If you are what you eat, than that explains why the vegan couple in that picture look like vegetables.
I mean, honestly. Their zombie-like facial expressions just screams, "I'd eat your delicious brains if it weren't for the fact that it'd give us colon cancer."

Because of course vegetables can never ever cause cancer ever. We certain don't genetically alter them! And imported stuff certainly have the same chemical standards as we do. :D |

Didn't we already have this conversation? ------

I do not go medieval on peoples asses. I go Renaissance. There's an important difference. Medieval is just beating someone with a mace, but Renaissance is artful, sophisticated. Smooth, yet firm, powerful, yet distinct. Everyone knows when someone's gone Medieval on their ass, but they don't know Renaissance until its too late. -Wiseass Dave |

I like fish

So as you can see. I have an ardent passionate love for all of the aboved animals. Take that PETA!

Two quotes I can think of come to mind. Both from animated characters....what does that say about me? ....don't answer that.
"You know I read somewhere that star light gives you cancer....then again what doesn't these days?" -Stewie.
"I respect the fact you don't eat meat, please respect the fact that I don't eat fake meat." -Raven
Yeah.....that's basically how I feel on the subject. I wouldn't mind being a vegetarian (not a vegan though), however, meat just tastes so damned good.
Plus, in terms of evolution, being omniverous is your best bet for survival.

Wow. It's scary how much of LMB's post was exactly what I was thinking, and what I was about to post.
Also, "Meat causes cancer" is the gayest thing I've heard in awhile. Ever since the advent of sharp teeth, animals have been eating each other, and ever since the advent of man, we have been eating animals. Over millions and thousands of years of carnivorousness, I doubt it's killed enough people (well, except for the ones who got eaten) to warrant any kind of epedemic of vegetarianism. If everyone were to stop doing everything that could potentially kill them, noone would ever do anything.
Why the Hell do so many vegeterians feel the need to thrust their decision to spurn meat in our faces, anyway?
You know, "___ causes cancer!" seems to be a pretty trendy argument these days for people trying to get other people to stop doing something. Makes it hard to take a lot of it seriously. |

You know air does cause Cancer.
No, it honestly does. There is a very small chance that one of the small charged electrons will get to the nucleaus of a skin cell making it cancerous, and if the skin cells around it die (which they will eventually), then the cancer will grow in them - or something like that. I'm trying to remember something explained to me ages ago and brought up just yesterday.
Oh - the chances of thi happening is so bloody small that, well, its stupid to think about it - but it has happened at least twice =O
The strange point is everything out there probably does stand a chance of causing you cancer. Hell if you're not safe in the air then where are you safe?
LMB gets a thumbs up from me for picking two top notch T.V. quotes *thumbs up* One I thought about myself, the other I had forgotten but reconised as soon as I read it.

Also lots of people seem to be saying what BW's thinking these days.... maybe theres a door into his head no ones told me about? Or BW has started to hang around us al too much.

Holy shit. That's like somethning I might expect to see as a result of SomethingAwful or Onion or Seanbaby shenanigans... but it's real.
There needs to be an organization that cares about animal rights and ISN'T composed entirely of morons.
#3 is the best/worst.

Oh, Maddox, we love you!
Also, anyone seen Pen & Teller's "Bullshit"? Great, funny, scathing show. They did an episode on PETA, and it was simply fantastic. Take it with a grain of salt?
Sure! But when it came to PETA, it's rather easy to believe what they were going on about.

EDIT:
I now feel like I've accomplished something by finding it.
Anyway... I remember hearing from a few sources that the wheat it takes to feed our livestock could be used to feed many more people than the livestock themselves. Of course, I also remember reading that trying to live on nothing but wheat will lead to blindness and eventually death. I also remember Demolition Man, where people who don't eat meat are easy to beat up... If you are reading this, it means that I am logged in. Edited by: Seethe347 at: 4/22/04 5:51 pm

Yeah on both points. That's a consequence of entropy, there, that you'd get less energy from a cow then the food the cow ate. But, eating pure wheat would definitely result in nutrition deficiencies. It is possible to have a vegetarian, or even a vegan diet with all the proteins, vitamins, minerals, etc. that one needs to survive, but meat is a much more efficient source in this respect, especially for the various proteins one needs.
