Aroura: for my part I'm just teasing.

Stay with us, please.

Falafel /w tzatziki and tabouli, all snuggled up in a pita, french fries on the side.  Mana from heaven.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Love it.  My best friend in high school's line was "if God didn't want us to eat animals, He wouldn't have made them out of meat."  

But undeniably, eating lower on the food chain is good for the environment and all.

Aurora, I have come to just skip right over the majority of posts Rhythm makes to me. Trying to talk with him has always proven fruitless because of his continuous straws. It's not worth it.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Oh Cath....how do I love thee, let me count the ways.   Wink

It's not my fault that vegetarianism has taken a counterproductive and entirely fictive narrative of late. Or that people who like to point the finger at meat eaters can't handle having that evil eye turned back at them. It shouldn't be so hard. If you can't take it, don't dish it out. Aroura and I should be fast friends, we're concerned by the same things, we've both taken action against what we see to be a terrible situation. It's hard to be friends with someone, however, when they swallow a lie told about you hook line and sinker, sold by the same groups which you -both- oppose, and then perpetuate it in honest ignorance.

Well, that's very nice of you.  Angel

You're kind of mean and rude. I've noticed this, not just on this thread, but on others as well.  

I'm not saying this to insult you or whatever, just an attempt at raising your awareness.

Not pigs. Pig's'd do just swell on their own.

No, they'd be dead.  We hunt the ones that stray from their pens for reasons unrelated to dinner.  Badass motherfuckers, pigs (much respect...lol)....and If it weren't for us I'd give them the best shot at survival in our absence....but we aren't absent. In the absence of production pigs are a nuisance, much like wolves or mountain lions....and we see what's happened to them. A vegetarian world would not abide their existence any more than our omnivorous world already does...which is not at all. They're a liability.

You if your careful and understanding about where your meat and produce comes from, you can still ear near and not be part of the problem. There are local and organic suppliers all over the place
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
