I'm a hypocrit too! I feel like Earth isn't suppose to be like this.

I'm thinking My Space is a good thing...It helps get the bad guys. It helps us to comunicate with each other. Problem is they may start taxing us for it. They (The Brotherhood who is incharge of the great cooperate machine doesn't want us to talk) cuz we can get the crazy notion of a revolution.We'll want to start to changing things.

The end of violence to the Earth, Humans, Livestock and all Animals has to start somewhere..You have to check it to change it.I'm concious of what I eat as far as r as eating something that had a pulse..I know MD's doesn't give a shit about that.

Machines don't have a concious they are built for greed..the fastest cheapest way.They are not built to care about anything living.

We the people right? One for All or None for One. 

A lion is a canivore- it has to kill to survive. It can only survive on meat.

Man is a herbivore. You only eat meat because a multi billion pound money making meat machine has sold it to you. Made it as easy as walking into a shop and buying it ready to eat. You're quality of life in comparison to a vegan or vegetarian will be shorter and of pprer quality.- That's a sceintific fact. You harping on about living in a cave shows the level of your mentality. People like you destroy and kill all that is beautiful. 

Wrong!

Man is an OMNIVORE.

Level of "mentality"?  Check your Level of "Intelligence"!

I thought this site was anti-McDonalds....not some Vegan homer site.

That is strange? I have one of my food and nutrition text books in front of me and it states that our ancestor hunter-gathers consumed copious amounts of meat; mind you they killed the animals with their bare hands - So much for humans being purely herbivorous.

A shorter life?? Poorer quality?? Wouldn’t be too sure about that claim. A nutritious diet including meat helps provide adequate vitamin and mineral intake. I am by no means saying that a vegetarian diet is not healthy because these nutrients can be adequately met without eating meat but it is more difficult. Meat consumption helps meet dietary requirements more efficiently than a vegetarian or vegan diets therefore it can not possibily be any worse of a choice than choosing to be vegetarian or vegan.  It is easy to miss out on protein, vitamin B12, and minerals such as calcium, zinc and iron when meat is eliminated. It’s ironic because meat consumption helps the absorption of iron from plant foods but seeing as that’s a no go for vegetarians and vegans heightens the risk of anaemia. I guess that really explains it all… I guess you are all in a daze suffering from light-headiness due to a lack of oxygen to the brain.   10 bucks a nice steak would do you well!!!

p.s I do love eating salad… accompanied by some nice juicy meat!!

...miss out on protein, vitamin B12, and minerals such as calcium, zinc and iron when meat is eliminated...

that has got to be one of the worst, unresearched statements I have ever heard!

Vegetables have far more nutrients than any piece of meat and no cholesterol which is the leading cause of heart disease.  Meat also has no fiber, which means that it doesn't digest as easily.  Vegetables wont rot as fast, meat is known to rot inside of intestines.  Nothing like some rotting flesh inside of you to make you strong and healthy!

Any illnesses that vegans/vegetarians suffer from is not from the lack of eating meat, but rather from a lack of education on how to properly balance their intake of nutrients.

Also, a steak for instance can have as much as 40 grams of protein!  Woohoo!  Good thing your body is only capable of processing 20 grams of protein in one sitting, which causes your body to suffer by trying to rid itself of all the extra protein.  Despite what the meat and dairy industry want you to think, protein is not the most important thing to consume, it is simply another piece of a larger more complex puzzle of consumption and balance.

You don't ever hear of a balanced Vegan developing cancer or having a heart attack or being over weight.  The average meat eaters food pyramid looks more like this 40% dairy, 15% grains, 25% meat, 10% fruits and vegetables, and 10% sugars/oils.  That equals, high fat, high protein, low nutrients, low fiber and a thirty minute struggle on the toilet haha

I don't know if eating animals is wrong or right, but for practical reasons, everyone should becomes vegetarian at least if not vegan.  Half of the fresh water in the united states is used on livestock.  It takes 16 pounds of grain (enough to feed a whole lot of people) to produce one pound of meat (which meat eaters will carelessly toss aside if not cooked to their liking uncaring of the life sacraficed to sustain their own).  The grazing of cattle is the leading cause of top soil degradation.  simply put, topsoil is what keeps everything on this planet alive and we are losing it at an alarming rate due to chemical agriculture and meat production leading to the use of more genetically modified plants and animals.  This leads to ground, water and air pollution as well does the tons of poo created every day.

