The human body is not designed to eat animal products. See this chart: No, I think doctors and science known better. We are opportunistic omnivores, not obligate omnivores. We adapted to eat meat for survival. The western society is not only well past survival point but the consumption of animal products is damaging our health, environment and depleting resources unnecessarily. You don't have to believe me, read through this website and follow the references on it if you're still sceptic: http://www.cowspiracy.com/facts/ The comparison of plants to animals is a common one when you ran out of arguments. A lot of plants give their fruits freely without needing to damage the whole plant but let's say that the plants we kill do feel pain. Veganism is about reducing UNECESSARY suffering. We eat plants to survive while animals are enslaved and killed purely for human enjoyment. Yes.I care about a lot of animals more than I care about most people, and would not want them to suffer. This however doesn't keep me from eating them because I need sustenance and my body was designed to eat omnivorously.
Do you seriously think that you know better than around 200,000 years of human evolution that has designed you to be able to eat meat, as well as fruits and vegetables?
So you're under the assumption that because plants can't tell you that they feel pain that they don't and their life isn't as valuable as your animals are?
You realize that plants are more important than animals as far as your existence is concerned because without them you would have no oxygen and die.
By your logic you should just not eat, wither away and die.
Where did I say that? You do know you don't need animal products to be healthy? This is not a new concept.
Your first point is wrong- check your teeth. Your second point is wrong- doctor's and science disagree with you. I'm not saying you can't develop a diet that sustains you healthily on only meat or veggies, but you were designed for both. Your third point is wrong- its a valid argument, I am very into horticulture and there are male and female plants that both show signs of stress when you change any environmental factor or cut them up. They don't readily give you fruit, you're eating their reproductive cycle. I'm glad you agree on the fourth point because it's accurate and therefore make animals less important in the scheme of things to us. Your fifth point- where you stated you can't care about animals and eat them. As plants are more important life than animals, you should care about their lives and suffering more than animals, therefore, you should kill and eat nothing/die.
I'm sorry there's so much wrong with your comment that I have ran out of energy to reply. It looks like you completely ignored my previous effort to reply to you with blank "you are wrong" replies. To the point that I'm no longer sure if you're serious or just trolling.
