Firstly, thanks for returning the abuse and taking it up a notch.
So, you have two sharp teeth and that makes you a hungry, scary predator. On the other hand, you are no longer part of the food chain, you live in a consumer society and have no need (aside from
want ) for meat. You can live without it. I am living proof of that. You can also reduce cholesterol and risk of cancers such as colon cancer by reducing the amount of red meat you eat. Drop red meat from your diet completely and you will live an estimated ten years longer. The meat you eat is not wild, it is farmed and contains additives and hormones not usually found in those animals. Meat, red meat especially, is harmful to your body over a sustained period.
Don`t then think that I advocate the slaughter of wild animals for food, either. If you want to be a chickenshit lying in wait with a high powered rifle, dressed in camo for that docile creature to meander by, get a life. You are not a man. A real man would strip to his birthday suit and wrestle the animal with just his bare hands. Hunting has no place in a civilised society.
So, you see, meat for consumption in the modern age really is selfish. Something has to die so that you can go on living. But what do you provide the planet with? Pollution and waste. Zero balance.
As for all those silly comments about plants, well, you need not kill the tree to eat an apple. That really was just as juvenile an argument as was my initial comment.
If any of you have the time, stop wanking and look into this. I believe it has much greater validity than religion. It is rarely forced upon anyone from birth and not a doctrine in the religious sense. It is a free choice to choose what is beneficial to both yourself and the natural world.