Basically the easiest way for a human being to help stop poverty, hunger, animal abuse, and acheive world piece is to simply stop supporting the industries that are destroying our futures.  A plant based diet is the healthiest and most respectable choice a human being could make.

How ironic that you would defend your ways when alls it accomplishes is self destruction, yet it also destroys everyone else.  That is disrespectful of all life!  go on though, keep defending your terrible ways, it's easier than changing for the better

I was looking through the newspaper on the weekend and I came across this advertisement promoting meat… more specifically red meat. Anyhow it had a website underneath of it and how funny was it that the website made statements agreeing with what I was saying. I doubt for one that a campaign created to promote the benefits of meat was created by uneducated people but rather by those that are both highly qualified professionals and working within the health promotion industry. Therefore the fact that my statement regarding vitamins and minerals is reaffirmed by highly educated professionals dismisses your option that my statement was un-researched…

And by the way I did not say an individual misses out completely of those nutrients, I said it was easier to miss out on such nutrients when meat is eliminated… so please do not try to discredit proven and researched information just because you can not read properly

I for one am not comparing a vegetarian/vegan diet with your perceived idea of a typical ‘meat eaters’ diet. I am comparing the typical vegetarian/vegan diet (no matter how nutritiously balance you claim it to be) with a health balanced diet.

Here is more information from the website… pretty sure everything below kinda discredits all your theories… oh damn…

Questions and answers on a wide variety of health and nutrition related issues.

Q. Does meat take a long time to digest?

A. Meat is made up of protein and some fats and is easily digested.  It will generally leave the stomach within 2-3 hours and be fully digested in 4-6 hours.  The human digestive system is well designed to digest meat and absorb its wide range of essential nutrients.

Q. Can red meat be included in a cholesterol-lowering diet?

A. Studies show that diets rich in lean red meat and low in saturated fat lead to cholesterol reductions in people with high levels of cholesterol.  As lean meat is not a major source of fat and contains omega-3 fats, it has a role to play in healthy heart diets.  More than 40 cuts of lean beef and lamb have the Heart Foundation's tick of approval, which means they have less than 10% fat.

Q. Is red meat OK in weight loss diets?

A. Lean red meat is a great source to include in a weight-loss diet because it's high in protein and packed full of essential nutrients.  High protein foods like red meat are very filling foods, so you feel satisfied for longer and don't need to eat as much.

Q. How frequently is red meat recommended in a healthy diet?

The recent Commonwealth Health Department guidelines (Australian Guide to Healthy Eating) recommend we eat red meat 3-4 times per week, otherwise high iron replacement foods will be needed. The guidelines recommend women eat about 100g of lean red meat 3-4 times per week and men eat about 125g this often. Two lamb chops or 2-3 slices of roast beef or lamb correspond to 100g.

Fuelling evolution - we are made to eat meat - even ask a dentist!!

The story of red meat and how we came to be

To understand the importance of red meat, you have to go back millions of years to the time when our ape ancestors came down from the trees and moved to open grasslands.

During this time, only the fittest species of early man would survive. Those who adapted to the new surroundings lived on. The big leap came when our ancestors started to eat red meat.

The nutrients in red meat helped our brains grow. Hunting forced us to think. We learnt how to shape tools, communicate and work together – we were turning into human beings.

Over thousands of years, our bodies adapted to a diet high in red meat. In fact, our bodies and nutritional needs are very similar to our early ancestors.

This is why your body instinctively desires red meat for health and wellbeing.

Today, red meat still remains an important part of the diet. Lean red meat has an impressive bundle of nutrients:

• Omega 3s to help keep the heart in good shape and to support brain function
• Zinc to help maintain the immune system
• Vitamin B12 to help protect DNA and the nervous system
• Iron to carry oxygen in the blood for energy and vitality
• Protein to help satisfy the appetite for longer and help control hunger pangs.

