Question:
Direct quote from Sarah Palin’s new book: “If any vegans came over for dinner, I could whip them up a salad, then explain my philosophy on being a carnivore: If God had not intended for us to eat animals, how come He made them out of meat?”
^What do you think of this quote?^

I haven’t read the book. I saw this website on ThinkAtheist and I wanted to see opinions. The very fact that I didn’t kill myself should be proof enough that I DID NOT read the book…
Question:
Given that Vegans are against any kind of cruelty to animals, and some even extend it to condemning the ownership of pets, how do you live in your home knowing that animals were displaced from their homes in the development of the land?
GreatBuddha: Huts are homes, too. However, far fewer animals would be displaced if we just set up huts in open fields and gathered berries. So in the balance, huts win. And why else are people vegans? Enlighten me. It requires an awful lot of effort to make the vegan diet anywhere near as healthy as, say, a vegetarian diet that allows milk, eggs, and cheese. If it’s not concern for the animals, then what is it?
Question:
Im not trying to insult vegans, im just wondering why they refuse to eat animal products. If the animal does not get killed to collect it then why doo they object?
Question:
the communist atheist vegan terrorist democrats who are destroying our nation right now, from the top down? seriously like the whole fields of ethics and phl. of mind and epistemology and other completely useless ideas don’t matter when there are MUCH MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO TAKE CARE OF FIRST.

Question:
I’ve heard of raw vegans or raw foodists, and would like someone to explain this lifestyle.
Question:
I realise it has little to do with animal consumption but rather a healthy lifestyle. I’m a vegetarian and straight edge, just curious on your guys thoughts.
Shaif, I beg to differ. I think it’s a moral and lifestyle choice.
I am well aware of what straight edge means, thanks for your input but I believe your arguement is pointless.
If I am someone who is sXe and compare my health to someone who is an abuser or just a user of recreational drugs and alcohol then I am very likely to be healthier than them due to the damage those things do to your body.
Abstaining from letting those things have the potential to damage my body would surely make me a healthier person than if I were one of those mentioned right?
Yes. Oh yeah, I always thought it was pwned.
Shaif, you offer a good arguement. Thank you.
However I have a few points to make. I agree with you that people who drink, use drugs [for pain] or have casual sex in moderation still have the ability to be healthy. I did mention in my last post that ‘recreational drugs’ were the things which cause damage to your body. These are the drugs which do not occur naturally and therefore give you an artificial and only momentary feeling of relief. I never said anything about sex having a negative effect on the body. I actually believe it is a more loosley held value within the sXe community now as times have progressed. As for alcohol being good for the body, its the same arguement as saying eating meat every week is good for the body. There are other options. Yes this lifestyle choice seems to be dominated by moral issues. Generally I believe this abstinence from drugs and alcohol is beneficial to ones health as they are not using anything which may have the potential to damage their body
