No hard feelings at all, I just want to understand with more logic behind, ‘it’s more humane.’ For thousands of years now we have eaten meat. We have canine and incisor teeth, used for eating and ripping apart meat, and there is livestock that is used for there meat. We as humans, have farmed livestock and hunted animals for multiple uses since we have been able to stand up straight. During the age of ‘Lucy’, we ate mostly berries, and nuts, but yet also fish. As I see it, we have evolved into being omnivors. If we were supposed to be vegan/vegetarian, we would have all molar and premolar teeth, and would grind are teeth back and forth much like a cow would. Chickens, pigs, cows, goats, sheep, and more are raised for livestock. These animals would more then likely not even exist if it weren’t for human cultivation. So what I understand is, you just wouldn’t want these animals to exist at all because you don’t think we should eat them? They do not have the intellectual knowledge like that of a human. They may have feelings, but they aren’t aware. Yes, they treat animals inhumane, and I won’t eat certain brands of meat (ex. Perdue), but only because the added hormones and testosterone which are simply not healthy. Meat however, is healthy. Unless you are taking protein, planning and understanding what vitamins and such go in to your meals I don’t see how anyone can say not eating meat is healthy. Specially 100% vegan. And for those of you who say you were, ‘born vegan’. No, you were raised that way. You didn’t chose is, your parents did for you. Do you not think that if you keep picking tomatoes from a tomato plant, that it will not eventually wilt and die. How do trees know its time to shed there leaves, or how flowers know it’s time to germinate? Do they feel the cold, do they have a sence of time? How does a venus fly trap know a bug has landed inside of it? Can they feel it land on them, can they taste the acids in the bug?
What makes it a life stlye not a diet? How come some vegans will wear leather but not eat a cow?
