I am a vegetarian and I don't hate people who eat meat - 'cause I think animals were created to be peacefully killed and eaten.
I don't like when people say animals are so cute and shouldn't be killed; nope that's why they're here; some cultures go too far though by killing cats or dogs that's when it's ... too much.

But I chose to be a vegetarian because I feel really healthy this way and I love it - and I got nothing against sitting with 20 people who're eating steak or chicken or fish lol ....

So yea - you can be whoever you want, eat what you want and so on, it's your body, beliefs and your life. screw others

You hang out w/ a rough crowd! Find some carnivorous friends! ;-)

i get the impression its nothing to do with the fact your a meat eater!!

Because some think their way is the best, and only way.
(They're wrong)

i eat meat and im not going to change just coz ppl dont like it!
i couldnt go without
chicken
steak
n cheeseburgers,lol!

meat is good for you and it makes u smarter too. eat healthy and be happy. :D

Who gives a f*ck what veggies say? You can eat what you want when you want.

Ignorance and intolerance.

BECAUSE THEY FEEL GULITY for the world around them. So let them . let them eat grass and rocks if they want.I always ask them to go on a baby seal hunt w/ me.

Some people have a real soft spot for animals because they can't really stand up for themselves.

I have the habit of dating wackos...er...vegetarians. I guess I can see their point to a certain degree.

But nature is nature. We're tops on the pecking order because of our developed brains.

And lets face it, there are few things better in the world than a ribeye or porterhouse!

There are over ten billion peoples on this earth. Less than 5% are vegetarians.

Why do you concern your self about their beliefs?

Nature put meat here for you to eat as part of your diet.

Everything on this earth supports some other life form! It is called the food chain!

Nothing is here just to look at. Everything is part of the food chain of something else.

So, eat what you enjoy, tell the others to take Care of their own plate!

Too, where is your character? How can you let your happiness be influenced by a group that cares nothing about you?

Do they pay your rent, contribute to your retirement account? Take care of your loneliness? Stop being a sucker, live your life and tell all the others to kiss your ???!

i wouldn't hate you because you eat meat. But because you're annoying. this question is biased and stupid. it makes no sense to ask this. why hang out in the veg section if you do eat meat.

ignore them

This depends on if you a cannibal i suppose. My kids annoy me sometimes but i wouldn't want them to be eaten if you catch my drift and pardon the punt.

after visiting this area the first couple times, i felt this way too. i learned to ignore the more "militant" types who feel that us meateaters are killing the world we live in because we eat meat. this is simply not true, no matter how many "facts" they dig up on the web to back their side. the main thing to realize is that people eat what they want and shouldnt be made to feel guilty about it if it's meat they so happen to enjoy. the same with vegetarians. we meateaters have no right to ridicule the veg's choice of what they eat. like i said, its the "militant" greenpeace freaks that want to tell the rest of the world what we should be eating and these are but a small handfull of the vegetarians in this world so their criticism shouldn't be taken to heart. i am by no means a vegetarian, but omnivorous. and that is all and well. but i wont sit here and let someone criticize someone else without defending them. thats my nature. if you think people hate you, you should go look in a mirror sometime and study deep into your own eyes and soul and ask the same question. you might be suprised at the answer you get. good day.

maybe cause there vegetarian lol;} dont woory i eat it 2

well they would not like baby lions or leopards to starve,it is a fact of life,the hunters and the hunted.

Check out the http://www.westonaprice.org/ foundation and their links. I agree that eating meat may seem harsh, and used to be vegetarian, but the only way that I have regained my health has been through eating a lot of bone stock and good quality rare/raw meat and fat. Also different people have different metabolisms, some can eat more meat, and some need more veg/grains (see "the metabolic typing diet" by William wolcott).

Also animal welfare is extremely important because animals are much more aware/feeling than we seem to realise or would like to think because we use them for food, so always honour the lives you take to sustain you and make sure they have had a decent/comfortable existence. This may cost a little more (organic food) but is worth it, both for them and also for your health!

i'm a vegetarian and i don't hate you.

That's rich. You come in here, talk **** about vegetarians, and you have the nerve to ask why they talk **** about you?

We don't hate you because you eat meat, we hate you because you hate people who don't.

Personally as long as they dont push their opinons on me or make rude comments (meat eaters I mean) I don't care.

There are those who eat meat & those who don't,each one has their own reasons for keeping to their type of diet,you owe no explanations to anyone nor should anyone expect you to give them a reason for your choice.I wonder if you are correct in your assesment of your assoaiates,i am avoiding the word friend on purpose,anyone who hates can hardly be called a friend. Eat what you think is right for you & enjoy it.

i am a veggie and i don't hate people who eat meat but i do voice my opinions about it and why it's wrong. our teeth are more like herbivores than carnivores. Animals are bred and killed peacefully on a open plain farm. They get tortured and then painfully killed.

I'm vegetarian, and I don't hate you.

I don't think vegetarians 'Hate' people who eat meat.You have got to get a sense of proportion with this.Sure extremists hate anyone who doesn't agree with them and they will try to blow you up, but most rational , intelligent people will agree to differ.As long as you are confident in your decision to eat meat don't worry.Just make sure you listen to all the arguments and are well informed if you do associate with a lot of vegetarians so you can justify yourself.

Having said all that I think the real meaning behind your question was 'Why do vegetarians think it is wrong to eat meat?' but I shan't answer that now because that is a different question.

if we were meant to eat meat, why do we need to cook it? and plants have no central nervous systems, there for they cannot feel pain. they are not animals like we are, or dogs are or chickens are. they are a completely different group. and if you stayed out of the veggie section you would not feel hated.

I'm a vegan and..i don't hate people that eat meat..its there choice if you like meat go eat it lol but..if you don't agree with it and your a huge animal lover like me then...don't eat meat!!

animals can't grow back sweetie. Because they support people who kill their animals inhumanly. I have no problem with people who eat animals that were raised organically.

Plants can spawn more easily, and don't have personalities. You can't *love* a plant

Maybe people don't like you for other reasons or maybe you suffer from paranoic schizophrenia. Nobody knows you here, nobody apparently attacked you, and if you have a problem, go and seek help.

I think hate is a harsh word...erm but if you said something to them like "Well plants have feelings too" you're not putting up a good fight for yourself. We don't have special teeth for eating meat, that would belong to felines of the world. Look at the difference between ours and theres. Do research before you try having a come back when vegetarians call you out :)
