Plants move toward stimulus just like mammals so they clearly feel the warmth of the sun just like we doSo you know for a fact plants don't feel?Vegetarians are vegetable killers anyway, they just refuse to see the truthWhat We Owe a Rabbit | Thomas Nagel

The idea that we must stop eating meat is basically unscientific and foolish. We are Omnivores and depend on meat for many of our essential ingredients to survive, vegans and vegetarians must take special care and must do specific things to make up for the lose of meat in their diet. I agree we should not abuse animals but yes we should eat meat and that means harvesting animals. I also agree that we should use them in scientific processes for OUR benefit.
The claim it is morally wrong to kill animals is foolish short sighted and I believe IGNORANT. Every animal that is a meat eater KILLS other animals. And failure to control population would result in massive deaths due to starvation of animals and ruination of Human crops.
Yeah, because a carrot is just like a pig who is as smart or SMARTER than your dog, and has the cognitive abilities of a 3 year old child.
But I'm pretty sure you were joking and not using that as an argument.
Pigs can speak, do math, and talk! Wow. Let's hear them!
Pigs don't have to do any of those things, they are still sentient being who can think, feel, and they are just as smart or even smarter than your dog.
The point, which you either ignored or didn't grasp, was that they are not the same as a carrot, which does not have a brain or the ability to feel pain and suffer.
Don't tell me you're another one who is equating a vegetable with sentient, intelligent animals?
Plants don't have a brain or a central nervous system. But we are not talking about a house plant. We are talking about plant-based FOOD that God created for us to eat. God created foods like fruits, veggies, nuts, seeds, grains, legumes, etc. for the specific purpose of being food.
So do you really think a good God would create an apple or banana that is designed to be food with the ability to feel pain? Yes or no?