It’s no wonder the Australian Dietary Guidelines continue to recommend we enjoy lean red meat 3-4 times every week. After all, that’s the way nature intended it. 

- i am not defending 'my way' there is no such thing.. i am simply repeating what i have learnt, what i have RESEARCHED and what professional dietitian's and doctor's all say... not my fault you have lettuce leaves stuff in your ears!!

I checked out this nutritional website.  They have a section where you can select your specific diet and it will help you find foods you love.  Being that it didn't have a vegan or vegetarian diet it is safe to say that this is a biased source, and probably funded by the flesh industry...of course they will sugar coat it.  Please show me the conclusive proof that man evolved from ape with the help of red meat.  I laughed so hard I almost cried.  It is so ridiculous.

"This is why your body instinctively desires red meat for health and wellbeing."

my body doesn't, so this is obviously an incorrect generalization.  In fact when I ate flesh I felt sick.  You say it has a filling effect, you like it because you have been conditioned to.  I hate that feeling and it is the reason I quit eating flesh.  No other reason.

However I find it interesting that some of the greatest minds of history were vegan/vegetarian.  Da'Vinci, Newton, Einstein, and Buddha to name a few.

"I for one am not comparing a vegetarian/vegan diet with your perceived idea of a typical ‘meat eaters’ diet. I am comparing the typical vegetarian/vegan diet (no matter how nutritiously balance you claim it to be) with a health balanced diet."

I find this funny since most vegans/vegetarians are balanced eaters (or they wouldn't be able to maintain their diet) and most meat eaters are not.  Whether you are comparing a balanced healthy flesh eaters diet or not, the reality is that it is uncommon.  Just look at all the fatasses dropping dead from heart disease and cancer.

Red meat in a cholesterol lowering diet is ludicrous.  How can you lower your cholesterol by consuming more of it?

It saddens me that you are a nutrionist with such a closed mind.  I don't care if you eat flesh, that is your own choices, though I think the world would be a better place if less people or all people stopped consuming flesh.  You are so unbelievably biased- I would call it trapped personally.  I used to eat lots of flesh, just like most veg's.  Look around the world and see how being veg is a spiritual practice that helps bring enlightenment and compassion.

Wayne Dyer (sp) has s segment about a lady who had a heart transplant.  Afterwords she kept having cravings for beer and chicken nuggets.  It went on for weeks before she discovered that the man who's heart she had was drunk one night, drove his motorcycle to McDonald's, ate nuggets and rode home.  On the way home he wrecked and died.  The memories were stored in the heart.

Another great book called "Flight Manual for the Soul" speaks about this in depth.  (btw a published book carries much mroe validity than ANY biased website ever will).  It speaks about how our memories are NOT limited to our brain but in fact our entire body stores memories and that each cell has the memory capacity of a super computer.  Also in this book it explains how emotions charge energy within our body in one of two ways.  Negative or positive, which is polarized or non polarized.  Polarized energy stagnates in bodies of all living creatures and leads to disease and decay, even animals.

So, next time you eat a burger think not only of the chicken shit you are consuming, but also the pain and cruelty you are swallowing and making part of yourself...hell no wonder you are so heartless and closed minded on the matter.  With all cruelty you eat it's no wonder you can't break away.

Above and beyond the fact that carcasses are fed back to the cows who are herbivores to begin with, these animals live terrible lives, polarizing muc halong the way.  Eating this energy is NOT healthy despite what meat nutrionists will try to convince you of.

Another greta book is called "Thoguht Contagion"  It is the study of Memetics, or collective consciousness.  It tells how thoughtforms self propogate and take holds over whole societies and how some of these are so strong that people will die by them.  Ideas are so powerful.  The meme of meat eating is propogated by society and by fear.  People continue to eat meat because they fear the ridicule they will face by becoming veg.

If you want the truth about the meat industry read "Mad Cowboy".  It is written by an ex cattle rancher who developed cancer and survived by becoming vegan and is now working on spreading the truth.

