I know there is sort of a similar topic about pain, but this is different. Is it right or wrong? Here is a video I came across.
Warning, people may find this upsetting or disturbing!!!

No, I mean you'd have to do the deed yourself, and in front of the family. Turn it into a day trip for the kids. lol. Little Joe does the skinning while you gut the thing just after air gunning it. Or maybe we'll start off slow and let you strangle a hen.

I think in the developed world they usually electrocute them and slit their throats, waiting for them to bleed to death or the other way is to bolt them in the skull. Apparently they're totally unconscious and don't feel a thing but sure they're hardly happy hanging upside down waiting for it and I refuse to believe that being zapped or having an object penetrate your skull doesn't sting a little.

You don't need meat to live,simple as. I've been a vegetarian for 6 years and I'm perfectly healthy. It is murder,they are being killed,and there is no such fecking thing as 'humanely killed',which one of you would like to be 'humanely killed' and then eaten.
It's up to people though,I don't mind people who eat meat,as long as they don't try and convince me that I should.

Amen to that, sister!
People who eat meat are just ignorant. But I would not bother them and respect them if they at least owned up to there ignorance. We all have our ignorant points, some more than others.
Your killing an animal. It may be less smart than you, but it's still a fully functioning living thing. The idea that it is 'natural' to eat meat is insane also. Natural is not an argument unto itself.
It's just the willful abandonment of reason in exchange for making petty excuses in justification.

Eating meat is natural, we're built to eat them if we choose, our incisors are their to bite through meat and tough food. Humans are omnivores we can eat both greens and meat nowadays we can live healthly without one as long as vitamins and supplements are used. I personally eat meat though but I got nothing against people who don't. Just don't judge me for it.

None of this because I don't agree with them but I agree on the animals one. Give me proof of how are animals useful. Nothing. They're here to be eaten and that's it.
It is just natural to eat other animals, I always class murder as killing the same species as you. Like would a Lion kill another Lion? If it does its a little weird (it does happen, maybe not that often)
I own up to the fact that when I eat a steak I don't think of an animal, I see it as a steak.

It's killing something that can think and feel emotion. And eating it. I have no problem with meat eaters as long as they are honest.

We have civilization, art, culture, we spread history, we carry ourselves a certain way. We try to explain the existence we are conscious of through philosophy and religion. We have an ego and we know it, basically.
Whatever your opinions on meat, that's cool, your not jamming it down my throat so i'm not blowing a hissy fit, but we ARE civilized. We have society. Your not honestly putting up a case against that, are you?

Yeah. We have a habitat. So? We still have civilization. How many lions have you seen open direct debit accounts?
If you were right, and we were just instinctual animals like any other, we would not feel guilt about killing each other. And we would not take the cheap way out and wash our hands of responsibility by letting slaughterhouses do the work.
So go on. Down on your hands and knees and catch some chickens. Eat it while it still breaths. After all, we are wild.

If we're still wild, as some of you have suggested, then you, along with every member of your family should take part in the ancient ritual of killing these animals yourselves. Seems like a logical step to take if we're still the tribesman you claim us to be. Could you do it?

Is it normal for animals to eat humans? Good question. It is neither normal nor not normal, because in the animals mind, they cant THINK about it. They cant THINK of the consequences of killing another living thing. We can. And these days we dont need to do it, but we do out of ignorance because it is tasty. Thats basically it.

If I had the choice between eating a horse steak (typically French I know lol) or getting swallowed by an Anaconda, trust me I'd take the horse.
I couldn't live without meat.
Also I'd like to point out that if eating meat is murder then we would all be locked in prison right now. It's not because societes got used to do it so it became normal to do it.
We, humans, were the smartest before being the strongest. We may not have been the strongest ones in the past (no guns...) but by outsmarting the animals, we managed to be the strongest ones.

We outsmarted the animals, your right. And we are very smart and very advanced now, so why do we still eat meat? Because it tastes good! Thats all I want people to admit! It's not nature anymore. Cheetah's dont battery farm Gazelles!

