Re: The Vegetarian Torture
[ QUOTE ]
Vegetarian because killing animals is bad - this one is where I just don't get it. It's like, look, there's an animal kingdom, there's a circle of life, there's a food chain, there's evolution, etc. Animals are not people, simple as that. I think a certain contingent of vegetarians tend to forget that.

There are a number of things in this paragraph that are pretty stupid, to the point where I almost think you are joking. I am well aware that animals aren't people- I don't see how that would make me want to kill them. As for the food chain, who cares? Humans are obviously well beyond the food chain at this point, in the same way that science/technology/progress/whatever has freed humans from many of the limitations that nature once put on us. Saying that we should eat meat because of the food chain is like saying we shouldn't fly because we weren't born with wings.
