[QUOTE]Other animals eat their meat raw. Human bodies cannot digest and process raw flesh (with the exception of fish) without getting sick. If nature had intended for us to eat meat, then out bodies would be able to eat it raw. And for the thousands of years we've been eating meat as a civilization, it's funny how our bodies still sometimes reject it.[QUOTE]
Thats why we have a highly evolved brain, so that we can cook the meat... thats what seperates us from the animals, well that, and the fact that we aren't of vaccum cleaners.

dag....this thread is kind of harsh. all i did was try to get some people opinion. Maybe one of you guys went through this phase and might be able to explain it. But instead, i got people saying that i maybe gay and im a fool. i always thought this forum was full of understanding people. If i ever open up in this forum again, then i am a fool and gay. peace out..............Jesda wrote:This thread is stupid.
1) Kid pukes when he sees ol' Bessie on his plate.
2) Kid asks if he can find a way to force himself to eat something that makes him sick.
3) Vegetarians and omnivores chime in and mostly miss the point: some fool is trying to eat something that makes him puke -- WHY?

for those of you who gave me some good input.....thank-you
Re: (180crafter)
either way.. your an assclown for calling him gay just because he has a concern about his diet..180crafter wrote:

No.. Your mistake is that you dont look at the real problem. He is not concerned about his diet. He is concerned about his mental/sexual health. It is front, a cover, for what he is really feeling. Jesda knows what I mean.Anand wrote:either way.. your an assclown for calling him gay just because he has a concern about his diet..
I mean, he asked if there was anything he could do to trick his brain into being better. He needs a counselor, and I am not one...
Im too busy being an assclown.

okay....i'll admit it, i was dumb and stupid for posting this thread. I just realized a car forum is not a place i should be posting this kind of subject.
Re: (Mr1der)
so if i kill another human i can eat it?Mr1der wrote:Prigo's right...
if you can kill it, you can eat it.
if not, well, there's plenty of healthy alternatives for the proteins found in meats...
and Rick's not an assclown, he's just Cuban and doesn't fully grasp english...hell, probably can't even fully grasp himself if you know what I mean...

Re: (w1ngzer0)
well, I reckon so...probably shouldn't do that if you kill in self defense though...the courts may look down on it...probably shouldn't ask for the head of the body to mount on the wall either...w1ngzer0 wrote:

Psst. Not trying to rag on the guy, just saying, do your homework. I've had both vegan and vegetarian friends, just MAKE SURE you're getting all the right vitamins and minerals regardless of what you choose to eat. Oh and Vick, I eat all my meat but chicken rawish hahaha. No offense, but I can't stand cooked beefs, just a little browning around the edges, red and purple in the middle is a treat =D Still though, sushi/rice rocks the beef dishes.
Wow. No offense but being a Veggie is really a bad habit. You need a balence of foods between greens and reds. They raise anaimals to be killed for food. Its all in the food chain. Without eating meat, you aren't REALLY eating healthy. I couldn't go a day without meat. A matter of fact, I am eating a meat ball sandwich right now..
Re: (GEO)
My girlfriend was a "forced vegetarian" by her parents, the "Food Nazis". They're the only people I know that only allow Tofurkey to be served at Thanksgiving. If you don't know what that is, you're lucky. She eats meat now, but just read this and learn that Vegetarianism, while healthy if done responsibly, isn't a cure-all for a healthy diet.
"According to John Vanderveen, PH.D., director of the FDA’s office of Plant and Dairy Foods and Beverages, "the more you restrict your diet, the more difficult it is to get the nutrients you need"
Vegetarians who exclude all dairy andanimal flesh products face the greatest nutritional risks, because some essential nutrients exist only in animal products http://www.glyphmedia.com/host/darklight/Vege.htm.
Vegans face the risk of inadequate vitamin and mineral levels. Vitamin B12 deficiencies are found in vegans, and this deficiency can lead to irreversible nerve deterioration (5). The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition concluded in 1988 that elderly people should be especially careful when adapting vegetarian diets, because their bodies may absorb vitamin B12 poorly http://www.fda.gov./bbs/topics....html. Vegans and ovo-vegetarians (those who eat eggs but no meat or dairy products) may have low vitamin D and calcium intake. Lack of vitamin D can cause rickets in children, and lack of calcium can lead to osteoporosis later in life. These vegetarians are also at risk for iron-deficiency anemia, not only from exclusion of animal products, but also because of the high dietary fiber content of foods such as soy protein, bran, and fiber. The dietary fiber in these foods actually inhibits iron absorption. Protein deficiency must also be guarded against, which can lead to loss of hair and muscle mass, along with abnormal accumulation of fluid. Care must be taken to ensure proper caloric intake for all vegetarians http://www.fda.gov./bbs/topics....html.
Barr, Prior, Janelle, and Lentle (1998) have examined the association of vegetarian diets with spinal bone mineral density. The study used a cross-sectional comparison method of bone mineral density of 23 vegetarians and 22 non-vegetarians, all premenopausal. The subjects were between the ages of 20 and 40, and had normal body weights and menstrual cycles. Twenty of the women participated in repeat measurements 13 months later. Methods used to make comparisons include descriptive statistics, independent samples and paired tests, 1-way analysis of variance, correlation analysis, and stepwise multiple regression. Results showed vegetarians having a lower mean bone mineral density, 1.148 versus 1.216 for non-vegetarians. Vitamin B-12 and body fat were factors used in predicting baseline bone mineral density. Participants in the follow-up study differed only by being slightly older. In one year, mean bone mineral density increased by 1.1% in the diet group, non-vegetarian’s bone mineral density increased, while vegetarians stayed the same. No other monitered variables affected bone mineral density. Conclusions from the study state that vegetarian women should be aware of the association of low bone mineral density with a vegetarian diet.
Children with vegetarian diets face additional risks and health concerns. Gretchen Hill, Ph.D., associate professor of food science and human nutrition at the University of Missouri, Columbia, believes that many health problems arise among child vegetarians. "My bet is those kids will have health problems when they reach 40, 50, or 60 years of age", she says, mostly because of imbalances with micronutrients [nutrients required only in small amounts], particularly iron, zinc, and copper. Hill believes that while vegetarian children will be missing iron from animal products, the most valuable vitamins may be copper and zinc. Copper is essential to the human body in that it builds the bodies immune system, and strengthens and builds red blood cells. A lot of Americans are marginal in this micronutrient, and as a result, are more susceptible to diseases. Children can’t meet their zinc needs without eating meat. Children are also at risk of developing protein defeciency, which can lead to stunted growth http://www.fda.gov./bbs/topics....html. "
