.
Lots of people contribute to global warming, including everyone that drives a car.
Health costs are largely in the hands of the health providers and insurance companies.
The problem of world hunger is a lot deeper than someone having a steak once in a while.
Animal cruelty is to do with how the meat industry meets the demand - those using a product do not generally dictate the process by which it is manufactured - not in real life.
I have never called a vegetarian a cult. It is a personal decision and I am happy to honor that decision. My decision to eat meat is also a personal decision. You are simply calling me barbaric, vulgar and sick because you don't agree with my decision. My decision is as valid as yours, but you are the one that is being insulting, not I.
What meat eaters do is completely natural. Would you try to make a tiger a vegetarian? No? Why not? If your answer is that, as an animal, it cannot discern that what it is doing is 'wrong' then you are ignoring that it does so because its biology requires it.
It is more likely that the main reason for most of the difficulties that you have described is not that meat eaters indulge in their natural diet, but rather that the human race has over-bred without concern for the balance of nature.
Are you helping to conserve the planet by not helping to overpopulate it? I know that I am.
