Veganism

[Metal Biker]

Cool. So why do gorillas have massive canines then?

In the animal world canine teeth serve several functions such as killing prey, tearing meat to defence or aggressive displays to ward off mating rivals. Humans are omnivores, we've survived by being able to adapt to both diets.

Not sure if you're being serious, but have you ever heard of any human ever being protein deficient? Serious question.

Someone's a pissyboots.

Not sure if you've ever worked out before. Yes, protein deficiency is a thing (fatigue, tiredness, muscles take longer to recover, hair loss), but there are ways for vegetarians and vegans to find sources of protein but they are small compared to the benefits of eating meat.

nice for you to make that decision for them - sorry, you're not allowed to exist because you have no use now an edict say's you can't be eaten....

By that rationale, it's OK to farm trillions of black or Chinese or Norwegian people for us to eat. After all, they wouldn't exist in the first place otherwise. And who are we to tell them they're not allowed to exist?

Mental.

You're kidding right?

It's called cannibalism and is frowned upon in most cultures.

Only if you are cannibal. Which I assume you are not. But rather you are working down the list of vegetarian excuses for their bizarre lifestyle...

Next?

BTW - I love it when people try to sell the vegan/vegetarian thing - its like shooting fish in a barrel responding to them

You're kidding right?

So you think we're doing all those animals a favour? Is that what you're saying? You're kidding right?

I have a tin of Fois Gras in the cupboard by the way - you should try it as a topper on a medium-rare rib-eye steak - fucking awesome, if a little pricey!

The domesticated cow is one of the most successful (in terms of numbers) mammals on the planet thanks to Humans. It would not have reached the numbers it has on its own. You brought up a bingo card before, are you sure you're not playing the "meat is murder" version?

Crikey, did you really just cite Joseph Mercola's website to try and win an argument? Like, actually really? And did you seriously just describe animals having feelings as 'garbage'? That is actually staggering.

There is one in there written a bloke called Keith.
A wonder if Keif's teef are canines.
Any how Keith has spoken, debate over.
