The issue of animals being killed the wrong way or treated bad is WAY more important than human rights, fighting for health care, making sure everyone in the world is fed and world peace all put together. Animal cruelty is the one and only topic of any importance god has ever given man on this planet. (I threw in god for the lulz) We need to make sure that NO ONE feeds the starving people around the world before they've learned what to eat and why. And just because something like killing and eating animals has been part of human culture for thousands of years, that doesn't mean it shouldn't stop. This is just like sex, another thing that we as humans have been doing for thousands of years, it needs to end NOW. I could make a topic and post some pr0n to convince you of how wrong it is to have sex by showing you how it's done, but I won't. [ end sarcasm ] In all seriousness though, anyone fighting for animal rights before all humans are on a "somewhat" equal footing needs to get their priorities straight. It goes like this: - Human Rights - Globalize eSports - World Peace - End World Hunger - Colonize Space and find our nearest Mass Relay Notice how Animal Rights is not even on the list. wow listen to this kid.. | ||

So does that mean being vegan drives you nuts? Not really. For that one vegan Olympian, there are many many more who eat both "balanced" | ||

When a had a blood test taken to make sure I was healthy, my nutritionist was very surprised with my results when I told her I was vegan. I was all up and great with everything I should have been. The only thing I was low on or actually didn't have, was cholesterol. That's was the only thing I lacked. Well its been proven that the human brain evolved the way it did because of the proteins/enzymes found in meat and fish, so I'm pretty sure those people claiming vegans dont have proper nutrition have a point. And if your nutritionist was surprised to learn you were a vegan, what does that say about most other vegans? | ||

It doesn't make much sense to me until i thought about. It's a Biology thing. Basically if you eat something that eats a plant you only get a fraction of the original energy of that plant. At the bottom are plants and other things that produce their own sugars and nutrients, above that are animals that eat plants, above that are animals that eat other animals, and finally are animals that eat dead ones. Some of the energy is lost between each step(used by the previous level).I have no idea how he's connecting that to vegetarianism though. (Vegetarian btw) i hate getting into semantics but he said that plants have the most energy? whatever that means. assuming he's referring to calories, it's still wildly inaccurate. yeah of course energy is lost in between each step, because animals tend to use it when they eat, sleep, fuck, and shit. but since animals eat so many god damn plants (and other animals) they store up fat (energy?!) so that they can live without food for more than a few days. now, because animals eat a bunch of other plants (and animals) they have this accumulation of fat/energy/calories. pound for pound, animals have "more energy than plants' the fuck am i even talking about? you guys are messed up lol | ||

Regardless, I'm sure they picked the worst of the worst for this video and not all places are like this. I love meat and try to buy the higher quality meat where the animals are treated better. | ||

Common myth. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler's_vegetarianism This is all I've ever read about it. It's not like I'm really trying to make a point. A lot of great people are vegetarians or vegans. Perhaps even a disproportionally large amount(although there is a lot of misinformation created by us vegetarians.) It doesn't really mean anything though. These great people became vegetarians after they became great in most cases. It's immature to reference, but its a lot less immature and backed up by more fact than a lot of the shitty arguments in this thread. | ||

I fail to see how these tasks interfere with us giving animals rights. Furthermore given the amount of resources needed to rase cattle compared to vegitarian equivalent products like lentils. If we didn't eat meat there would be more food available to the poor thus helping end world hunger. | ||

Oh no doubt man. I used to train people in jujitsu and judo. One of the better guys we had was a little spanish dude who was a vegetarian. Much respect to the guy, he had heart. But it isn't easy. You really have to keep an eye out to make sure you aren't getting any deficiencys. Listen between all my smart ass comments and the sweet doom fanfic rip off I respect vegetarians and vegans. However I do not respect propaganda that is based off of emotion to get me to not eat meat. | ||
