Why is it ok to eat animals?

[MrMon]

Because if we didn't eat them, the cows would no longer be afraid of us and they would run rampant through the streets. Have you ever seen a picture of India?

[Fedfan691]

Because they would eat us if they could.

[Wakko]

i eat animals because they are delicious.

Yeah, if you like to eat meat raised on ginormous industrial factory farms, killed in massive slaughterhouses. I like to buy from local vendors that raise theirs locally.

And when I have to buy from a grocery store, I still think, 'hmmmmm, If I were this tasty, I wouldn't blame anyone for killing me, either.'

And, well, we're omnivores.

Oh, and, yeah, again they're tasty. Honestly, do lions feel guilty when they eat a zebra? It's not exactly like cows or chickens are endangered, now, is it?

I agree with you all. I'm looking for good logical arguments why it is okay to eat animals, not good practical arguments

[/ QUOTE ]

You can't argue logically against an illogical statemtn, like "it's not ok to eat animals"

here is some crap anyway: http://www.vrg.org/nutshell/omni.htm#evidence

The real key here is, you calmly tell the offending vegetarian that humans have evolved to the top of the food chain, and not eating them is an affront against nature itself.

I think a better question is, why is it not okay to eat other animals like, say, dogs and cats?

Don't try to convince her she is wrong about anything. Ever! Yesh. Ask her to help you stop eating them also. Like go have dinner with her or something stat.

[baumer]

Just tell her that you only eat meat because you believe plants feel too much pain when they are harvested.

Poor plants, with all these mean vegetarians hell-bent on making them extinct.
