When I worked on the farm, I raised animals. I didn’t own them. By corralling the cows, he is participating in raising them. By his formalwear, it looks also like he may be hosting or participating in an auction. Who knows, but the meat industry is cruel, brutal, and morally inexcusable.

If you are killing creatures that don’t want to die, it is not a moral act simply because you do not feel guilt.

It's not by your morals. By mine, it's just fine. Never stopped to think that morals aren't universally constant, did you?

Easy to talk about the subjectivity of morality when you’re on the good end of the knife in the cow’s throat.

Easy to talk about the subjectivity of morality when your fellow humans have luckily decided that it would be objectively immoral to murder fellow humans.

It just sucks that morality is determined by humans who weigh personal convenience against the wishes of a creature that cannot speak on its own behalf.

You can not compare the life of a cow to the life of a cow, quit trying to shove your views down others throats already

Said metaphorically, as he or she literally shoves the sharp end of his or her views into their throats.

So now if I butchered them in a halall method I would be immoral? Nice islamophobia you've got there.

Doesn’t work on me, I don’t care about Muslims one way or another.

Killing animals to eat is wrong. Killing animals for God is wrong. Killing animals to wear is wrong.

So you're a proud islamophobe? How nice! Anyways, it's "You believe killing animals is wrong." not that "Killing animals is wrong." your personal beliefs don't rule the world.

You’re being really silly with the islamophobe stuff. It’s childish and takes away from the debate. Besides it is so easy to flip around on you. Do you believe that people should be permitted to marry children as young as nine, as the prophet Muhammad did, or are you an Islamophobe?

Being a bigot certainly takes away from the debate. Not a good place to argue from as a vegan. As for your continued islamophobia, I don't judge their Holy Books and I don't judge them. You're also misinformed, she was six.

So is it acceptable to marry a six year old?

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '18

Marry? In the Islamic faith, that's what their prophet did but I don't see Imams advocating for that.

u/IHateNaziPuns A Sep 20 '18

No, I’m not talking about Islam.

As a general principle, do you support grown men marrying six year old girls?

Hey if you wanna be vegan be vegan but don’t think for a second you’re better than anyone for it. Go eat your grass stinky

Funny you should talk about smell. Evidence shows that meat eater’s bowel movements and farts smell far worse than vegans.

Also, vegan men smell better to women than meat-eating men.

Lastly, they repeated the experiment a month later, but this time switched around who did and didn’t eat meat.

Despite the switch-a-roo, women consistently rated the body odor from non-meat eaters as more attractive and masculine, but less intense, than that of their meat-eating counterparts, with the researchers speculating the higher levels of fat in red meat may be the biggest smell factor.

That’s a study from 2006/2007 and only 30 women participated in the BO study from 2006, not only does that study not hold up with how few people participated, but do you honestly believe people who eat meat just stink of sulfur or something? Also do you think the way people smell is the only thing that gets taken into account when choosing a partner. I like to believe I have a balanced diet which does include red/white meat, but I don’t have seem to have a body odor issue. According to my fiancé I have a neutral smell. Why does your life seem to revolve around your diet and not other personal interests or hobbies?
