Well panterayall, if you are outraged by this, then you should never go to The Holy Pineapple's thread. You'd be horrified by the slaughtering of mangos that goes around there.

Anyways, being serious now, does this have anything to do with scientology?

Bella, you are bad.

I know of people who skin potatoes ALIVE, chop them into little pieces, mush them together into extremely tight quarters, and then fry them in their relatives' oils. There's some real sick stuff out there.

I have my own colony of zucchini in which i force to populate, then when they are of age, i skin them alive then fry them. How's that for cannabalism?

i dunno bout any of the rest of you, but i personaly HATE soy!! as ampmaster put it before, Humans are omniverous now, but we were once primarily meat eaters.

You know what? I'm just...gonna try to forget that you're a cold-blooded killer...and you're proud of it! Hmph!

Yes. I feel great remorse for that murder, faerie. But I have killed many tomatos.

...You were CUTTING tomatoes?!

I've heard tomatos cry. Yep, I was cutting tomatos, and they started screaming and crying and wailing.

Plants do not have a nervous system and cannot feel pain. Animals are perfectaly capable of feeeling pain and suffering. Most meat, dairy and eggs come from factory farms where animals must endure great suffering and abuse.

On the contrary, there is an extreme form of veganism known as fruitarianism, which abstains from animal products, as well as any plant product which you must kill the plant n order to obtain, it's a bit far-out in my opinion, but I've honestly got nothing against the fruitarians.

I agree with clpo were always changing and look at a cow or horse's teeth they are all big solid blocks of teeth to crush plant matter our teeth don't have those our molars are perfect for crushing and chewing many types of food not just veggies. By the way an animal with chompers kinda like ours is bears (not polar) most bears are omnivores and have similar teeth all though their teeth are much bigger.

.....look at a tiger's set.....dog's set ours

those are both carnivores and thus perfectly adapted to eat only meat manking are omnivores we eat whatever we want.

teeth as in yes canine teeth.....look at a tiger's set.....dog's set ours re very blunt

Humans today may not seem like the best hunters, but that's because modern man's hunting ground is the local Shop-N-Mart. We don't need to hunt today. Our intelligence, combined with our unprecedented use of tools, has cemented our position at the top of the food chain. Humans have eaten meat ever since they learned how to kill with sharp rocks.

Here's something else you may find interesting. You know the appendix? The little annoying semi-organ that does nothing except get inflamed every so often? It is a vestigial organ, the evolutionary descendent of an organ similar to one in modern horses, used to digest tough plant matter. Today, it's completely useless in humans. You can have it removed and it does nothing. Now, if a human organ that aids in the digestion of plants has become unused, how exactly does that make us natural herbivores? Seems to me that we've actually become more omnivorous.

Also, the appendix thing is evidence of micro-evolution within the human species. Neat, huh?

Edit: Nevermind.

Harita go look in mirror and smile at yourself those two fangish teeth are your eye teeth and are also called canines they are designed to rip and tear flesh and our back teeth are designed to ground multiple types of food not just vegitation.

"we re not fast enough to catch our prey"
we don't need to be we are smart enough to trap and kill animals of varying size

"we cannot digest raw meat"
aww bullfeathers I've eaten steak tartar (means raw) and it digested just fine (very tasty)

" even cave men evolved into herbivores"
wtf?

"since they realised that th digestive system n th mouth plus our excretory system re meant for plant digestion"
yeah those cave men had a handle on it I'm sure. But thats wrong cause most herbivores have a multi-chamber stomach to get the most nutrients from the veggies they're eaten. Carnivores who only eat meat have a single chamber stomach much like us but it's still deiffrent cause we eat meat and veggies and we are supposed to eat them both as I've said man is an omnivore and there is no proof to man being either a carnivore or a herbivore.

By the way evolution dictates man eat meat there was not a ton of edible vegiation back then farming was not even a blip of an Idea man was a hunter but we were to slow to run down prey but our ancestors had two advantages: The Human Brain which let man make tools like the spear and opposable thumbs which let us use them

v ve placed ourselves at th top we re neither maent to be eaten by any animal nor are we supposed to eat any we re created to eat plants only... we re not fast enough to catch our prey... we cannot smell fresh blood... we cannot digest raw meat... for that matter even chew it. we donot ve claws to tear our meat apart.the nails that v ve re only meant to protect the blood vessels there which re very sensitive.how do we eat cook it, use a fork an knife... but for the technological developments man s a pure herbivore... even cave men evolved into herbivores.. since they realised that th digestive system n th mouth plus our excretory system re meant for plant digestion...

We know that panter was just joking around. and plants may be the bottom of the food chain but mankind is on top we eat the stuff that eats the stuff that eats the plants (in most cases) or we eat the plants or we eat the stuff that eats the plants.

n important announcement to al u people who think vegans re crazy plant killers.... first of all plants do not have a central nervous systems.. they cannot feel pain... they re just as livin as water, sand....etc.. they re truely meant for human use... nature has created them so u i n al other animals can eat them.. they re foundation of the pyramid of lif... the beginnin of th food chain... pl get this misconception out of your heads that killing plants s wrong.. cause it is not killing at al... on th other animals like us have a central nervous system.. which means they feeel pain...

good choices GL

We have a golden retriever and a basset/beagel mix.

Retriever= Smart
