| We once had a discusison like this, but well, people go, people come back... So we can have it again. But this will have a different focus. Are vegetarians right at not eating meat? "Because it harms animals"? Or "It tastes bad"? It harms animals My food can run for its life. If I am trying to kill a fox, the fox can run and escape. But can your precious vegatables run? No! They will cry, wanting to start running, but the imminent death will strike them instantly. They will get their head ripped off and will be eaten. A sad destiny, as they can't even fight for what they want. It tastes bad You must be a jerk for not liking meat's taste. I mean, some people are starving to death, they would give anything for meat, and you have it and despise it? If it tasted bad, I would understand, but this is NOT a matter of opinion: Meat is good, healthy if consumed not daily and it does not taste bad enough for refusing to eat it. |
 |
| You are such a silly goose. Those precious vegetables want nothing more than to be eaten. It is their reason for existence, and you'd deny them that? You are the bastard for putting them on the same level as animals. Plants serve their higher purpose, unlike you. |
| can you just make an interesting, non-judgemental thread for once? |
 |
| Those are reasons they give for not eating meat. I'm pretty sure they really just enjoy feeling as though they're on a moral high ground. |

| If I go to a store and buy some ground beef, than by a vegetarians standpoint it will try and run away. It has no legs, but will grab a knife and turn me into a hamburger. Anime teaches us a lot. The things you learn ~ |

| Guiz, veggies have feelings too~ |
 |
| just mind your own business and leave the vegetarian to their own devices xD maybe they don't want to see animals get hurt ;) |
 |
| Personally I don't agree with vegetarianism, but I respect their decision nonetheless; it takes a certain degree of dedication to become one, and I can usually understand where they're coming from when they explain their reasons. Just let them do their thing and be happy about it. |
| no because i dont care if other people are vegetarians |
| RRRRRRRRRR |
| I dont care if they dont like meat because it doesnt taste good or because they dont like eating animals, its not my life or choice And fyi there are animals raised in gross factories their entire lives that end up on your plate, they cant "run for their lives" if theyre in danger And sure poor people will eat whatever food they can get ....... that doesnt mean they like everything they eat? If you have a choice not to eat meat because you dont like it and can afford that, then why not... |

| It is funny how people like to talk on a subject that they have absolutely no knowledge on. I am a vegetarian myself, but I disagree with the reasons of what I like to think is the minority of vegetarians. I notice a lot of people who become vegetarian treat it as some sort of healthy fad diet, and whilst a vegetarian diet is healthier than eating meat, they’re completely ignorant on the matter & think being a vegetarian involves eating salad for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Then you have the hippy, tree-hugging types (vegans actually), some of which seem to have made the choice because they believe it makes them superior or whatever. I'm a vegetarian because it's far healthier than eating meat; I don’t do it to feel superior, however when people display such ignorance and actually believe that eating meat is healthier for you, it makes me superior by default. |

| No I don't. Meat is required in the body. Though vegetables have some protein, still it wont beat how much protein does a meat give, with that alone, a vegetarian is nothing but a foolish fallacy. THOUGH!!! You may eat foods MOSTLY vegetables, but never ever forget to eat even a matchbox size of meat everyday, at the very least. |

I'm a medical professional, so it's impossible for me not to have knowledge about diet. Just so you know. >I'm a medical professional I am not surprised. When I think "Medical professional" the very first thing I think of is malpractice, or some jackass who got by in college who should have never gotten into the field. It's possible for a "medical professional" to know a shockingly small amount about the field they're supposedly trained in, more so than many people without formal education in it. "Medical professionals" seem to have an extremely hard time accepting the fact that someone without formal education in medicine might be right on a matter regarding medicine and they might be wrong. They seem to have an extremely hard time comprehending that people not having a formal education in medicine does not mean they know nothing about it, or that even if they don't actually know more, they can't be correct on a certain matter and you could be wrong. Get used to this, and accept it, or else just keep being an arrogant ass your whole life and making patients hate you once you show them enough disrespect. I seriously don't know of any other profession where that doctrine is so strong. If you talk to someone with a degree in computer science, almost all of them will admit that people without any formal training in technology could know more than them about technology, or work as equals right next to them. This is because it does happen all the time, "professional" computer scientists and people without formal education working on the same projects together correcting eachother's code is not uncommon. However if you talk to a "medical professional", for some odd reason they have the asinine belief that no one but people with a degree can know anything about the medical field, or that they're something special who knows something no one without the same degree or better could know, which is complete bullshit. If what you are saying was true I'd be dead, the fact I am alive disproves your argument. Why would you even make a claim that could so easily be proved wrong? What are you anyway, a registered nurse? |

lupadim said: Are vegetarians right at not eating meat? "Because it harms animals"? Or "It tastes bad"? It's not for me to say, personally I tend to avoid fish because I hate picking out the bones. When it comes to diet I'm lazy, if it tastes good and isn't too much of a pain in the ass to cook I'll get it. I'm not going to become a vegetarian but if they ever made lab grown meat that tastes in any way as good and has a convincing meaty texture I'd have no hang ups about making a switch. |

That is impossible, you would still be on college, so yes, we found the first lie. And if you doubt: Let's say you finish school at 16 years old. Medical college requires 8 years of study (at least on Brazil), so you'd be medic at 24 years (minimum). I may have spelled "college" wrong, but whatever. You are NOT a medic, and if you really are one, I don't see how a medic can tell someone "Eat a matchbox size of meat everyday", that would definitely kill someone. Meat should be eaten moderately (except fish, chicken and those others) |

Sophilia said: I'm a vegetable :v But no, srsly. Have you err thought some people CAN'T eat meat? Those people are not vegetarians, they simply can't eat meat. In my opinion, vegetarian is an ideology (even through I know it is not, it should be considered an ideology) |

Does it really take 8 years of study to become a medic in Brazil? |

| I think being against the unethical treatment of animals is as good a reason as any to be a vegetarian. Of course, if that's your only quarrel with meat, you could always just eat free range meat. Another "good" reason ("good," because no one actually needs justification) would be to help combat climate change. |

| I don't agree with their opinions but I don't really care what people eat. "YOU'RE MISSING OUT" is what I usually say, with a happy face of course. I don't claim this to be a reasonable argument in any way, but I've always thought "Do you think the animals give a crap about what they eat?" |
