Animal Cruelty

[pizzas and scream]

I do know that meat is digestible, and we can benefit from eating it. I like meat. It's tasty. BUT I do not think that we can just call animals food straight out like that. Animals weren't MADE to be food. We weren't made to be food, were we? And according to you we ARE animals, so if we weren't made for food then animals weren't.

some people practice/practiced ritual canniblism (I think) if you ate your foes you slay in battle you get their strength. and some people eat people out of dire need.

Lovely. I think your right about the cannibaism, judging by this pic: STOP! This may be scary and/or unpleasant for younger viewers, but its not to bad, trust me.

sparklepony: EXACTLY WHAT I WAS TRYING TO SAY!!! Yesh! Finally! =)

Kuroyami: Yeah. Maybe some sick people ate each other. But that doesn't mean they are MEANT to eat each other

sparklepony and Kuroyami: Yes, people aren't MEANT to eat each other!

But saying animals aren't meant to eat other animals is to deny the physiology of carnivorous and omnivorous disgestive tracts.

We break down protein SO MUCH EASIER than we do plant-foods (starches, sugars, and the ever impossible, fiber). Our physiology as humans is geared towards omnivory. Just like any other primate, who love meat when they can get it. (Chimpanzees actually hunt)

Skidds: Yes, I know. But overhunting and these slaughterhouses and livestock farms were not meant to be here today, I believe. And I've seen chimpanzees catch birds before.

Isn't it horrid to read in a newspaper how an un-wanted litter of puppies or kittens are thrown in a river to drown, they say if you don't want breeding, neture your pet, and it's pretty cheap to!

Xeta's right, we can't stop people eating meat - some of my real-life friends are omnivoruose - but the amount of slaughter is riduculose, not to mention the ways of killing he animals them-selves. Skidds - and Cardinal for that matter - have a look at all the previouse dicussion, the websites, the pictures and just think about it - espically you Cardinal, animals DON'T equal food, you wouldn't just go eat your pet dog, would you????!!!!!

I doubt she would go eat her pet dog, LOL.
Anyway, bluestar, you're right. We cannot stop humans from eating meat. BUT - we CAN stop humans from animal abusing (what this thread is about in the first place!) so I'd like it if we could all get along in here so we can spread our idea's and thoughts on the original matter at stake.

Anyway I read on the internet that China has brought out a law to stop eating pets, like cats and dogs? This is good news. Plus the fine is pretty high for it so I doubt anyone in China will order a roast dog in their restaurants any more, unless they were pretty stupid >_>
