Eating meat isn't actually murdering the animal. God, I hate when people say that. Since when was eating an already dead animal murder? Last time I checked, murder was the act of taking another's life away. I respect vegans. I really do. My ex was a strong vegan. I just can't stand groups like PETA. They have no right comparing the Holocaust to something as ridiculous as eating meat. Oh, wait, I'm sorry. I'm wrong. Eating meat is exactly like killing millions of Jews, Gypsies, Jehovah's Witnesses, Homosexuals, handicapped, and heroic people who tried to help other victims. Eating meat is nothing but performing inhuman experiments on human beings. Eating meat will never be anything more than the gassing and burning of humans. The following are quotes from PETA members and other such organizations:
The smallest form of life, even an ant or a clam, is equal to a human
being.
-Ingrid Newkirk, PETA
Please tell me that you don't adhere to this mentality. If you do, then you don't deserve to have children.
Never buy wool again. Choose only cotton, synthetics and other non-animal
fibers. The sheep are embarrassed when they are shorn, sometimes they are
nicked during the process, and they get cold afterward.
(_PETA_News_, August 13, 1989)
Humanity is the cancer of nature.
-Dave Foreman, Earth First!
Man is always and everywhere a blight on the landscape.
-John Muir, Founder of the Sierra Club
Having the last two quotes in mind, I wouldn't be surprised if the next Hitler was a PETA member.
I remember also reading a quote about how if it meant the death of a single animal to cure AIDS, he would not support it. Snow and Leeza, I respect you both. This wasn't meant to be a post flaming veganism, but rather radical groups like PETA.
PS - Vegans are among the minority. Yeah, they are growing, but the majority of the human population is omnivorous.
