Why doesn't meat help meat eaters be healthy?

[Woodznutz]

"Growing up" ≠ becoming a callous, apathetic asshole.

In fact, the very opposite is true. Growing up means becoming a wise and decent human being. Only indoctrinated, stunted, damaged people end up as heartless assholes.

Very few 4H kids grow up this way.

No, I'm not saying that they shouldn't exist at all. They have just as much right to exist as you or I do!

Where would they 'exist'? Not on farms, that's for sure. How long do you think a farm animal (excluding swine) would survive in the wilderness.

What a fucking hypocrite.

If we don't eat them, why would we raise them. Their purpose for existence is to feed us.

No, that is NOT their purpose for existence! Gosh, the anthropocentrism in ^ your statement above is off the charts.

I mean, really....listen to yourself. Those animals only exist for YOUR personal self-serving desires? That statement is so ignorant and blind it's almost mind-boggling to me, the level of indoctrination.

Open your eyes. These animals are not objects, they are sentient, they have individual personalities, they have a strong desire to live and enjoy life, they are curious, they are social, they form friendships, I could go on and on. Stop being intentionally blind:

Ever heard of animal sanctuaries? Or just with people who will take care of them and treat them with the same love and respect that we give to dogs or cats.

Can't watch because I can't sign in as a google subscriber

That's simply NOT TRUE

Can I watch YouTube without Google Account?


You can certainly browse YouTube and watch YouTube videos without having a Google account.

What does that say about those who don't these animals to even exist? These kids know from the getgo the fate of their animals. The joy of raising them trumps the grief of their demise.

"Their demise"????

You sound like an abortionist. Dodging any responsibility for how these creatures of God are brutalized.

I think those 2 documentaries I posted have an age restriction on them. So unfortunately i'm pretty sure one has to be signed in to google to see them.

But I absolutely agree with the second thing you said. Good point, it is SO similar the abortionist mindset.

The majority are raised for food or the production of food (eggs, dairy products).

I mean, really....listen to yourself. Those animals only exist for YOUR personal self-serving desires? That statement is so ignorant and blind it's almost mind-boggling to me, the level of indoctrination.

Farm animals exist to enrich mankind in various ways, including food.

Open your eyes. These animals are not objects, they are sentient, they have individual personalities, they have a strong desire to live and enjoy life, they are curious, they are social, they form friendships, I could go on and on. Stop being intentionally blind:

If you were queen of the world would you ban the eating of meat?

Okay. THAT makes some sense

I can't watch that one. I had to run a gauntlet and the last hurdle was to sign in with google. See for yourself.

I'm pro-life, sorry.

I have no responsibility for the way others treat their animals.

Unless you breed them, they will be gone in an 'animal' generation.

 

[Woodznutz]

Apology accepted.

 

[buttercup]

I think mankind can handle the job of keeping cows, pigs and chickens from going extinct. Come on, it's not rocket science. When people have a paradigm shift and begin to view animals in general (and particularly farm animals) in a completely different way, then you begin to love and respect them, just as you do dogs, cats, horses and other animals that people love and respect.

Your concern for the welfare of the animals is touching

No. You're not. And yes you do have that responsibility.

"Unkotare"

Nothing to contribute so he "funny's" everything he can't refute.

And then I find this bizarre definition:

unkotare \ woon-ko-ta-re \ , noun;

Japanese. Roughly translated as dripping poop. This word is used to describe a pornographic genre commonly known as Scat.

How fitting for a troll with nothing worthwhile

 

[Woodznutz]

No. You're not. And yes you do have that responsibility.

I did not know that about myself.

I want a healthy deer population.

Here's a healthy specimen (the deer looks pretty good too).

In case we want to eat them someday?

Edit:...don't want these animals...

 

[Carl in Michigan]

What a fucking hypocrite.

How so scat?
