Meet Your Meat
I think it would be very exhausting being a vegetarian. It would be so hard to try to stay on top of not coming off like a hypocrite on a daily basis especially if your reasons for being a vegetarian or vegan are more on a moral basis. If its for enovironment reasons then you probably will have to be careful with everything you do environment-wise or people are gonna give you that look, that "you fucking hypocrite" look. Which may not matter to some people, but the pro's of eating carrots over steak aren't worth me being considered, and in fact 'being' a hypocrite. And I know I would be a hypocrite and judge myself as one, being a vegetarian wouldn't be worth that label from others or myself.
Also, it is not some established health fact like some seem to be arguing that eating vegetarian is good for you. Many physicians and medical leaders argue that the vegatarian/vegan lifestyle can be an unhealthy diet especially if you are not taking the vitamins you should be taking on that kind of diet plan, and believe their patients who have that kind of diet have more medical complaints than those with a more balanced diet.
Also, someone mentioned (I forget who and am too lazy to check since the thread is so long now) that we shouldn't see ourselves as superior to animals, so therefore shouldn't eat them. So if we're not superior to animals then wouldn't it be fair to say that animals aren't superior to plants? Using the same logic...Plants dont have a voice either and are living creatures which some have argued feel pain...
Sounding silly yet?
I may not consider myself as more important than others, but I am more important than plants and animals, and I feel that my desire to eat them gives them purpose they otherwise wouldn't have.
Animals are nummy nums. Especially cow. I love cow. Enjoy the pic.
