Any Vegetarians/Vegans here?

Yep, more than 8. Anyway,

Pre-school and kindergarden does not count.

I am just not inclined to give you my CV on the internet. Either argue against the points I have raised, or concede the point. Don't just try to make ad hominem attacks, it just makes you look like a moron

It is always easier to throw out bullshit than to refute them in detail. It is the contingent upon those who makes the argument to prove the argument, not those who question the argument to refute it in detail.

1. Appeals to authority ... check

And you don't?

In fact it is perfectly valid if the authority is indeed authoritative. Let's see you show validate Fermat's theorem without either appeal to, or plagarizing from, authority. The latter amount to the same thing as former because it is unlikely you would understand what you plagarize.

2. Appeals to nature ... Check

When insufficient evidence exists to make a thorough and fundamental analysis of whether something is necessary, then examining suggestive precedent and analogues is one workable and better alternative to paralysis.

3. Appeals to the people... Yep

And you don't? In fact not only do you do it, you do it duplicitiously.

4. Ad hominem... a couple of times

When you present no argument to attack, yet make yourself so annoying, you get what you deserve.

Need I spell out the obvious?

Let's see, you won't change your mind, and your won't change the topic. I think it is pretty obvious what you are.

Address the argument!

You have no argument. All you do is throw assertions followed by the a wallow in the muddy conceit of your own self-righteousness.

1. Animals are conscious and can suffer
2. Causing suffering is wrong
3. Eating meat causes animals to suffer

Therefore, eating meat is wrong. All we have had so far is a poor attempt to argue that animals are not conscious and an appeal to nature. Both of which I have shown to be nonsense. Try harder

1. Not necessarily true.
2. Mere assertion (so is that a sordid attempt to appeal to yourself as authority?)
3. Not necessarily true

Therefore, fuck off.
