Vegetarians are wrong?

Question

Humans have the specific teeth to eat meat which means it is part of what nature wants us to eat, vegetarians say that it is cruel to animals to kill them for food, but that is what all carnivorous or omnivorous animals do, including humans which happen to be animals also. nature defines humans as being omnivorous and yet some people defy nature and are vegetarians, it doesn't make sense!

Answer 1

Vegeterians aren't "wrong", they just choose to not eat wonderful bbq burgers and hot dogs.

Answer 2

Hi Tito,
It has been fully researched, and established, that human beings do not need to eat meat to maintain full and abundant health. In fact, when you cook your meat, the proteins become coagulated, cannot be digested, and must be stored in the bodie's tissue as toxins. If there is any nutritional advantage to eating meat, you would have to eat it raw. There are better and more humane ways to get protein than slaughtering the gentle creatures we share this planet with. Raw milk and eggs are almost perfect forms of digestable protein, and do not require the deaths of anything. The bottom line is, that almost everything we are being told about nutrition, is based on research paid for by the food industry. We are told we need meat, because there is a lot of money in it. We are told not to drink raw milk, because pasturized milk can be left on the shelf for a long time, thus making it more marketable. Food is big business, and big profits. Our actual nutritional needs are quite simple. In cultures where little meat is eaten, and diets are simple, the diseases we suffer from are virtually unknown. I encourage you to use the net, and learn more about raw and vegetarian life. Some people tend to make a religion out of it. I myself am not exclusively vegan, or even vegetarian. Having said that, I try not to fill my belly at the expense of another's life. If you have any questions about the morality of eating meat, visit a slaughter house, if you can get them to let you in. Have you ever noticed that schools never take the kids on field trips to the slaughter house? Fastest way to turn them into vegetarians! If there is no slaughter house close by, rent the movie Prime Cut, with Lee Marvin. I bet you wont ever eat a hot dog again.

Answer 3

Humans are part of an artificial world. With our own artificial rules we set what we want. So, anything we want it to be good, it's good.

Now, nature does not care about our rules. Nonetheless, eating meat may not be so natural. Think about how not many people eat raw meat, actually. If we were so omnivorous, we would not mind to eat raw fish, poultry or meat. Apparently, we just don't like raw meat very much, so, are we really omnivorous?

I just wonder, because I have been eating less meat lately and I don't seel to miss it that much. And I do not consider myself to be really vegetarian. But I do not really know much about it.

Answer 4

Wrong? I don think so. I mean been a vegetarian to our body. Some people prefer to eat meat but some prefer to eat vegetable. Have you ever seem a animal (lion or tiger) killing some other animal for food? We human are like them. The only different is that we have other people to kill for us. Therefore i think there is nothing wrong been a vegetarian.

Answer 5

you do have a good point about how nature intended for us to be equipped for both meat and plant eating...however we have had our same set of teeth since we were first created(i don't believe in evolution!), so we had to be prepared for whatever was available--be it some wild berries or an animal.
however, time has passed and we have changed our mind set. therefore, whatever nature has originally given us is no longer being used. to me that is ok. vegetarians are much healthier because they don't consume as much fat and cholestoral(sp) as meat eaters do. as far as animal rights go...i believe that God created animals for us to eat. as long as the animals are raised freely without chemicals and abuse, i'll eat them.
all in all, it's a modern time. if a person doesn't want to eat meat, that's fine. it isn't hurting the meat eaters any. ;-)

Answer 6

some people imagine that that's incorrect because "God placed animals in the international to eat" or something like that. that's okay to eat meat, yet their isn't something incorrect with choosing now to not. many those who're vegetarians do not get a balanced food regimen. when you're careful although, you could have a healthful food regimen without meat. the actuality is, the final public of meat eaters do not have an truly healthful or balanced food regimen both.

Answer 7

It is cruel how humans keep and kill animals for food. It's just a matter of whether your feelings about that cruelty are strong enough to keep you from eating meat.

Answer 8

I don't think it's wrong to be a vegetarian. Free country. But it's absolutely wrong for a vegetarian to claim that eating meat is wrong. If there is a right and wrong, then eating meat is right. Look at our history. Look at our physiology. And how stupid is it to assign ethics to sustenance? There is nothing immoral about eating meat. We have to eat, and meat contains necessary nutrients that are not naturally found elsewhere.

If eating meat is wrong and not eating meat is right, then why do vegetarians have to supplement their diets with pills to get the nutrients they're not getting by not eating meat?

Answer 9

That is true, but it is not a matter of right and wrong. it is a choice they make.

And if we are "defying nature" shouldn't we stop trying to find cures for all these ailments, like cancer and sickle-cell anemia?

Aren't we contravening what nature wants by creating antibiotics?

All I want is a little consistancy in the thinking patterns, OK?

Answer 10

Vegetarians are not wrong if our guts BEG us not to get any more cows, fish, chickens and pigs into our organisms, after they were brutally slaughtered for your pleasure. We'd be wrong if we didn't listen to what our organisms want. Now, if you can still stick more living creatures down your throat, it would be wrong for you to give that up. It's your choice.

Answer 11

ya, we wouldn't have the mental capacity to think about it at all, if we hadn't eaten meat throughout our evolution! And personally, I say, a cow can run away from you, a carrot can't, so which is more fair to eat?
