I'm a vegetarian partly because of health issues, and partly because I don't like the idea that animals are being slaughtered just so we could eat them. I just don't want to be a part of that. Being a vegetarian is healthier (if you actually eat right, and not just junk food like a lot do), and also more cost efficient. It's a personal choice for me. If you want to eat meat, go right ahead. I don't care. I don't think it's right when vegetarians lecture or get mad and people who eat meat.
Holy shit....one of the multiple threads on vegetarianism and I didn't yet post the oh so fitting (yet not) lyrics....well, here it goes.
Heifer whines could be human cries
Closer comes the screaming knife
This beautiful creature must die
This beautiful creature must die
A death for no reason
And death for no reason is murder
And the flesh you so fancifully fry
Is not succulent, tasty or kind
Its death for no reason
And death for no reason is murder
And the calf that you carve with a smile
Is murder
And the turkey you festively slice
Is murder
Do you know how animals die ?
Kitchen aromas arent very homely
Its not comforting, cheery or kind
Its sizzling blood and the unholy stench
Of murder
Its not natural, normal or kind
The flesh you so fancifully fry
The meat in your mouth
As you savour the flavour
Of murder
No, no, no, its murder
No, no, no, its murder
Oh ... and who hears when animals cry ?
