I originally stopped eating meat for moralistic reasons, which I still somewhat believe. I am more anthropocentric than I used to be, but since there is no need to eat meat in industrialized nations, I do not like it. In addition, I dislike factory farming as it is needlessly cruel.ezeroast said:So if you are a Vegetarian or vegan, why is it? Religious reasons? For a healthy diet? Cruelty to animals? Specific dietary needs? Saving the environment from cows farts?
Hello there brother! How have your humanitarian ways been treating you?Naheal said:
Definitely a humanitarian.
I just had an argument with a annoying idiot the other day about vegetarianism, and as such I felt like having a rant. You are right, not all vegetarians are stuck up jerks, and I apologise.Zyphonee said:mr snippy
This is funny but I had one of those too; I don't blame you, a lot of vegetarians think they are superior to all just because they don't eat meat and have the right to call everyone who does a murderer.Super Toast said:I just had an argument with a annoying idiot the other day about vegetarianism, and as such I felt like having a rant.

Just as healthy != Healthierzen5887 said:Well.TomLikesGuitar said:I'm just confused by the people who honestly think being vegetarian is healthier.
If someone decides to do their research and make sure their diet contains all the vitamins and minerals your body needs (all of which can be found in non-meat products), they can be just as healthy as meat eaters. And considering you can avoid all the fat and hormones and steroids you get with shitty meat, I'd say being vegetarian can in some cases be healthier.
Agreed, couldnt of said it better myself.Hardcore_gamer said:No its not. There is nothing healthier about not eating meat, if anything not eating any meat is bad for you.Digi7 said:It's just so much healthier for both the body and the mind.
Meat is only unhealthy if you eat to much of it.
Because, correct me if im wrong, but what they feed cows isnt fit for human consumption and the land cows graise on is unfit for agricultural development.imoutogetyou said:i am a vegetarian because it is cheaper in terms of money and the environment. why feed enough grain to a cow to feed 5 people when you can feed 5 people the grain?
A) cows didnt exist before humans used toolsZyphonee said:Well mister, let me tell you that the human species wasn't initially omnivorous; how do you think the first human, no tools and no weapons, managed to eat a cow? That said, I don't eat meat, yet right now, meat has become an important aspect of human progress and economy. My vegetarianism is more a personal thing so maybe you should try to stop saying that all vegetarians by choice are uninformed douches because you'll just come off as ignorant, or at least you just did to me.
