Do you think man is a vegetarian by nature  |
|
do u think that the human body is essentially designed to eat and digest vegetarian food but later on he started eating non veg food..so the body had to adopt for this change.do you think it is justified to kill a living being just to satisfy your tongue enjoyment

1. mikeyr6000le (1783) | 3 years ago | I think our bodies were made to eat meet. Look at our teeth. We have grinding and ripping teeth. One for plants and one for animals. We can also digest meet pretty easily so we must be made to eat it.

| paypalraj (64) | 3 years ago | if our ancestors were monkeys then we must be designed for eating plants and not meat. thats what i feel
| |

|
emeraldisle (8978) | 3 years ago | Gorillas do also eat meat. Not all ape animals eat just vegitables. So if we did evolve from apes then it makes sense that we'd eat similar objects.

lordwarwizard (10401) | 3 years ago | The answer to your question would depend on the religion of the person.
For me personally, I am inclined to feel that killing another for food is somewhat wrong. Am I really worth its sacrifice? Who am I really? I can't be sure I am that deserving.. but then away, I have been brought up with an omnivore kinda of diet so it's quite hard for me to ween off meat. And the crucial thing is, I don't eat vegetables (since young, I just can't make myself like them)... so if I stop eating meat (or fish for that matter) and I don't eat vegetables... what do I eat?:P

3. Fargale (329) | 3 years ago | I know this is a moral and personal issue and the answer can only be decided for yourself, but I'll raise a similar question: is it justifiable for a lion to kill and eat an antilope in the jungle? Why is it, or why is it not?
Killing for sustenance is simply a part of nature. We might someday rise over it - in time, science will find better ways of sustenance - but for now, I personally wouldn't sweat much over it.

|
| paypalraj (64) | 3 years ago | humans do not require to eat meat for their sustainance they can very well sustain themselves with vegetarian food. eating meat is not a sustainance issue. its more of leisure luxury for our tongue. in case of lion and antilope its the question of sustainance

4. JJLoa44 (281) | 3 years ago | According to our teeth, we were made to be omnivores. To eat both meat and vegetables. So I think our bodies require both.
| |
| |
|
|
| paypalraj (64) | 3 years ago | our teeth as they are today could be a outcome of our highly adaptable nature
| |
|
|
Fargale (329) | 3 years ago | So did our evolutionary ancestors have teeth that were appropriate for eating vegetables and not meat? When did hominids begin eating meat? Yours is a valid question, what about you try to do a little Wikipedia or Google search on the matter and tell me whether the results corroborate your supposition?
[Please note, this is NOT a bait neither a loaded question. I genuinely don't know about the eating habits of our evolutionary ancestors; I'm curious to what you will find about this.]

5. jricbt (1177) | 3 years ago | The human body can, generally speaking, eat both meat and vegs.
And either way is going to kill living beings, and if you talk in numbers, a vegetarian is responsable for the killing of a lot more of living beings than a omnivore. How many inocent plants that were unable to move and defend themselves did you killed or was responsable for the killing when you were eating your vegetarian meals?
| |
| |
|
|
| paypalraj (64) | 3 years ago | you need not kill the entire plant to have vegetarian food. you can pluck only a few leaves or fruits and the plant can grow again;in fact the plucking of fruits helps in distributing the seeds elsewhere and the species spreads to other areas. but in case of animals you have to kill it entirely which is much more cruel
| |
|
|
jricbt (1177) | 3 years ago | But Sometimes you do need to kill. And remember, many times the plants, even when not needed, they are killed, so the area can be replanted, or a new plant (sometimes you have to rotate the plants in the area, species A on year one, species B on year two, rest on year three, and so on). So either way it is about DEATH. Life lives by eating life. For a human being live he/she must EAT another former live being. You need to eat live beings (plant or animal) that were once alive and were killed so you can stay alive. You can't deny it.
You can argue if it is more cruel to kill an animal. Ok, from my viewpoint, which I do not claim to be right to everyone, I am ok with animals being killed so I can enjoy their meat, well cooked. And I don't really care if they suffer or not. But either way, veg or omnivore, the death of another(more than one) live being was necessary for your, or mine, survival and in absolute numbers, many more plants are KILLED than animals to sustain a number of human beings.
Death is always necessary and part of life, so Life can continues.

| paypalraj (64) | 3 years ago | life lives by eating life
this is what is happening, but i am trying to quetion whether it is really necessary that life should live (only) by eating other life
i am trying to question whether as humans we can change the above statement.
can we say that "life does not necessarily have to live "ONLY" by eating other life
can we not live without killing the entire plant

Fargale (329) | 3 years ago | It will probably be technically possible, someday. Who knows, synthetic food, better forms of producing and processing organic food to supply our needs without the need to kill other beings. But that's something for the far future, and we have other problems right now that are WAY more important than this idea.
As long as there are children dying of hunger and aids in third-world countries, I'll never care for the death of a million cows.
| |
|
|
| paypalraj (64) | 3 years ago | Absolutely agreed on that point
but what about the luxury and leisures of the tongue of the so called "first world countries"
there are some of them who wont even eat the non veg dish served at them just because the garnishing was not done properly or any such silly reasons.
what about the daily food wastages that happen in the so called "first world countries"
Do they really value food?
Do they have any concerns for such people who are dying out of hunger and hiv
| |
|
|
Fargale (329) | 3 years ago | That also happens in third-world countries. To a lesser degree, but it happens. And is all the more reason to worry about these substantial problems first. Of course I think a world where no animal NEEDS to be killed for sustenance would be nicer than the alternative, but I don't think it is a very important issue; not when compared to the kind of problems the world already has.
| |
|
|
| paypalraj (64) | 3 years ago | all that i am saying is
killing somebody for need is different and killing somebody for mere luxury is different
and how important a certain issue is, is his or her personal perogative.
| |
|
|
| paypalraj (64) | 3 years ago | i think fargale has responded the best in this discusion but i dont know how to change the best reponse i have already marked. can anyone tell me how i can change it?
| |
|
|
Fargale (329) | 3 years ago | I'm afraid that's not possible... or at least, not that I know of.

7. emeraldisle (8978) | 3 years ago | Early man was designed to eat meat more then vegetables. They could not plant and harvest but had to forage and hunt. They would eat what they could find, whether it was vegetable or meat. The body was designed for it from the teeth on downwards. It has also been shown that hunters or fighters through out history who ate meet were stronger and bigger. That's why Samuri's were given meet even when it was scarce, they knew they needed their warriors to be physically stronger then the enemy.
Eating meat is more then just enjoyment of the tongue. Eating meat does give nutrients and especially protien for the body. You decide to get it from beans while others get it from meat. That is their choice. Either way though eating of something is taking from the earth. It's part of how life is. We take from it and eventually our bodies go back into the earth.
