People who say animals are treated bad ither way animals will be treated bad, even if theyre not animals people eat. I love when people say animals get treated badly So keep weaing your leather shoes and jackets. I bet you kill flies and roaches, mice all the time, theyre animals too. Oh and there are alot of animal products in make up and soaps and stuff. I wouldnt say its healthier either, say i ate meat once a week or once a month would that be worse than eating none ever? Only reason i see to be a vegetarian is the taste of meat and saving money and maybe the cooking process. Plants also get sprayed with chemicals and whatnot. Even if you dont eat the meat the cow will live and then die and someone will eat it, people or other animals. We wernt put at the top food chain to eat vegetatables! and people who claim they are vegetarian but eat fish, just stop it please.
LOL natalia ok first of all I NEVER said animals are not treated bad. I said animals are treated bad, even if they are not meant to be eaten. Like dogs and cats. The video means nothing when animals everywhere are being mistreated. NOT just edible animals. I did not assume vegetarians dont wear leather. I said if they feel about killing animals they should feel bad about wearing leather. in your 3rd paragraph i said would it hurt to eat meat once a week or once a month. Would it be such a difference to my health. Animal cruelty and eating meat is completely different. So if i go fishing and decide to eat it, thats animal cruelty? “vegetarians who still eat fish are called pesco-vegetarians. ” Look up vegetarian in the dictionary. Im not judging anyone im just asking a question. Human teeth not designed to eat meat has no relevance to the question. It says why are you a vegetarian. learn a little before you jump to ridiculous conclusions about things you obviously know nothing about.
strawberry big mac you only answered one of my questions, which you did not even answer. and i know about other proteins Im asain so i eat rice just abuot everday. My parents puts beans in them. I eat tofu probably once a week. I like it actually.
Maybe if you answer the rest of my arguements ill give more?
TO natalia
ok i agree with the first part of your 1st paragraph, except for the fact that you need to kill a cow to make leather and you can still eat its meat, and when vegetarians say they dont want animal cruelty they dont think about animal cruelty in their own neighborhood, and think about cows which were used for you shoes, belts, briefcases, jackets, w/e. its ok for the cow to die for leather but not its meat? “what i said about the vegan lifestyle still apllies. your arguement has not challenged mine. ” Actually, if you read my first question i said that if your a vegetarian because of the fact you dont like the thought of animal cruelty then you shouldnt be wearing leather shoes or using animal products or your being hypocrytical. Vegetarians who eat fish is an oxymoron and since you dont agree with them either just leave it at that. If jesus thought eating meat was ok then its ok to me. btw if you dont think eating plants are murder are you ok with abortion ?
your first point is stupid. There are more babies being born every single day which most of them will not be vegetarians. So the demand for meat (unless some wierd disease or w/e happen) will never lower until 50% of people are vegetarian. That will not happen for a while if ever. i dont get your 2nd point if i ate everything i did normally but just took out meat it would cost less wouldnt it? i would think so. 3rd point um yeah you probably do kill insects on a daily basis, in the car driving, walking w/e. Fourth point is irrelevant i see your raged or something when spelling comes up. you probably do use animal products maybe not directly, but you probably do. say i rode a horse to deliver mail, fertilizer ,something like that. 6th point prove to me that im going to be less healthier if i eat fish once a year as to none
7th point, good for you. 8th you have nothing agaisnt me all your points are weak. and your last sentence, ran out of space next box
“Oh, and I am strongly against abortion and the death penalty, so don’t even try to get me with that. Keep arguing with me, I dare you. ”
Do you think eating plants is murder? If your answer is no then you should be ok with abortion. Like plants embryos cannot feel or think its like killing bacteria, which im sure your not against since your body does it every day. Good job on your post you proved nothing against me. (except spelling? LOL) Your whole post just tells me that your a vegan. k thnx bye Ill leave you with this.
“Steven Davis, professor of animal science at Oregon State University, argues that the number of wild animals killed in crop production is greater than those killed in ruminant-pasture production. Whenever a tractor goes through a field to plow, disc, cultivate, apply fertilizer and/or pesticide, and harvest, animals are killed. Davis gives a small sampling of field animals in the U. S. that are threatened by intensive crop production, such as: opossum, rock dove, house sparrow, European starling, black rat, Norway rat, house mouse, Chukar, grey partridge, ring-necked pheasant, wild turkey, cottontail rabbit, gray-tailed vole, and numerous species of amphibians. In one small example, an alfalfa harvest caused a 50% decline in the gray-tailed vole population. According to Davis, if all of the cropland in the U. S. were used to produce crops for a vegan diet, it is estimated that around 1.8 billion animals would be killed annually.
Hope you can sleep well.

I see what your saying in your 1st paragraph but I dont see why I would risk haing all types of defeciencies when i can eat meat, that also tastes good. I also see what your saying in your other paragraphs but say i was to become vegetarian I wouldnt give up wearing leather shoes (I love nike dunks) or other things. Your going to have to kill the cow for leather so why not use the meat too? This is why im saying vegetetarians who are vegetetarians because of animal cruelty are hypocrytical. and like i said if jesus thought it was ok to eat meat its ok with me.
TO NATALIA
The part that says to natalia is the part for you. The ones below are for other people. I just wanted to ask you about the abortion thing
yahoo answers needs a quoting system or something
To natalia
ok, although about abortion lets put it this way.
An embryo is a seed. A seed for a baby to grow. An embryo itself cannot do anything, but if its in a womans womb it can grow. A seed has the potential to turn into a plant but it needs water and sunlight. An embryo at its early stages is basically a seed. Or a seed with water but no sun light. yes i agree about the jesus thing, i guess i was stupid to bring up religion in this. Well i hope i didnt offend you in any way, but ill never become vegetarian unless meat turns nasty. I just dont think that its worth the effort of being vegetarian (esp. vegans)and finding vegetetarian dishes at restaurants and i def. couldnt find any at school except salad, which i eat alot of (with meat).

I agree with most of what you say. Although girls fashion in shoes and boys fashion and shoes are completely different and I would not try to get other shoe material. and jesues thing is just ignorant. I suggest you read this www.allaboutthejourney.org/origin-of-the-universe.htm it is very long but in the end you will know something more.
