Veganism - the other OTHER religion

[reverendjeremiah]

Your argument sounds incredibly similar to those of Christian nutbags who try to associate Hitler with atheism. Do you associate all vegans with PETA? But then, you're only being half-serious, methinks.

If you took the time to read the entire thread, you would have the answer to that question. Obviously you havent even read the forst three posts I made on this thread. As far as the insults... I am well aware that the less meat a human consumes the more egotisitical and insulting he becomes. I have a friend of mine who is vegetarian with everything other than occasional eggs and cheese. He came across some PETA preists and when they found out he ate eggs they became furious with him, telling him to "evolve" with the snottiest look on their faces...how dare he eat eggs...he must a slope browed knuckle dragger.

PETA assclowns may be vegetarians, but they definitely suck on my meat every day.

P.S> Hitler was vegetarian. Hitler believed that a vegetarian diet could both alleviate personal health problems and bring about a spiritual regeneration.

Do you know that your Führer is a vegetarian, and that he does not eat meat because of his general attitude toward life and his love for the world of animals? Do you know that your Führer is an exemplary friend of animals, and even as a chancellor, he is not separated from the animals he has kept for years?...The Führer is an ardent opponent of any torture of animals, in particular vivisection, and has declared to terminate those conditions...thus fulfilling his role as the savior of animals, from continuous and nameless torments and pain.

Read up on it. Hitler would have made a fine PETA leader.

Good. I'm sure you'll enjoy this lovely piece.

You watch this and cringe. I watch this and start thinking of recipes.

That reminds me. I have new york strips in the fridge and I have to marinate them. Man those calfs look delicious. Hurry up and kill that cow so I can gut em.

You know whats even better? Having a fresh pig slaughtered on sight. gut it and cut it in half and put it on the smoker and invite a shitload of neighbors over for a cookout. Man, you want to talk about fresh crispy pork rinds (with meat on them) smoked on charcoal and mesquite? Fresh pulled barbeque is the shit..watch the children get the sauce all over their faces and then play hard with the other kids...life is great in the country. Hot damn, show me where the cold beer is and we are having one hell of a party.

Dont worry if you are squeemish, I will slaughter it, gut it AND cook it for you if you dont have the stomach to see the plumbing roll out onto the ground. About the only thing that effects me is the occasional smell. Just rub a very small pinch of Noxema on your upper lip and it will block that smell.

If I gut it, then I lay claim to the tenderloin..dont worry, I will share.

A lot of secular humanists hold similar positions to mine, and so do a lot of environmental activists (naturally). Derrick Jensen, Kim Stanley Robinson, Daniel Quinn, among others. Now, if you want to paint a broad brush and call us "religious," it's your prerogative, but I hope you can appreciate the irony in that.

I say again, go back and read my first posts. I have no beef with individual vegetarians who do not evangelize. PETA are the religious freaks.

..but by all means, keep painting me with that broad brush. I may just take that brush and use it to put the barbeque sauce on the pig picking.

As far as that vid, sure they need to find a quicker way to kill the animal, and try to avoid waste.

At the same time I listen to that sad, sad music in the background and think "who the fuck are they trying to kid?" Painkillers? Fuck that. Use the rod gun and be done with it.

If you dont like what you see in that vid, then by all means dont partake.

If you try to legislate what goes on my dinner plate..then me and you are going to have a SERIOUS talk, and it may get awfully physical.
