I think not.Yeah, because I've been fully supportive of his arguments all throughout this thread, right? Have you actually read more than the last page of this thread, or are you just trolling me? And since the answer to that is factually clear based on my actual responses to enrico, let me go ahead with the obvious follow-up: WHY are you trolling me?

Go back to caveman fire pits, and you can dig up bone shards, split open so cavemen could get at the marrow, etc. Humans have strong, well-rooted canine teeth, which are very clearly well-suited to biting into meat.
I don't think you ever seen the canine teeth of a hippo.
They are bigger then those of a lion and yet hippos are 100% vegetarian.
Horses too have canine teeth and so a lot of other fully vegetarian animals.
What about elephants with their tusks?
If you still are not getting the message i will explain to you.
Canine teeth or tusk are not for eating meat but for scaring and eventually fight enemies.
Capish?
This is the nearest human relative, hunting, killing, and eating an animal. Capish?
Quote:Have I said anything about the morality of eating meat? If 90% of people will pocket the money and not attempt to contact the owner, then I can say, "People are primarily selfish when it comes to wallets." Just like if 6/7 people eat meat, they are primarily omnivorous.Quote:Another hint that people are omnivorous is that there are 7 billion people, and maybe 1 billion are vegetarian. 6/7 is not a freak accident-- that's obviously the norm. My argument is that the norm is not better. My argument is that despite an evolved liking for meat, we have the capacity to care enough about other animals not to kill them when we have other means of food-production at our disposal.
Your argument is totally bankrupt.
The number means absolutely nothing.
If i drop my wallet with $ 100 on the ground you will find that 90% of the people who find it will pick it up and keep it while maybe only 10 % will try to contact the owner so they can return the wallet.
Does this means that 90 % are right and the 10 % wrong or the opposite?
Quote:Except that everyone I know, and most of the people you know as well, eat both meat and vegetables. Do you actually know what "omnivore" means?Quote:But making shit up doesn't help anybody. It just serves to discredit vegetarians who DON'T spew shit.I did show that the theory that man is omnivore is totally bankrupt by show that since man is man he has never being omnivore.
Quote:I show what an omnivore look like and i show that man is totally different.Yes, it is. The salient feature of being an omnivore is eating both meat an non-meat foods. People do this, as do chimps. Because that's what "omnivore" means.
I show that man does not salivate for raw meat while omnivore do salivate for.
I show that the the digestive system is different.
Is this shit?
Quote:I do understand that for someone who is stuck in the dogma of ignorance is quite difficult to admit that they are wrong but that is normal too.*holds up mirror, wondering if chimp will recognize its own reflection in its comments*
I never expect that people living in the gutter of dogma admit that they are wrong.
That is why the rot is so difficult to eradicate.
Enrico, I'm a tried-and-true vegetarian. Does it not bother you at all that even other vegetarians want you to stop making up goofy arguments that contradict observable reality?