If you are even half way convinced then you are right, then read those three books and see if you stay firm with your beliefs.  Or just keep defending your fowl ways to make yourself feel better rather than admittign that you have been mistaken.

Alas, I wish you no harm.  I wish you only clarity and insight.  Whether you take my advice and check out these sources (like I checked out yours) or change or not is rarely goign to affect me, but know that I do care about you even though I dont know you and you obviously dont like me.  I don't tell these things to create an argument but to hopefully help your eyes open a little wider.

Ive eaten so many animals it is ridiculous, so dont look to me as if I dont know what Im talking about.  I dont stuff lettuce in my ears, that goes in my mouth.

You can not compare two extremes such as a balanced vegan/vegetarian diet and a poor “flesh eater’s” diet. Your “healthy” vegan/vegetarian diet is of course going to look like the better choice when you compare it to a fat ridden, sugar filled diet but that does not have to be limited to diets containing meat. Non healthy vegan/vegetarian diets can have just as simpler problems, take into account excess fat intake can still result (not as much saturated, but mono-unsaturated and polyunsaturated fats – yes good but not in excess) and over consumption of carbohydrate foods can also lead to weight problems. Eliminating meat does not automatically eliminate the problems you associate with a meat diet.

 The example of the meat diet you talked about earlier is not the norm, yes there are obese people and it would be fair to assume that they do eat the wrong foods, that they have excess saturated fats and sugars in their diet and all that sort of stuff to explain the reasons for the weight problem. Most weight problems are a simple equation imbalance where people just eat way more energy then their body needs or uses.  

The article never said eat more red meat to lower cholesterol… it said by incorporating the recommended 3-4 weekly servings of lean red meat studies have made clear findings that identify red meat as being an important factor in lowering levels of LDL in the blood in individuals that had high blood cholesterol.

Earlier a statement was made that people never hear of vegans and vegetarians suffering from cancer or dying from a heart attack. Who is to say a vegan or vegetarian person hasn’t being diagnosed with cancer or died from a heart attack?? I’m pretty sure it happens all the time. It is not like the habituary in the paper states deaths like; “deceased women, mid thirties, dietary orientation: vegan: died from heart attack, no flower, donate to ‘we are vegans’ organisation”.  

I understand that you have eliminated meat because you simply don’t like it. Fine. But I don’t want non-vegan and vegetarian people to think it is a better, healthier choice because simply it isn’t!!

You reject all the information that backs the statements I have made, not because they are incorrect (trust me it is all true, there is not conspiracy) but because you disagree and that is perfectly understandably. However that does not take away from the fact that there are risks which you choice of diet if you do not include every variety of available food to at least some-what support the nutritional needs of your body because it is so much easier to become deficient in nutrients regardless of supplement use!!

ha some wrong words above.. soz i was in a rush to get to my nail appointment.. so corrections 1st paragraph met is meant and last paragraph which is meant to be with... sigh

lol trapped personality... havent heard of such a term since my pysch class... haha eating meat is not a personality disorder..

neway you seem to be coming from another side of the spectrum... i am talking purely in relation to nutrition, nothing fucking spiritual... to me it's not even about the freaking farm animals or how i eat them everyday of my life without even the slighest remorse. I am simply and clearly cut here talking about the nutritional side of things... i dont want or need bullshit about vegan's and vego's being about spiritual choice... id be on another webpage entirely if i was after spiritual advice...

tale??? tales are generally untrue but the highten risk of vitamin and mineral deficiency throught vegetarian/ vegan diets is no tale... but its ok you can block your ears when you dont like what you hear!!

Exactly – you need to take a supplement – that is exactly the reason such diets are not a good health choice – any dietarian or nutritionist will tell you an adequate diet should supply you with all vitamins and minerals, the fact that you need to take a supplement proves that vegetarian and vegan diets are unhealthy and provide inadequate nutrients. Also vitamins and mineral supplements are not as easily absorbed by the body then those bound to our food… i know a bit about this food study.. cos im doing nutrition at uni…  - so properly know more than you!! lol and trust me none of it is made up… but clearly you survive off ignorance so that comment doesn’t surprise me what so ever!!

