are vegetarians more ethical by not eating meat?

[ideologue08]

God shouldn't even come into this. Humans are omnivores. We can eat meat if we want to. If we weren't meant to eat meat, meat would make people ill all the time. Didn't you learn about the food chain at school? It's perfectly natural for humans to eat meat, so nobody should be made to feel guilty about it.

Category error, we're not talking about the physical capacity to kill animals, we're talking about its moral justification or lack thereof. This kind of reasoning has been repeatedly refuted, even within this very thread.

Let me illustrate the fallacy: Men are often physically stronger than women. From your logic above it would follow that men are not acting immorally if they rape women because they have the biological capacity to.

I believe that's what a scientist would call bullshit.

I'm not Christian, I'm Muslim and plus "thou shalt not kill" does apply only to human beings. By your logic "thou shalt not steal" also applies to animals? Haha

"Haha" is all you have for an argument? An animal doesn't steal because they are not agents to the law, simply because they have no way of comprehending the law. Thanks for reminding me why I so strongly distrust your dogma.

Who cares if Atheists aren't convinced, it's none of their business. All that matters is the fact that I am convinced God said so and so I'm going to eat meat, I don't give a shit what other people think. Nobody's business apart from mine.

Great then. Thanks for deteriorating the noise-to-signal ratio here.

You're the one that said the ten commandments don't only apply only to humans, stupid idiot. I eat meat because of my theology. If you're not down with that, you can kiss my ass.
