Veganism & vegetarianism
#31
RE: Veganism & vegetarianism
I east fish and poultry, but nothing on four legs. I use almond milk and forgo cheese and butter. I used to eat Activia yogurt for the probiotics but found it better to stay away from all dairy products.

During hunting season in my town they sell the venison in the local grocery store. Eating wild meat may seem more humane than eating industry bred meat but it occurs to me that the body releases certain chemicals (2 in particular that I can’t recall off the top of my head) when in stress that put it into the flight or fight mode. Eating an animal that was killed while running for its life is in essence, eating fear, or at least ingesting the chemicals that accompany fear.

I tried straight up vegetarianism, but when I saw all the chemicals used to make a soy bean look taste and feel like a hotdog, I said fuck that. When I think of all the genetically modified vegetables and the E.coli that’s been going around seemingly on some kind of schedule, I’m like damn I won’t be able to eat anything after a while.

Do you guys feel like it’s easier to be an atheist in a theistic world than it is to be a vegan in a meat eating world?
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.
