Vegetarians .. Vegans and the like …

After I embarrassed myself the other day by completely forgetting about the importance of aerodynamics on maximum velocities through air I will hold back on arguing with anyone for a while. I don't usually make big mistakes like that but hey its been a hectic few months where bankruptcy was waving its sharpened sythe at us.
Hopefully all that is behind us but before I swing wildly off topic (oops too late) try this Chris, its only the tip of the iceberg (pardon the pun), but after reading mountains of evidence from both sides of the scientific community I am in no way convinced about the whole climate change scenario as its being thrust upon the general populace!
The liars sicken me and the publics gullibilty saddens me....what to do...

Just one sensible restrained voice in a world full of scare mongering madmen who are driven only by political desire.

All I can say is if we don't eat the poor cows and sheep of the world then they would surely over populate

They only exist because we breed them for food. If we started eating elephants instead of cows then there would be millions of elephants in elephant farms across the world, simple economics!
Haven't you noticed that the only large animals which exist in 'vast' numbers are domestic ones?

Me neither, it's been reduced to pop science, I do agree with saving energy as much as possible (waste not want not), but there are a lot of campaigners making a lot of money out of this. Hence the scaremongering and exagerating any statistics, like the graphs that go up in a steep line, where the x is 100 years and the y is 0.001degree! Good thing the sheeple don't look at common friggin sense.

Meat eaters enjoying telling vegetarians about all the meat they eat is like car drivers enjoying telling bikers about how "a lad got killed on one of those round our way t'other week". Very odd. Enjoy.

Quite, it is just not called for and lets face it, has no effect except making the person who said it look a plonker!!

Also there are some that seem to think depriving an animal of its life - so you can live on - is something for amusement ... that's just sick.

Sure I eat meat, but I don't crack jokes or make light of the fact that something has been killed - and purely so I could fill my belly ... I also don't think modern mass farming is particularly pleasant ... I am not in ignorance of how my food arrives on my plate ... so tend to not think of these things when I am tucking into a nice bacon butty - but I am not about to make light of the fact either ...

I can almost guaranteed the majority of carnivores - if they had to physically kill and prepare the meat they ate - well wouldn't be active carnivoures very much longer!

I eat Tuna about 6 times a year the reason being that they get to swim in the ocean for several years before being caught!
Does that make me a semi-veggie?
I also have goats milk in coffee (won't go near cows milk), and eat chickens eggs occasionally (free range)!

A bloke at work went on that Atkinsons diet thingy cos he was fat. 6 months on he's still fat!

I was 18 stone and in 10 months went down to 13 stone just by going vegetarian and cutting out all animal and dairy products. My wife went from 13 stone down to 9 stone too. None of my kids are overweight and my daughter is almost top in her class so its not affecting their learning abilities either!
With so many positives I can't see why people take the pish!

I do miss pork steaks, bacon butties, chicken kiev's, bacon & poached egg sandwiches, braised steak in gravy with fresh home made bread to dip, I'd better stop now I'm feeling hungry!

I do. And I enjoy meals I've hunted, killed and cooked myself much more than supermarket cr4p. (but I suppose I'm the minority here)

I just had a vision of you wrestling a cow to the ground with a 10" Bowie and a box of fire lighters!
