I have never eaten any sort of meat in my life..

Jesda.. really, you can eat meat all you want... all you people can eat whatever you want...

Just because we are vegitarians doesn't make it such a bad thing..

Sadam eats meat... so what, are you the same as him now?

how ludecrous are your coments and your dumb picture about vegitarians

anyways.. it's late.. I haven't read all the coments on this yet... but I will tommorow and I will respond to them all..

I had this thread about vegitarians like 2 years ago and I think I was the only one on the boards who was a veg back then.. and I help all of them off!!

in anycase... good night and hopefully this thread does not get shut down before I can say what I have to say...

And how unfortunate is it that you are responding to a glaringly obvious joke about dietary preferences like it was an attack on one's religion or race? Perhaps if you took the time to actually read all of the comments, you would have discerned that it was in fact a brief -joke- and that I did say "eat what you like."

If there is one problem with vegetarianism, its that it has become a personal ideology as opposed a set of eating habits.It is only the way you eat, -not who you are-! I dont care what you put in your mouth, but if I joke with you, poke fun at it, etc, then try to laugh. For crying out loud, you only live once.

Its like someone insulting my car and me responding by murdering their mother. A grip on reality helps to keep things in perspective. Choose your battles wisely. If there was a Christian creator, do you think God would care if you ate chicken or broccoli when the day of judgement came? Interestingly, Chris Rock had a routine about it food and religion...

Let me repeat... I DONT CARE WHAT YOU EAT. And if someone makes a sarcastic joke about it, try and relax?

Why are vegetarians so sensitive about food? Its not a damn lifestyle, its a simple omission of ingredients. No different from the lactose intolerant avoiding dairy. If someone told me meat was for savages and made some kind of humorous joke about it, I would be inclined to laugh. I fail to see how anyone could possibly be -offended- over diet! Its absolutely ridiculous! On the list of things that are of importance to me: friends, family, career, education, etc etc etc... the choice between tofu and chicken is somewhere at the bottom.

At the end of the day, the supermarket still makes a buck.

From my experience, eating only vegetables is not better for you than eating a mix of meats and plants. If you have to take vitamins in order to stay healthy your diet is incomplete. Vitamins aren't a natural food (even those "All natural" pieces of crap). This is only my opinion. I love meat and eat it all the time. I also eat vegetables and fruits because I enjoy some of those too. I never take any vitamins, rarely get sick, and am in decent shape. Plus I'm not a stuck and whining about how other people live. You don't want to save the cows, so don't pass that as an argument for vegetarianism. You can bet that if they thought we tasted good and they could take us out we'd be on their menu. Lions, tigers, hyenas, other wild animals eat humans when available. We are omnivores, always have been and always will be. You can eat one thing more than the other if you like but to say that we shouldn't eat the other is bullhuckey. It's how we've evolved, and I don't anticipate the move to vegetarianism until we kill off all the animals on the planet. You can continue to live your way, just don't present these made up "facts" (there have been plenty of studies done that refute that meat is bad for you. Excessive consumtion of fatty meats can lead to heart failure, but that is unrelated to a healthy, meaty diet) or act like we are inhuman for eating meat.

I take offense that you don't understand or listen other people's opinons on this and are unwilling to listen to it or take the jokes you are asking for by starting this thread. Simple fact, if you post something that is a matter of opinion, you will have people who disagree with you reply whether their argument is justified or an attack on you or a joke. Deal with it.Sorry to put things so bluntly, but people need to lighten up. (probably myself included after that)/rant
Three points:

1. When I argue religion and politics I get pissed when people blatantly insult my views by making dumb comments but have no intelligent arguments. Such is the case here. "Vegetarians are dumb" "Mmmm, meat" "Save a cow, eat a vegetarian" and endless other comments. If you want to argue with me about nutrition (or potential lack thereof) then so be it. State your argument and I won't be insulted. It's those dumb insults and jokes that I take offense to. It's like going up to a priest and saying "Christianity is DUMB, let's kill all Christians or convert them into atheists". What kind of reaction fo you think you're going to get?

2. NEVER NEVER NEVER have I ever tried to force anyone else into being a vegetarian. I don't even mention it unless asked. I stated my reasons for becoming one in response to a question posed by SmithSR. Don't agree with my reply? Most don't, hence the reason why you are still meat eaters. I've never said, OMG you kill cows, we can't be friends anymore. I STILL cook meat for my friends when we get together for our weekly dinners, I just choose not to eat it because I get sketched out. Does this warrant fvcking insults in every other reply to a thread simply soliciting good and easy recipes? I don't think so.

