Poll: Non Veggies...Prepare your rebuttals

[sallene]

I'm thinking BS on the friend account.
Also, the reason people have weight problems is because they couple overconsumption with an increasingly sedentary lifestyle, which, in short words, means they EAT TOO MUCH and DON'T GET OFF THEIR FAT ARSES.

Pretty much this reason for people being overweight.

If you consume 3000 calories a day but your body only expends 1200 of those calories, that 1800 that is left is going to be stored as fat.

How we can come so far yet fail on this issue when it comes down to basic math that everyone should know is beyond me.

Besides, how do you know vegetables don't feel pain when you rip them out of the ground?

They lack a nervous system?

No, they have a rudimentary one, as has been previously stated.

... pretty sure they don't... I don't remember seeing nerves on any plants in my biology text book.

I believe they do. Or at least some do. It's how some plants can respond to attackers with natural defense mechanisms.

Uh, no. No they don't. Checked wikipedia which has no mention of plants in the nervous system part. I think it what you are talking about there is sort of like a reflex arc (like instinctively moving your hand away when someone sticks a pin in it, not to do with pain! just the pressure). It isn't processed like in the nervous system where pain is then added as a response from the brain (which plants don't have).

I am asuming its the racism part?
Nope,saddly true he is an IRA supporter and openingly stated today when questioned about which IRA he support he stated and this is a quote "Provisional of course,the side which does the good job,killing the Brits"

Not exactly what comes to everyones mind with the word racism,but it applies here.

Being a vegetarian is unhealthy.

woah,waoh,woah not true eating nothing but biscuits which are suitable for vegetarian(be sure to check them,they are on the fairly likely list to not be suitable) otherwise being vegetarian has proven to been MORE healthy,what maybe you might be mistaken in is the lack of essitenal acids some veggies may not be informed about,the main source of it commonly is meat,I get mine from nuts(I eat ALOT of nuts,more than I have to,help balance the weight issue)

lower chance of food poisoning too 95% of that comes from meat

Now Vegan is another story,alot of VEGANS so a lack of calcium.

just FYI.

Okay, retype what you just said using proper punctuation, like periods.

Because it's difficult to understand what the hell you are saying.

Scary, isn't it?

I don't object to the killing of animals, it's the way the natural world works. The animals in question are killed relatively quickly, and, one hopes, with the minimum suffering

I do, however, object to the slow cooking to death of an innocent animal for no reason whatsoever. The killer in question was doing it for sheer malice, and that is just wrong

True. Also, I question your statistics.

*yawn* Another boring thread about a vegetarian complaining about humans doing what they evolved to do. We are omniverous, evolution/god (both apply in this case) wanted us to eat meat as well as vegetables, thats why we have incisors, kanines and various molars.

But if we're going to go down the road that eaitng meat is murder then the simple counter of eating vegetables is murder as well because they are both living and intelligent.

es they are intelligent because they grow towards sunlight. If they didn't have some form of base intelligence then they would'nt be able to do that.

So yeah, if you are gonna complain about me murdering cows to live I'm gonna complain about you murdering carrots etc to live.

The only people who can get away with complaining are Fruitarians who only eat what has dropped from the trees already.

 

[Cliff_m85]

I'd eat a cat or a dog, no problem.

And you can turn anything painless into sounding excruciating.


Two shears of metal rip through the human body. -Cutting a toenail

A finger gouges away into a orifice in the human body, ripping away a chunk along with hair.
-Picking my nose

A nail through the head at fast speed is not cruel, since it kills the cow instantly.

...Which has often already started to ferment, and we all know what happens then. It's funny to see them permanently sauced

[jasoncyrus]

as Maddox Said, for every animal you dont eat, ill eat 3.

I'll go one beter and offer to eat 5. Pretty damn sure I could cram 5 cows into my diet. Beef ftw!

EDIT:

I'll state what many have stated before me.

You stick to your diet A'll stick to mine. Otherwise I might decide to try the soylent Green route and see how you taste instead.

 

[jamesworkshop]

You see Loads of people prancing about forums and such making a big uproar about the fact t hat a kitten was burnt in an oven or such.as much as i hate the idea of this, my complaint is the fact that it is these people who eat truckloads of chicken everyday...

Their most common argument is that "Cats are not meant for eating".so tell me this...how come cats are in this category but cows, pigs and chickens are not??they eat dogs in Thailand, and i dont see a lot of uproar on this...kids in American neighborhoods beat up little kittens in a bag pretty often i hear form my cousin there, no uproar.

for those who dont know, a cow is killed by running a huge nail through its skull??and a chicken is killed by cutting its throat and letting it bleed to its death??wheres the "Humanity" in that??If you dont believe me check out the wiki on slaughterhouses :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slaughterhouse#Process

Also when vegetarian food is in plenty,and tastes like chicken if prepared the right way, i dont get why more people arnt turning veg...please non veggies, enlighten me.

well they didn't eat the cat so it was very wastfull of them you cook it you eat it its as simple as that
I don't care i've killed animals bare handed doesn't bother me in the slighest

 

[Gxas]

snip

May I inquire as to why you care what we eat?

Or are you just trying to start a debate for the sake of trolling? I see that you've only replied once and haven't addressed anyones arguments against yours.

Please, enlighten me as to why you care.

And now put in spaces, and then correct your spelling.

I would esimate I burn around 1 calorie a day with my unfitness but ever seen turning veggie I have to keep an eye on my weight making sure I get enough,that was the point I was trying to make and I was talking about personal experience and than applying it to others,maybe in the wrong tone if this came from it.

 

[antipunt]

Omigosh! There's hypocrisy in our world!

You're doing your part by not eating meat, and you're also being a dick and throwing it in the face of the infidels. Good job!

lol, I noticed that too

 

[Bored Tomatoe]

The problem is that the kitten was killed in a very cruel manner for no fucking reason!
Seriously, I don't like the idea of eating cats, but I'm not going to stop anyone. I would feel the same if someone had beaten a cow to death and left it to rot.
