    Nearly 8,000,000,000 humans require a lot of food. And it’s better that we eat livestock then depleting the local wildlife for nourishment. That’s a whole point of farming.

    It’s still baffles me that anyone, especially in the last 10 or 15 years, suddenly thinks that this is a barbaric practice that must immediately end, despite the fact that this is the way it’s been for tens of thousands of years.

    Because a bunch of pretentious, condescending jerks with some sort of food fanaticism should be able to bully everyone into their way of thinking.

      This is clearly a sensitive topic for you, so believe me when I say that I’m only talking about myself here. Yes, humans have included meat in their diets for thousands of years, but the recent changes that I feel shift the paradigm are: the scope and scale of industrial farming, the brutal conditions animals now face, and the fact that we have a good enough concept of human dietary requirements that people can finally make the choice to remove animal products from their diets in a healthy way.

        That’s some crazy projection you have there. But thank you for confirming that your entire belief system is based off of complete and total bullshit, just like any religious zealot. Lol.

        How sad for you

            Wow. Terrible reading comprehension, too.

            While this trip down Insanity Lane has been amusing, I’ve better things to do than listen to religious zealots describe their delusions.

            Tell it to your therapist. My bore others needlessly?
