Yeah, as if civilisation didn't matter: our culture, more than our diet, is probably in charge of that now. |

Where do you draw the line between animal and plant? Why is eating an animal 'bad', but eating a plant 'good'?
And if you (vegans) believe meat-eating is bad purely on the basis of animal treatment, do you drink milk or use any sort of dairy product? A vegan who is a vegan on the basis of animal treatment would not be able to touch roughly 99% of the food and liquids available on the current market. |

If any of this mattered, humans wouldn't be at the top of the food chain catching and releasing 4,600 pound 16-foot great white sharks* :o
*I just watched that thing on NatGeo :o :o |

Watch out for those carnivorous sloths with their big long claws.

He may look friendly but he'll eat you alive. |

They're delicious.. This is going dangerously close to ******** territory but I actually grew some pleurotus ostreatus culture and innoculated a couple of straw logs i kept in my back yard... Whenever they flushed I'd be like "sweet, mushroom omelettes for breakfast!"
To Lews.. If you were referring to my question, I was taking the piss. |
