Answers:
There is nothing to justify. Everything lives off something else. People are designed to be omnivorous; if we weren’t designed to eat meat we couldn’t eat it. (yes I can prove it, its long and boring but I can if you wish).
But to deny that fact the people are omnivorous is stupid, we are what we are. Does that mean you can’t choose not to eat meat, no, of course not, but does that make people who eat meat evil, no. It’s a lifestyle choice, you chose not to eat meat, I choose too.
Here something to think about, at one point in our evolution, there were two types of man like apes, one ate plants the other was an omnivore, the plant eater died out, while the omnivore evolved into Homo sapiens. Our nature is to eat just about everything, plants and animals.
Now do most people in the US eat too much meat, yes, most people in the US eat too much of everything.
Yes, I’ve seen the PETA video, many times, I’ve also seen videos of lions bring a zebra and start eating it while it was still alive. Neither one bothers me, do I think animals we kill for food should be killed as quickly as possible, yes. Should they be treated humanely, yes.
But you sound like a nice person, and probably feel that animals have rights. They don’t. Think of it this way. If animals have rights, then the must respect the rights of all other animals, so when a tiger kills another animal it is committing murder and is subject to the law of the land for violating the rights of the other animal. And just how are you going to feed a tiger and not violate the rights of another animal and where are you going to build all the animal jails.
Just something to think about.
ones u try baby !!!!!! u will like it please dont go into phylosphy and try ones u will enjoy it
after all they are made for us ha ha
wish u the same a very non-vegetarian new year......
dont get me wrong, i mean, my best m8 is a veggie and we're both great animal lovers, but if you think about it, humans are not the only ones who eat meat.
wild animals, like tigers, wolves and loads loads more, eat meat to survive.
if everyone became a veggie, we would have to kill all the farm animals like pigs and cows to make room for crops, because vegitables dont give as much engergy as meat.
i ant got anything against vegeterians, ive even thought about being one once or twice
happy new year to you too :)
See there's no one in the world who's non-vegetarian.Everyone eats cake ,everyone drinks milk,this all are non-veg only.Might be some people not be doing these but it's TRUE that whole world is non-veg accept "BRAHMAN'S".
It is supposedly better for asthma and arthritis patients. It decreases the acidity of urine which reduces kidney stones. It is also higher in fibre (better for intestines) and vegs usually have lower cholesterol so heart disease patients often reduce meat consumption.
my brother says it's tastes good, even though he never tried to eat vegg, he eats my vegan food all the time, he's eating out of my plate and loves it, but still will not give up meat,.
when I tell him it's unhealthy to eat meat, he tells me to shut the hell up, when I tell him to look up the animal abouse on this site
http://goveg.com/
he tells me he will never look at it because he doesn't have to
so I think it falls into ingronce, selfish, stupid, and retarted when they do things the wrong way, I can't do anything except live by example, and cook kick azz vegg food, so maybe people will convert just by eating my good food.
Because we can eat whatever we want and you cant tell us not to. and just to make u mad Jesus was an omnivore
your right, animals can feel pain like us they have feelings too.
i was raised on meat, but until i was exposed to the horrors of factory farms.....
a few people that i try to share the vegie view point with have selective hearing (found that out the hard way), they only hear and think what they want to. their hard headed, that's what (just saying some of my friends are, not you people....i don't even know you people, lol).
i guess it takes willingness to give up meat.
- Meat is good -
There are many benefits to a diet containing meat. Many vegetarians claim that meat is unhealthy. This is a blatant fallacy.
It is well established that eating meat improves the quality of nutrition, strengthens the immune system, promotes normal growth and development, is beneficial for day-to-day health, energy and well-being, and helps ensure optimal learning and academic performance.
A long term study found that children who eat more meat are less likely to have deficiencies than those who eat little or no meat. Kids who don’t eat meat ― and especially if they restrict other foods, as many girls are doing ― are more likely to feel tired, apathetic, unable to concentrate, are sick more often, more frequently depressed, and are the most likely to be malnourished and have stunted growth. Meat and other animal-source foods are the building blocks of healthy growth that have made America’s and Europe's youngsters the tallest, strongest and healthiest in the world.
Meat is an important source of quality nutrients, heme iron, protein, zinc and B-complex vitamins. It provides high-quality protein important for kids’ healthy growth and development.
The iron in meat (heme iron) is of high quality and well absorbed by the body, unlike nonheme iron from plants which is not well absorbed. More than 90 percent of iron consumed may be wasted when taken without some heme iron from animal sources. Substances found to inhibit nonheme iron absorption include phytates in cereals, nuts and legumes, and polyphenolics in vegetables. Symptoms of iron deficiency include fatigue, headache, irritability and decreased work performance. For young children, it can lead to impairment in general intelligence, language, motor performance and school readiness. Girls especially need iron after puberty due to blood losses, or if pregnant. Yet studies show 75 percent of teenage girls get less iron than recommended.
Meat, poultry and eggs are also good sources of absorbable zinc, a trace mineral vital for strengthening the immune system and normal growth. Deficiencies link to decreased attention, poorer problem solving and short-term memory, weakened immune system, and the inability to fight infection. While nuts and legumes contain zinc, plant fibre contains phytates that bind it into a nonabsorbable compound.
Found almost exclusively in animal products, Vitamin B12 is necessary for forming new cells. A deficiency can cause anaemia and permanent nerve damage and paralysis. The Vitimin B12 in plants isn't even bioavailable, meaning our body can't use it.