I can imagine other animals prepare food but that was a basic example.

Farmers don't hunt. They farm. Hence the term 'farmer' Sorry to break it to you.
When a lion catches meat and, as you put it, 'prepares' it, it catches the animal with it's teeth. Alive. And they tend not to season it, add chemical preservatives, and package it to sell in Safari Tesco.
Because they are wild. And we are not wild.

Because we have developed techniques to prepare food. We can still be eaten. Therefore we are wild. We can become battery chickens (humans) if was possible that another species evolved to become better then us. New word for you. Evolution.

Yes, but that has not happened. New word for you : reality. Your using other animals evolving to become smarter than us as a genuine argument? Have you any idea how long evolution of that magnitude would take? Billions of years. And would it suddenly make it right for us to be killed and eaten then if there was something smarter than us? You essentially just created another argument against yourself.
We can still be eaten, therefore we are wild? That's not an argument. Thats a fallacious statement. Your not in any severe risk of being eaten unless you venture outside of the CIVILIZED SOCIETY we have built to PROTECT OURSELVES from such things. Because we are smart. Because we are not wild and instinctual.

You are thinking too much about the UK and what the UK enviroment holds. Of corse no creatures can kill us here but others sure can in other countrys.

There are plenty of tribes still in the world, but civilization exists in Africa, too, Harry. Good god man. Null argument. I am thinking of this from a global perspective. Globally speaking, we are not wild. We are an advanced society. We are not instinctual with approach to everything. We have ego. We can understand our world. We record history and create art.
We. Are. Not. Wild.
If you were wild, YOU would be catching YOUR own food out in THE WILD with your teeth. A farmer would not be growing and breeding it for you.
Do Bears breed Salmon? No. They cant. Because they are wild. And we ... are not wild.

This thread was created to pose the question of eating meat. You are posing a different question. You are saying we are wild. This is wrong. We are not. There is no opinion in fact. I have already proved to you how we are not wild. In fact, I cant believe I have to. I am thinking you just have nothing else to argue hence why you made that post, to try and salvage something.

Either way i can't do it, I drop weight extremely quickly as it is without meat id look terrible wouldnt be able to gain too much size or muscle.

Quorn is decent, but its not meat. Im picky with food and I can just tell, there is that after taste which isnt satisfying. Plus they don't make quorn steaks haha, and if they did it wouldn't have that lovely stringy falling apart texture.
Some people need to get a grip and realise there are other opinions in the world other than yours, some people like meat and some people aren't upset at the fact it came from a living thing. Get over it. It is not murder because if it was murder everyone would be locked up... its a fact of life that we eat meat, it is natural to us... always has been and always will be. Our body requires meat to survive, obviously now with quorn and other stuff it is made possible to not need meat... but without technology you would be unhealthy not eating it.
My reason for eating meat? I really enjoy it, there is nothing more I enjoy than meat, steak, chicken, fish, lamb, pork... I like it all. If I enjoy it then I am going to do it... it is a free country.
Quorn is decent, but its not meat. Im picky with food and I can just tell, there is that after taste which isnt satisfying. Plus they don't make quorn steaks haha, and if they did it wouldn't have that lovely stringy falling apart texture.
Some people need to get a grip and realise there are other opinions in the world other than yours, some people like meat and some people aren't upset at the fact it came from a living thing. Get over it. It is not murder because if it was murder everyone would be locked up... its a fact of life that we eat meat, it is natural to us... always has been and always will be.

Fom,Quorn do like EVERYTHING,steaks and all. But I've been told the only things that taste like meat are the mince and the chicken burgers. I don't remember what meat tastes like. As I said before I don't mind people eating meat as long as they don't think I should. It's a nice idea that everyone could be veggie but it's never gonna happen so no point trying to convince everyone to do it :P

Haha, I have had quorn mince before... it was alright. You could tell that it was getting there, but me being a weirdo could just tell, there was that slight thing missing. But if you have forgot what meat tastes like then I can understand how much you think it tastes like meat because its close. I am exactly the same as you, I have nothing against vegetarians as long as people don't throw it on me :)
I even want to try out being a vegetarian just as an experience, I could never do it because I love meat. But I still want to try it for a bit!

