Stephen Colber[t] has just interviewed Ingrid Newkirk of PETA and just unwittingly exposed her psychsis for what it is [not sure he intended or wanted to].

She said that, as part of her will, she'd have parts of herself cooked so that people would want some of the flesh and then be told it's a person they're eating.

Okay, now that's batshit crazy. And I can tell that vegetarianism isn't doing her health any good from what I've seen of her.

As atrocious as the brain might consider it to be, cannibalism may very well be healthy.

Maybe in the future, we will eat neither animals nor plants (per se), and rather keep the nutrients to a minimum (keeping waste to a minimum, thus eliminating the need for assholes).

The_Heretic

Actually, the risks of passing diseases from food increase with how closely the prey species is related. And the level of biological complexity a given species has the greater the complications arise from cannibalism.

Seems odd to me, our assholes have taken so long to become obsolete.

Heretic, I think you have vegetarianism all wrong.
I personally think it's a great thing.

Think about it...
The more vegetarians there are = the less meat eaters there are = a lower demand for meat = the price of meat goes down.

I'd eat a T-bone for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

In the perfect world, at least half of the population would be vegan.

The cows and chickens and pigs will evolve. What happens when they get smart enough to realize they are lambs for the slaughter... slaves only meant for us to eat?

The_Heretic

Right, silly me.

Still makes me wonder what the vegetarians think will happen to all those uneaten cattle, pigs, chickens, etc. That means they're be farting more, eating up more native grasses to the deprivation of wild herbavores and pretty soon it'll be India around here.

Well fortunately we got a few million years to think up a plan for that.

I have a carnivorous Cheerio that eats vegetarian Fruitloops.

I told a Vegan who was bitching at me at work when I was eating ribs that SHE is the enemy of cows. See, if we don't eat cows there won't be any need for them. There aren't exactly wild cow preserves nor will there be. As long as we eat them, they will exist.


BTW, I watched a show on cannibalism. It's used as religious purposes and such. As a continuous diet staple, the human body sucks for nutrition and fat. You'd starve eating your enemies.

So continually torturing, kicking, stomping, poking at the eyes and stomach of ill or well cattle at the slaughterhouses after being held their entire lives in the most vile conditions is not being an enemy? I'd rather see them cease to exist than to lie awake nights knowing what they're enduring while they exist.

By the way, I personally don't bitch at people for eating animal flesh, I only bitch if they don't give a shit where that flesh came from. There is such a thing as humanely raising and slaughtering an animal you are going to eat.Unless you're a fucking monster, why would you want it any other way?
