Meat doesnt cause cancer. Why arent carnivores getting cancer and going extinct?? Its more likely to cause heart desease, but thats only if you sit around like a fatass.
God said I can eat meat. I'll eat it.
[spoiler]Genesis 9:3
Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.

It tastes good, way better than shitty vegies.
Do you really think that farmers would just give all the extra food from land that the slaughterhouses occupy away to starving Africans? No. They would sell it. It wouldnt get world hunger anywhere.
I do agree that many animals are abused, but why is not eating meat helping? Theyr not just gonna stop killing cows because a few ppl dont wanna continue to eat meat. I consider it sort of an avenging, because now that I drink the milk, that calf died for a reason, and not just for the milk to be thrown out.
I like my meat. Your tree hugging ideologies wont make me stop eating meat.
I also think it's wrong to force your opinions and/or beliefs upon others. Im guessing you're an atheist, so that's weird that you would go against one of your own defenses.

God also said you shall not kill, a little bit contradicting, isn't it? They wouldn't give it away, prices would drop. You pay them for doing it, yes, you're responsible.

No its not contradicting at all. Hes referring to killing other men. It clearly states that Im allowed to eat animals as well as plants. Even if prices dropped, that still doesnt mean Africans will have enough money to buy it. They dont have enough money for anything. That goes for hobos too. Ppl might buy it for them, but wont make it more affordable. Sure I pay for it, but wouldnt you rather pay for it so that the calf died for a reason rather than it just to be thrown out and the calf die for no reason??

Edited by PietjeVM: 10/11/2014 8:00:54 AMThat you CAN do something, doesn't mean you should. Prices will drop, more people will be able to afford food, history teaches us that when people have food, they have time and money for other stuff, like helping others, developping methods for helping others or just help themselves to get out of poverty. At least no'one will be too poor to buy food anymore. The meat wiil be stocked, 'till someone else buys it, but that way the demand will decrease and less animals will be used, 'till it totally ends.