Why now should we not eat meat?
Either way i can't do it, I drop weight extremely quickly as it is without meat id look terrible wouldnt be able to gain too much size or muscle.
Tuna
Chicken
Mince
Are very important.
Ohhh and even my cat can tell the difference between Quorn and meat.
Quorn has less protein :nono:
Some of us care more about other animals dying than how big our muscles are, I am guessing? :rolleyes:

No. What you are describing is called freedom. Being wild is functioning entirely self sufficient on a system of instincts.

I think you'll find it's the lionesses who do the hunting while the males lay around on the Serengeti scratching themselves. Sounds about right...
Humans are onmivores. We're built to eat meat, but we don't have to support cruelty. I eat meat but make sure it's locally produced, sympathetically reared and humanely slaughtered. I never eat cheap, 'factory farmed' products and I don't eat eggs produced in batteries. It costs slightly more, I think eating meat from an animal that has been treated well tastes different. We have freedom of choice and we can choose not to support an industry that promotes suffering.

I am now going to log off and save the world, because ProbeEight Crankypants says so. It wasn't an argument. It's my opinion that there are more pressing matters needing to be dealed with before we start thinking of the furry ones' feelings. If people want to be vegetarian, that's fine. It is their choice. It's everyone else's choice to eat deliciously charred flesh. Vegetarians should make peace with that and not scream murder.

But it's an opinion that makes very little sense. What has being vegetarian got to do with not saving humanity? Because in that case, my argument was spot on. After all, posting on TiBB is not helping humanity either. Neither is most of the other things we do during the day. So to say there are more pressing issues than vegetarianism is a bit of a non entity, don't you think? Do you think every vegetarian on the planet spends all day screaming murder at a wall instead of going to work and having showers?

There's a difference in what we're talking about. Being vegetarian is a choice people make, and it's fine. It's the 'meat is murder' rant I have a problem with, where people can't be happy with the choices they make and shove their beliefs down my meat-filled mouth. Just like Christianity.

You are an absolute moron. You eat meat so don't preach to us that think meat is tasty. If you feel you HAVE to eat meat because it's "everywhere" then you're worse than those who choose to eat it.
It isn't murder. We're designed to eat meat and have been doing so since we've been put on this planet.

Meat is Murder. Not just of animals who fight the knife as any human would fight the knife, but of ourselves and of the planet.
Many of the world's leading climate change scientists agree farming of meat animals contributes to one third of the world's greenhouse gasses. Most deforestation occurs to find more land for meat production. There are many websites which will show how much water is used to produce 1 kilo of meat or milk. It's beyond belief we humans allow our own destruction when it is so easily avoided. I stopped eating meat after watching the DVD Earthlings. I was appalled. I never even thought of animals and I called myself an animal lover. I was a total hypocrite.
As someone in the medical field and with several science degrees to my name I've read many studies which link animal and dairy products to cancer and heart disease. It is the major cause. In Australia the Heart Foundation is now recommending no meat on tv commercials. Only the marketing hype of the meat and dairy industry keeps alive the myth that meat and milk are healthy.
Violence to animals is linked in many studies to violence to people. I found it easy to stop eating meat. Every vegan I've met said it was easy to stop. We now have Animal Law in our Universities, the next step in ending their abuse. Acting kindly to animals instead of butchering them and abusing them in every way humans know how will be the start of a kinder world. If we can care for creatures that are so alien to us, we begin the journey to caring about those who are not so different. Many of the foremost advocates for animals were also advocating for the end of abuse to humans.
Only non-compassionate, non-caring humans or the truly ignorant and apathetic could eat meat. The information is so widely available now there is no excuse to remain ignorant and to choose not to care.
A hundred years ago slavery of negroes was acceptable. Less than 50 years ago child abuse was acceptable. Women's rights were non existent. Animal rights is the next great social justice movement. The fact that meat farming and dairy farming are so closely linked to climate change is a godsend for animals. In the current environmental awareness climate, and the awareness of cancer causes and causes of obesity and other diseases such as diabetes, animals might finally get the break they need to break the cycle of animal holocaust. Stop the animal holocaust. Go Veg. Stop the horror in which every meat eater and milk drinker is complicit.

