# no, I'm saying that the ignorance
that these people live with is the problem.

And given the choice and information, more children would reduce the meat intake in their diet which would make them healthier and improve the planet by reducing the need for such a destructive level of animal farming.

# actually, a child needs meat.
but, not in such large quantities, like you said. about 1-3 times per week should do.

# no it doesn't
thats utter nonsense.

Protein is what it needs, how do you explain breastfeeding? that's not beefburgers.

Meat is not a requirement for the human diet at all.
I barely eat any and I'm perfectly well fed and alive.

# Yeah, my ex is veggie and he's perfectly fine.
I was veggie when I was with him and I wasn't so good, constantly ill all the time although that may have been down to depression. Hmmm.

*is sorry for eating meats*

# i used to be friends with a vegan.
but she was depressed all the time, despite having nothing to be depressed about. after a while i got fed up with her emo-like whining about all the drugs she was going to take in the weekend and how much she love-hated this one fellow and was going to take drugs with him, i told her to fuck off and sort her life out.

sorry about that.

# after a certain age you no longer need meat, that is true.
these days, you can indeed provide enough alternatives for meat, but meat still is an easier, slightly better choice.

# I didn't think I was
going by the tone of other posts I would say I responded equally or even in a restrained way.

The number of people shouting about how killing and eating animals is ace at me should really cause me to call them evil c***s in return, but theres no need for that as its simply one opinion against another and it would make little difference.

# I don't give a toss what you've said or had said to you by anyone else
Any reply that starts with 'do you see what you've done there though' is by default condescending in my book.

Anyway, let's get back to being funny.

# your default needs relaxing to give people the benefit of the doubt
It was in relation to his talking about a cg cartoon character. How on earth could it be taken as condescending?!

Stop looking at peoples opinions or discussions as arguements, theres none of that in what I've said and I certainly have not said anyone should give up doing what they want to do.

# of course, that is assuming that the last few hundred/thousand years of human development have also been flawed
man was not the first animal to kill another animal to feed and thus survive from,
it is part of a food chain, all we have done now is simply 'progress', (and I use that term loosely) through farming, the method behind it so that
we don't have to gather spears and go and catch something.
It seems wrong to condemn everyone who eats meat 'just' because it is not essential to the human diet.

# I never condemned anyone
All I've said is that I find it weird that you can have happy cartoon chickes on boxes of dead chicken and that you don't need to eat meat to survive.

# Excuse me but...
You have every right to be vegetarian.

Everyone has a choice. Just because you have a problem with eating something that was alive doesn't mean everyone else shouldn't.

Yes, intensive farming is bad. Yes, unhealthy meat is bad (much like unhealthy vegetables).

But that doesn't mean that it's fundamentally wrong to eat meat. Similarly just because you don't *have* to eat meat doesn't mean you *shouldn't*.

And I agree with everything Toasty says except about being a vegetarian.

# but by feeding them it...... you're choosing for them ;p
Isn't it better to not feed them it (giving them an ethically and karmically healthy option instead) and then when they are old enough to choose they can chomp down on whatever animal they like?

# But meat is tasty.
Except for the following types of meat that I don't like:

Pork
Lamb
Turkey
and all type of fish.

I like veal. It's yummy.

I agree though. It should be a ritual that on their 5th birthday children slaughter, butcher and cook their favourite type of animal.