OMG, you are one of the dumbest meat eaters i have seen. we know animals don't feel guilty. should i name the countless other stupid shit that meat eaters use as an excuse??? we have a right to state our OPINIONS jackass. i usually don't judge others but you take the cake. lets be insultive to people because they are different. i am so glad abortion is still legal. please don't have anymore. we don't need more dumb dumbs running around.

i am too, a hypocrate

It's a shame you don’t follow suit and put a bag over that face of yours… lol pretty sure the cow’s and other farm-yard animals would all commit suicide if they saw you without it…

Maybe something to think about is your ability to spell. Yeah, loads of people live in caves in Iraq dont they, you thick cunt. Well they probably do now your FASCIST dictatorship has blown all their homes up. TWAT.

Humans also have an appendix which adds extra digestive power to those deep greens and processes chlorophyl.  Lions don't have that.  We should teach meat eaters the common autonomy differences between mammilian herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores.  Carnivores have short digestive tracks and highly acidic stomach acid to ensure digestion before it begins to rot.  Herbivores have a more balanced mixture and much longer intestines since plants won't rot inside of the intestines as quickly.  Carivores sweat out their mouths and drink water by slurping up their water with their tounges, herbivores have pores across their body and drink in gulps.  The teeth of a carnivore are always sharp and made for ripping, herbivores are flat for grinding.  A human only has 4 teeth designed for ripping out of 26 or 30 depending on how you want to count it.

Basically a lion, eats meat because it's body is designed to.  A chimp eats plants because it is designed to.  A human eats meat out of vanity, being that it is destructive to all life and their body is better suited for a plant based diet. 

I dont kill for pleasure. I have never and will never. Sure there are alternate food sources but its a choice we all get to make. Does that make the people who choose not to eat meat better? I dont think so. We all start and end the same way. In between is mine. I am mine. I suggest you listen to the song discustipated by tool. it talks about all things having a life including plants, anything that grows is living in this twist. Thanks for your opinion and good luck with the veggies

first of all mc donalds mass produces animals and kills them for what we call food and they THROW any meat that remains, what do you think happens to the food you complain about? id would be incredibly pathetic of you to believe that they re use it. not only that its illegal by all means.

you cannot compare this to the animal kindom as lions only eat what they kill, they dont kill for capitalism nor do they kill and waste their food. they eat all of it with appreciation. lions are also carnivores, humans are not.

the rest of what you write is so small minded, first off how can you possibly knwo whatr its liek to live in iraq? iraq also has a capitalist system, just because they are not republicans does not make them communists.nor is being a communist, democrat,capitalist,marxist make you low as you have potrayed. .Get off that pedistool you sit on you vile cunt the poster of this blog never once pushes his opinion, you chose to veiw the site.

Well as a Female I wouldn't do to well there period!

It's ok to eat Meat for some. It isn't a soap box. You are not a Lion in the Jungle

that needs to kill for food.You are a Human Being and can go to the local grocery

store or a drive thru. We don't know about the brutality that takes place with

 big cooperations - mass murder.

In California I've talk to people who had Cows (old days) on their Farm and they

would have a  man come out and do what had to be done the Cow never knew. 

He would sit with the Animal until the time was right..Sort of like a Lion, I guess.

Ever been to a slaughter house? Thank God I am not a Beast of burden.

You think animals don't know wus up? A lion knows how to kill and also they

kill when they need to eat. Further capitalism isn't just in America it's all over the

world. We're feeding farm Animals in the Rain Forest.

I guess you are addicted to Big Macs. : ) It's OK, good to speak up.

Also, I don't want to close down Md's they give people work but I think we

need to keep things in check. Peace

"the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house"

Don't even buy in to their garbage. You've found a way to spread the word, a way that reaches thousands upon thousands of people. Rejoice.

i appreciate what you're doing.

thank you.

stay revolutionary.

remember that every great truth begins as a blasphemy.
