the veggies are turning on the meat eaters :icon_lol:
No worries
They won't have the strength to do anything about it
Bunch of self-righteous pasty-faced weeds......

It takes 15 times as much land to produce protein from beef than it does from Soya beans.
If everyone became vegetarian it would have a massive effect on the environment. We could produce more food from less land, using less energy, creating less pollution and CO2.
Damn right.
Just imagine all that flatulence.
Then I apologise. I thought you had taken one part of the post to make it look as I thought it was wrong to eat meat.
oh ffs
I have to go through this every time i mention i'm a veggie...enough already!
It's wrong to treat animals as a food source, even though without having done this the human race would not exist.
It's cruel to farm animals, although FF gives the impression that he's never actually visited a working farm to assess this cruelty.
Nature is essentially cruel, it was this realisation that prompted much of the outcry when Darwin first published his theory. Farmed animals have a safer, though unnatural, existence than any wild animal.
I've never understood why some people regard keeping an animal with the ultimate intention of killing it to provide sustenance as wrong,whereas keeping an animal as a pet to provide oneself with pleasure is desirable.
Although to be fair FF does not make it clear whether or not he regards all exploitation of animals as wrong.
I think I'm following this argument from FF.
You can easily buy products that havent been tested on animals in every major supermarket/Boots store in the country. In fact I'd say that products tested on animals are very much in the minority now.
Yep, it's getting better. Everything in our house is Simple (inc me...) who don't test on animals or Original Source (all vegan), both of whom appear very ethical.
So if farming is wrong, is killing wild creatures for food acceptable?
I actually find fishing more cruel and damaging to the environment/livestock/etc than farming.
But that's just me, I'm guessing.

Do you use the same logic for other products? Would you be content with a lower income family buying clothes made in a 3rd world sweat-shop just because they have less money here?

I think the rampant use of 'specious' on this forum has to stop.
It's only being used by people with specious arguments to cover up the specious nature of them anyway.
That's exactly what many such families have to do to keep their head above the water.
Original Source is owned by Cussons, who test their products on animals.
