if you're vegetarian for health reasons, then maybe i'd understand, but if you're vegetarian for religious reasons, it kinda fcks up there.
most restaurants in buddhist temples (the monks have to be vegetarian) serve vegetarian meals, but they try to make the food look like beef, pork etc. which imo the true meaning is gone, since you're not really vegetarian at heart; you're thinking that you're eating beef/pork/chicken.
my mum went vegetarian recently, fcking load of bullshit.

I know that a 1st AD I worked with didn't normally eat red meat because of the long term effects it has on the body.
Did go Vegan for a week just because my best friend did once and he said it was the hardest thing he'd ever done in his life, and I agree that it was damn tough.
If you don't like the taste of meat, or or health issues that's cool, but don't try to make me feel bad enjoying a cooked to perfection piece of prime and you are 'enjoying' bean sports because you think you are saving animals.
The fewer you eat just means more to the rest of us.
In a somewhat related note. There are now warnings that we are running out of phosphorus, which in turn would lead to less effective fertilizers, and less food production overall. When you chalk that in with the fact that people still die of starvation the future looks a little bit more scary, and a lot less filling.

talk about the Vegetarians who dont eat meat and trying save the cows, chicken,deer. the Vegetarians don't think plants are living thing. but there. they breath,drink and grow and have babes. and they can feel and die what different there liveing type thing

Well actually some animals and all plants do not feel pain.
If something does not have a nervous system then it will not feel pain.
So plants do not feel any pain.

but your still kill it. just stop feed a plant water it will die off
i just saying there no different. allway smart animals live longer.
there some plant that eat meat

that's even worse than killing it; assuming that plants do have a nervous system like we do, would you rather have your head chopped off or be starved to death?
your logic is flawed.

Wait I don't get it.
What's the point of this whole topic, what's jazneo's opinion?
The things he says doesn't make any sense to me =/

Meh read this and finally understood it.
The purpose of being vegetarian is to not eat animals, which are different from eating plants, although they are both living things in general.
Since jazneo's probably gonna say 'but plants can still thinks and stuffs', yea but animal brains are more developed than plants, they are capable of expressing emotion, and resemble humans MORE than plants.
So really, what would you rather eat?

Omnivores = Meat and vegetables
Carnivores = Meat
Vegetarians = Vegetables
Meaning we're allowed to eat whatever we want, and aren't forced to eat any specific food.
On that same argument (not directed at woshii) I can say all meat eaters are heartless monsters that will kill at a moments notice just to eat something. They don't care about who or what they kill as long as they get their meat. They are selfish people who nobody likes being around.
But that would be false and insanely biased, wouldn't it?

Hmm sooner or later we will all have to eat dirt. :3
I suggest both sides stop fighting and just eat what they want. But eh I sympathize with vegetarians. Vegetables and fruits are rather easy to cultivate and are higher in nutrition then meat is. You can pretty much survive just fine on a whole vege and fruit diet. But heh no matter what you eat you can still be nutrient deficient if you don't eat wisely.
So just eat wisely and keep your noses out of other people's eating habits. I'm all for people being opinionated and sharing their opinions with the world, but hmm when it gets to pushing those opinions onto others that's where I draw the line. Sharing is ok but pushing beliefs onto someone who doesn't feel the same way just makes you a bigot.

I've made countless vegetarian arguments that have yet to be countered on this forum.
As stated, starting off by admitting ignorance isn't good. Especially when the ARTICLE you're posting is written by a man who doesn't appear to have a first clue about vegetarianism.
There's no lack of logic to vegetarianism. There's more of a lack in logic to anti-veg arguments than for.

That's because people are tired of arguing with a close-minded bullhead who's trying to force his opinion on others.
"My opinion is the only one that counts, you're wrong anyway"
You don't need logic to justify what you're doing. If it feels right for you, just do it.