3. I listen to intelligent opinions. And I am all about jokes. But when my thread just gets turned to **** due to some people's deliberate and repeated flames and insults, then I start to take offense. Oh, and hypocracy much? You're offended because I'm offended that people are being offensive?

Whatever, this thread is fvcking retarded so if any mod wants to lock or delete it then have at it. Now I know why Soph doesn't even post here anymore. Close minded people need to be caged.

Two words for the vegetarians....No. make that three.

Get over yourself...

Biologically human beings are an omnivore. This means, pretty much, that they are designed by nature to eat anything that doesn't eat them first.

Don't use your PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY to try to make up facts.

Fact: Humans have both pointy "flesh tearing" teeth and flat "vegetable matter chewing" teeth.

Fact: In nature, all predators have forward facing eyes and all prey have side facing eyes. This is because prey have a wider visual range in order to see predators coming. This is by design and animals evolved this way.

Fact: The enzymes that the human body uses to break down food are designed to break down both animal and plant matter.

Fact: There are proteins, vitamins, and minterals that are only available in meat substances unless you take vitamin suppliments.

Now get off of your high horse and don'ttry to make us meat eaters out to be bad people because we CHOOSE to eat meat just as you CHOOSE to onlyeat vegetables.

You guys are just as bad as those PETA freaks.

1. There you go again comparing a dietary preference to religion. Eat whatever the heck you want. You can JOKE ABOUT FOOD! Hell, you can even joke about politics. On the ladder of issues that matter to most people, I promise you, food is somewhere at the bottom along with whether to drink Coke or Pepsi, how to style your hair, whether to upgrade to HBO on your satellite service, and whether to get the frappucino or the latte at Starbucks.If you want to make an issue out of something, try something of greater impacct.

2. Once again, you are overreacting in an unnecessary way. You have moved dietary preferences into a protected higher level reserved for race and religion. What you eat does not and will never fall under that category... unless you become an orthodox jew and someone starts leaving pork chops under your pillow at night. Actually, a pork chop fairy would be kind of neat.

3. I'm not giving an opinion nor even ATTEMPTING to make an intelligent argument. It is a non-issue to me. I am ignorant on the issue and being -entirely- sarcastic! What part of "Hitler was a vegetarian" even remotely implies that I'm giving a serious opinion? If you have an issue with what someone else has said, perhaps you should also tell -them- to "G.F.Y."

Try to get offended over something of greater impact. Lets see... women are abused every day -- that should get you started. Oh yeah, remember that recent terrorlst attack in Russia where a hundred children were stabbed or blown up? Put that in your mind. That'll give you some perspective.

And this is the part where I leave for school.

hahaha...

hahaha...

yes, you can joke about food, you can joke about anything you want

but you should know when to stop when someone is trying to tell you to stop.

I can careless to what people say about meat and all...

face it... you like to go mmmm...meat.... mmmm.. cow... in front of vegitarians..

Infact.. all the people who eat meat do... it's not that we are high strung, if you really knew me, you would know that I don't get bothered by much at all...

I hate this internet thuggin and battles.. Jesda you act like mightier than thou right now..

I've seen plenty of times... or should I say most of the times when you poke fun at peoples and it's cool but then when they retaliate, you start to regress to your childhood and start calling them names..

ON this whole Vegitarian thing... no one is telling you that you should eat this or that.

If you look.. Vicki, merely started a thread about Veg recipies.. and then we have you peoples who come in and say,....mmmm... damn vegitarians... mmm...meat.... eat a cow... kill a vegitarian..

did you once stop and think that your little poster about Hitler just *might* be a little offensive to someone here???

no... because it's a joke...right? yup...

and as far as humans being omnivore and stuff... there are debates on both sides of the story... I can tell you to compare our intestine/stomach with one of a herbevore and carnivor animals and you will quickly see the similareties and differences..

you can compare the jaws of us humans and same of animals and you will once again see the similarities..

For me, being a vegitarian, stems from my religious belifes!!!

I was born a Hindu, I still practice Hinduism...

Oh and BTW, the cow IS considered sacrad in my country... yea..BUT, I can careless of what people say and eat.

you are telling me to pick your battles... well, you should have though of it before you started crappin all over this thread.

are you serious with that!?!?!

