And it should also be noted that any honest vegetarian or vegan will tell you that they would kill and eat an animal with their bare hands, raw, if they were starving to death. But you'll be very lucky to find many that would admit to it. I know a fair few vegetarians and only one of them has openly admitted that they'd do this to save their lives.

We don't need meat at all. People, including me, just like the taste.

Actually, there are necessary protiens, fatty acids, and vitamins that we get from meat naturally (some of which are particularly important for developing children). This is why vegetarians and vegans need to take supplements to stay healthy. By the same token, there are many vitamins and minerals we can only get from vegetables, which is why people who eat too much meat (or too much of one kind of meat) & not enough veggies are not healthy either. We're omnivores, so our system requires a balanced diet to be healthy.

True dat.

But since the supplements exist, we technically don't need the meat.

Since artificial insemination exists, we technically don't need sex, but where's the fun in that? This thread is making me hungry for a good pulled pork BBQ sammich.

The fact that some vegitarians will argue that humans eating meat is not natural, in spite of the fact that they have to take unnatural supplements if they don't eat meat (which naturally contains those essential nutrients) makes me laugh.

I'm alarmed that you don't know what a fallacy is. You're abusing them in your 'argument'.

Due to the way those supplements are made, they are not very effective unless you eat the real thing too, they are mostly for back up and not a replacement. Drinking a protein shake doesn't do shit unless you also intake a good amount of meat, and you have to mix up the meat as well so you can intake different species and types of animal fat(just like veggies), supplemtents does exactly what it's made to do which is to help but can't replace the real thing.

You really make bold unsubstantiated claims. You sound like the extreamist in the video. He really brainwashed you and planted those buzz words deep in your head

Provide me with a video of every cow who gets killed by the hands of a human

I'm sorry but I don't go to slaughter houses and take videos of the process... the people who do that are called PETA and they let you see what they want you to see
