Guest guest Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Thanks for that Gaea. Great chart! All meat eaters have just one reason to eat meat- lack of sense control. There is no other reason. I just got this through an email from some friends. Some of the most vehement arguments about being non-veg have been from the camp of people who believe humans should eat meat on a biological basis - that we are built to eat meat.

gHari Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Most compelling argument. As far as meat-eaters lacking sense control, I remember my young son's disbelief that people ate animals: "It's not chicken the bird, Daddy. It's flat like paper". I hate my lazy ex-wife for arguing with a four year old for two hours after he had decided not to eat animals anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 LOL gHari prabhu. Such is the way of the world these days. If you want to be pious, you're up against many people!
