wooitsmolly By the way Perspectives, since you have turned this into a discussion about whether veg*nism is healthy or not, I would be more than delighted if you could provide some sources for your information (specifically the B12 deficiency issue.) I doubt you will take...

wooitsmolly I didn't start this discussion to talk about vegetarianism vs. meat-eating. The title was "Personal Morals" because that related to the topic... simple. I actually thought of posting this because it comes directly from a conversation I witnessed between a...

dodoguy Hi guys, Couldn't resist interjecting here to make an observation - Eskimos eat meat - lots of it - and lots of blubber too. Big positive - they mostly eat raw meat and bluber, so keeping enzymes & living essence intact. So they have robust...

urbandekay "In my opinion...morality is much larger than what people choose to eat." But the greater of course includes the lesser; all your point here shows is that what one chooses to eat is not all of morality NOT that it is not a part of it. Therefore it hardly...

wooitsmolly Urban - WHEN DID I QUESTION ANYONE'S MORALS? Please point it out to me because I don't remember doing so. Now, of course I did say I think it is hypocritical to say you love animals and then eat meat (when I say animals, I mean those beyond just "pets") but...

dodoguy Hi wooitsmolly, I thought only PETA loved animals (and they really, REALLY love their animals...) But there is probably a double standard at work amongst those who claim to love animals, yet still happily munch on their loved ones' carcasses. IMO they...

dodoguy Just by the by, the phrase "if humans were not meant to eat meat...then why do they need to supplement their diet when becoming vegans and vegetarians?" reminds me of a line in the Aunty Jack album of years back - "If God hadda wanted us to eat veges, then why...