Why not buy food supplements to replace missing vitamins and minerals? Some people believe they can fill those gaps with pills, but they may be fooling themselves. Research consistently shows that real foods in a balanced diet are far superior to trying to make up deficiencies with supplements.
- It's natural -
No sensible vegans can contest that we were deigned to eat meat. Even most vegan scientists agree that human's are designed to eat meat, that is not in question.
That we do not have claws, talons, or incisors to hunt proves nothing. When early hominids ate meat they scavenged it, as vultures do, using their fingers to get the sinews and meat other animals couldn't. It was only after that that they began to hunt the meat themselves, and only much later they began to cook it. It is interesting that even now if someone was brought up eating raw meat he would have no problem with it.
The last few million years of human evolution have revolved completely around tools. We used advanced stone tools long before we began to hunt our own meat, and as such there was no need for evolution to bestow us with large claws or teeth to kill prey.
Simple research into human biology reveals how we are meant to eat meat. For one thing, our body produces hydrochloric acid and meat splitting enzymes that herbivores don't produce and are solely used for the digestion of meat. There are adaptations to our teeth (not incisors, rather the size of the jaw), stomach and intestines which have made a human being very adept at meat digestion. There is nothing wrong with the way our body digests meat, and we are so adept at eating it no scientists are of any doubt we've evolved to eat it.
In contrast, there are many reasons we aren't naturally herbivores. We cannot naturally get all the nutrients we need without animal products naturally. Vitamin B12 cannot be got, even now, without animal products or supplements, and a lack of it can cause anaemia and impending death. 60% of vegans even now have some level of B12 deficiency, as opposed to no meat eaters, which says something about how well adapted we are to a vegan diet.
All other nutriets can be got natually. That owes to that vegtables can now be sold all year round, even out of season, and can be flown into the country from all over the world. In bygone times people could only eat the relatively small range of plants that grew in their ecosytem, and only when they were in season. Thus many more nutrients would have been unavailable and still more unavaillable for most of he year. Until very recently it would have been impossible for a vegan human to live naturally without dying very quickly.
Now, meat makes up for all these lost nutrients very nicely, and it really shows how we aren't naturally vegans, as until very recently it was impossible to live like that.
Other animals eat other animals, so do we, I don't think eating meat is wrong because it is something we have evolved to do.
- Vegetarianism isn't saving any animals -
It's not good for animals: for a start the meat industry is booming at the moment; secondly if enough people went veggie to actually affect the industry at all, and the demand for meat decreased, it would mean animals which were surplus to requirement. You're kidding yourself if you think that would mean they'd live happily ever after, as they couldn't be sold no one would want to keep them, and they'd still be slaughtered.
Think about it, the second farmers couldn't sell their livestock, the second they couldn't make a profit, they wouldn't keep them any more. Keeping animals isn't cheap, and to keep them, without profit, would be hugely expensive to any farmer. How many do you reckon would be prepared to make that kind of loss?
Now, what'd happen then? Maybe a few wild pigs or goats would stay alive, but for the most part it would be impossible to release them into the wild. The vast majority would have to be slaughtered.
I quote "If no one were allowed to farm animals, farms would grow crops instead. The first thing to go would be all the animals. Once the rural landscape were rid of cattle, sheep, and the like, fields would get larger, for the convenience of the combine harvesters, and hedgerows would go. Wild animals like rabbits would now be a more major pest. No farmer would want animals eating the plants, and so the war on such animals would intensify. Grown in the fields would be domesticate species of food crops, and so the number of plant species would decline."
Domestication is one of the best things that can happen to animals. If the golden eagle tasted any good you can bet your life it wouldn't be nearly extinct.
I quote "In the wild, a sheep would have to look for food, compete for it, jockey for position in the herd, look out for predators, guard its offspring, and it one day would die because of some accident, perhaps a fall, some nasty illness, or it would become weak and have its throat ripped out by the local predators. By striking contrast, the life of a farmed sheep is rather different. A farmed sheep has complete protection from predators; all the food of exactly its favourite kind at its feet all day every day, for which it does not have to compete; no competition for mates; no need to guard offspring; free health care; free haircuts; it is very unlikely to die in childbirth, and unlikely to die a nasty death. True, half a ewe’s offspring are taken away and killed. However, in the wild, a ewe would lose most of its offspring anyway, and in nastier circumstances. By the standards of the natural wild, a sheep’s life is about as cushy as a life could possibly be."
This is true, animals in the wild invariably die violent deaths. the closest an animal will get to dying of old age is being picked by a predator because it it old and therefore an easier to target. Farmed animals invariably lead happier, healthier, less stressful lives than those in the wild.
Also, while animals can all feel pain, yes, most aren't conscious animals and they do not have the brain capacity nor capability to comprehend it, or even that they exist.
They can only react to pain using prebuilt instinctive reactions, in the same way a human will retract his hand from a fire without thinking, and in the same way the computer you are at reacts to people pushing its keys based on a prebuilt, albeit very complicated, set of reactions. As they aren't conscious they cannot comprehend pain so no, they do not feel discomfort or suffer.
Unless they have a serious medical issue that prevents them from being vegetarian or vegan, there's really not a good reason. There was a question on here posted by someone who was doing a report on the pros and cons of vegetarianism, and she came on here asking for CONS, because absolutely NONE of the resources online or at the library said anything bad about it. That's tellin ya somethin! ;)
P.S. - Even if they DID bring religion into it, I have Bible verses and explanations galore that prove otherwise! lol, I'm a strong Christian myself but I know the deal!