To the people who say people who eat meat should have to kill the animal.
I think you should grow your own veg. But then, why bother when there are people on the other side of the world caught in the poverty trap who will grow it for you. It doesn't matter if they can hardly feed themselves because all the land is turned over to food production for us. Well, as long as you don't think about it.
You can make your own clothes too, but that would put that 7 year old child who works 16 hours a day, 7 days a week for a few dollar a week out of work. Mind, if they wern't working then they may be able to get an education to help escape that pityful life, and we can't have that as we would have to pay more in the shops.
Oh, and while you are at it you can decomission you own old electrical goods using dangerous chemicals and acids to get to the small amount of silver and the like. For you efforts you will get paid just enough to feed your family and your life expectancy halved. Your water supply and land that your family rely on will all so become toxic.
Now, tell me I should not use a farmer and butcher to get my meat and should do it myself.

I think if we allow religion into the serious debates section this should be. Sometimes the way humans act i'd rather save animals over them, at least they're innocent. I do eat meat, but I do also believe I could live without mean, possibly one day, who knows...
As long as it's a humane way of killing them I don't really mind, but then again, we don't know how they really die, but I guess free range it sort of a step forward, shame it's more expensive.

There is those people who do it to look 'indie' or 'trendy' like "Ohhhhh I like the smiths i'm veggie like Morrissey hehe" They annoy me most, I don't mind if people have a passion for it, that's good.

Yeah, never quite understood it to be honest.
And vegans...dont even get me started...
I have a mate who is a vegan, and when she came to mine once, I was eating bacon and eggs...I didnt know she was coming...she glared at my plate, we had a massive arguement and it turned out she was pissed that I would eat meat in her company...I told her to get a life, but then it turned out that the fact that I also had eggs made it worse...bizzare...
I got annoyed that she kicked off about what I eat though, its nowt to do with her, so next time I knew she was coming, I put a huge beef joint in about 2 hours before so it was in the middle of cooking when she got here :D

Oh that's ridiculous. Vegetarians need to get used to people eating meat around them. I never argue with people about it,it's just stupid. It's my principles,not their's. LOL at you putting the beef in :laugh:

I had to :)
Hate being told what to do.
I mean, I respect her decisions...she should be the same with me.

You should've left the beef on the side until she arrived, made sure she seen it all raw and put it in the oven in front of her :joker:
Vegetarianism I can understand but Vegans baffle me.
Chickens NEED to lay eggs, cows NEED to be milked etc
Oh and vegetarians that eat fish are laughable
They are pescetarians [or Lazy Vegetarians]. And to be honest, I can kind of see where they are getting there logic from. Chickens, pigs & cows posess some degree of cognitive qualities and charm whereas fish just muck about aimlessly in there thousands like blown up bits of bacteria.
And remember - not all of these guys give a **** about the ethics. Many pescetarians are only so for the health benefits [red meat containing high amounts of saturated fat whereas fish are a great source of omega 3 etc].

LOL at lazy vegetarians! I don't mind people who eat fish who only veggies for health reasons,cos that's totally different. I hate people who think they're a vegetarian and then eats fish.

Yes meat is murder because animals should have rights,too.

You make it sound so depressingly political. Some of us would just rather not see animals die. Most people would be upset at the sight of battery farms and processing plants. But that's forgotten with the way it just get's straight to the supermarket and into your hands. It's a cheap way of dodging responsibility. I don't want to eat anything I myself would not be capable of killing.

I'd like to be a veggie, but would not want to be one for the sake of it if you get me. I'd want to really believe in it.
