What are your thoughts on eating meat?

I think it's the method of killing the animal that most people are confused about. I don't mind eating meat because it's just natural. Every predator has a method of killing its prey in a manner that's usually quick and painless. Or if it's a slow killing, the prey is usually knocked out from the immediate shock or fainting from deprivation of oxygen. But humans are pretty brutal and usually find a way of causing the most harm to animals when eating them. I try not to think about it but hey, I need my meat.

While I like that we are open to all kinds of topics, some just generate very negative feedback and turn into trollfests; mostly "You don't share my opinion? DIE!!" type deals. I don't want to see this continue down that road.

As a proud meat eater, I must say that the consumption of meat does have its benefits for the human body. Mostly in the form protein, which is essential for muscle growth. As I am keen to lifting weights as a hobby, I need that source of protein (sorry, but I despise those shakes; they taste horrible). If you take that away, how will you get that protein? Well, I guess you could eat bugs, as they are a good protein source as well.
 
i eats meats with my feets. i love beef i eat meat, cheese and bread exclusively. mmm mmm, i don't support animal cruelty/abuse though. that sucks.
 
Personally I don't value the life of an animal like I do human life. I understand that alot of people do and I totally respect that, but I just have a different outlook on life I guess. I have pets and I love dogs but I'm not one of those people who treats them like a family member. If my dog dies sure I'll miss it but I'm not gonna fall into depression over it, thats just who I am. I'm not a cold person or anything, I like to think I'm rather compassionate. I just don't see in animals what others do, I guess. However nothing deserves to be tortured, I don't condone animal torture of any kind (although by buying processed meats I guess I do with my dollar). If you want to be a vegetarian I respect that, just don't try to convert me into one bc you think your morals are superior. Thats just as annoying as Christians telling you that you're living your life the wrong way bc your gay or bc you have sex with someone before you marry them.
 
I eat meat, I love animals. I am, admittedly, a hypocrite.

I love my cats more than I love most of my family, because they are my family. Nothing can cheer me up more than my black cat, not even fellatio on a pile of money while eating Godiva bars; she understands exactly what to do to make me legitimately laugh. Cats are fun and have become an integral part of my life, especially working at a home office when distractions come at a premium. Judge me all ya like, I love those silly *******s to death and back.

Dolphins rape other animal. So is it natural?

I doubt dolphins rape other animals. They may rape other dolphins, but all kinds of animals to that. To some people it IS natural to rape people, otherwise there wouldn't be rapists.

It would bother me.

Anyone who wouldn't be bothered by a living animal dying in front of them is missing something.

Although I doubt you'd practice what you preach.

I don't think she meant that she wouldn't be effect at ALL by it, but that she wouldn't be scarred for life by it. (And anyone who'd be scarred for life from such an event has something wrong with them.)

I eat meat... mostly chicken and beef. Pork is nasty, aside from bacon... and McRibs. Yum.

WTF @ Zoop?! lmfao
 
I love meat! I'll eat any type of meat at least once! I've had everything from chicken to snail to frog to gator+croc to kangaroo.

Meat FTW
 
It's the way of the food chain bro.

Snakes eat mice, why? Cause it's WHAT they have to eat to survive.

We eat meat, why? Cause a) It's DAMN good, and b) It's what we eat to survive.

It's ALL part of the food chain man..

But if a living animal does die in front of me, I do feel bad.

--

I once shot this deer hunting with my dad, back when I was 18, we hung it, drained it cleaned it & then ate it. It was so good. Jerkey sticks and all that... Mind you, my point is I did feel bad...
 
If no animal ate another, [as in humans eating other animals or other animals eating humans], the world wouldn't have much room. Pretty much everything points towards it being part of human nature to hunger for meat, and even if you're religious most of them describe it as an affliction on man.

[Yawn missed most of the topic] But, like I said before eating another animal isn't unjustifiable. It's survival and if you want to bring psychology up on it, meat eaters may have a dependency caused by ancestors. Not directly the person's fault in such a case.
 
When i first saw the title of this thread i couldn't help but think of this picture which i found on Rockhardmilkgun profile..
KFC_closing_early.gif
lol yea i know its chicken

Anyways on topic people can eat whatever they want but to say that eating meat is wrong because of some poor animal is just wrong those animals were made a reason. :)
 
This is all you Justin..

not to be a dick or anything but its true.. animals die so we can eat 'em.. because they are tasty
i personally am a carnivore.. and no it wont bug me if an animal is slaughtered in front of me

i also agree with hydroxybot.. why do you complain about slaughter if the game we all know and is basically all slaughter
i mean, it may just be a game but mortal kombat simulates, human slaughter...and you enjoy it right?
 
There is a lot of scientific evidence that supports that it is indeed natural for a human to eat meat, first, humans taste buds love things that are sweet, sour, and salty, because it helps us know what is good to eat, we want to eat fruits and vegetables and fatty meats, because its actually important. Also, we have canine teeth, herbivores have flat teeth for grinding, carnivores have sharp teeth for ripping, if we didnt need meat, we wouldnt have these babies ;)
 
Meat is a necessity for me due to my restricted diet because of the amount of allergies I have. On top of that, I love the taste of meat. I eat beef, pork, chicken, lamb, goat, turkey. Ive seen all the factory farming videos, and as bad as they are, they dont phase my love of meat one bit.

...and you must not be very intelligent.

I recognize that it's morally unjust, but I eat it anyway. I wouldn't flinch at eating a human being either.

Again, a strong difference between actual human death, and make pretend.

If people were literally dying when I played the game, I wouldn't play the game.

Fair enough oh sensitive deep one. You sound like a pretentious hypocrite. :) Haha. We may as well quit playing Mortal Kombat as well. It's a murder simulator! We have such high morals and totally aren't hypocrites, so let's do that!

All your doing is calling names, and making a laughably bad argument.

so I'm not intelligent because animal slaughter doesnt phase me? or because i called you a pussy via youtube?
if the youtube one is the right one than dont take it to heart its just a joke (kinda)


and I also dont believe what you said about the whole "if people are really dying you wouldn't play" because as much as you say it bothers you deep down you enjoy human suffering as much as anyone else... it's in our nature to be entertrained by such things (probably why lots of people enjoy extreme gore in media, such as games and movies)


hopefully that makes sense..it's late and junk....