High horse???

can you please point out where in any of my coments did I try to portray that Vegitarians were any better than Carnivors or Omivores???

Yes, I coose to not eat meat.... and almost ALL of my friends eat meat... hmm... do I care... NO... do they care if I don't eat meat... NO...

Jesda is right in one way, a lot of people don't really give a damn abotu who you eat and not eat.. neither do I.

and how are we just as bad as the PETA freaks... oh and there is nothing wrong abou them.. yea the are nuts in their cause..

but come on now.. you can't tell me that you don't want to look at all those hot chicks bare it all for PETA!!

Food is NOT a serious matter. Once you realize this, getting offended about a joke won't be an issue.

Sometimes I feel that people need pain in their lives to understand what matters and what doesn't. And sometimes despite that, some fail to gain the perspective necessary to prioritize their values.

Now where's my damn pork chop fairy!

ocontraire.... anything can be a serious matter...

depending on their beliefs and their priority..

Like I said, I started out to be a vegitarian because of my religion.. so yea, it is a big issue to me...

and the Hitler thing had More to it than just the food part... That was out of line... however you want to put it or try to claim any other...

"Wahhhhhhh! My water's wet!"

You drive down the street and see a Burger King on every corner and bloody meat racks at the grocery store. Are you going to pick a fight with the butcher? Oh crap, not the Food Network! Rachel Ray is cooking another steak!

My grandfather was from India, and he also had the same dietary restrictions. So what is your point? Others have made serious comments about it, but I have not.

And at the end of the day, you still cant take a joke. Not ONE person commented on your religion or brought up Hinduism. You brought it into this discussion to paint yourself as a victim of religious discrimination, when the discussion never at any point made religion an issue.

No one called you Hitler. Not in a serious context -- NOT EVEN REMOTELY. Do you _seriously_ think I say to my vegetarian friends "Hey, whats the deal with you and the jews?" Come ON man, get over yourself -- none of this discussion was about you or your religious beliefs. You want to be the victim!

And that horse is riding high -- giddy up.

My friend, if you choose to let your emotions be at the whim of someone's humor, then it is your issue and your problem. I wish you the best of luck in handling it.

I conveyed my points effectively, so I'm calling it quits for the veggie thread. Have a good meal!

nice one Jesda... real nice..

you show your true wit.

As I stated many many times before. I can care less of what people eat.. I can care less of how many Mc Donanlds I pass or Burger Kings or anything..

As a matter of fact... I can BBQ chicken like no other... <~ how do yu say when I don't even eat meat!?!?!? you don't have to eat it to be a good cook

I can care less of what you say...

I brought up my religion because I wanted to make a point not to make my self a victim..

I am no victim here. I am merely trying to show you that you and some of the others made this thread in to utter stupidity... with your dry humor and so called witty coments.

I don't know you.. for all I know you probably do go up to your veg friends and say that!?!?

No one called me a Hitler but then again a poster that you have on your site did include all vegitarians in the same category..

SO what that your grandfather was Indian... again... no relevency about that.

The point of me talking about my religious again was not to make myself the victim or on any high horse but to throw in a different perspective on what people have been saying..

it's to open your minds and maybe realize of what you should say and what you shouldn't say

what's this all about.

peace people peace!!!

whatever people wanna be is their business, as long as they dont impose that on me or force me into one of them, it's all good.

so back to topic. Vicki. just make a veggie fried rice if u dont have lots of time but still want a good meal.

when u do have time, stock up on firm tofu, veggies of ur choice, slice them, dice them up and put in freezer. so whenever u need to make fried rice, u dont need to chop up veggies.

so make like a tofu, corn, carrot, mushroom fried rice or whatever veggie u want, put a big of soy sauce, voila, great meal.

i like alot of veggies, especially green beans, i buy fresh green beans and just cut them in half, stirfry them with a little bit of salf and garlic... um.yum

You hear that? That's the sound of no one giving a ****.

i have three words for you, make that four: GROW THE f*** UP!

i came into this thread expecting to find some veggie recipes i can cook up for the wifey and see maybe two recipes sandwiched between all the lame, contrived, unoriginal jokes.

Next to a bear, i'm probaby the biggest land-walking carnivore around but if a woman clearly states it's something she feels strongly about, can't you just let it be? Have no fear, there's plenty of other threads for you guys to f*** up and antagonize people.

Jesda, you go around patrolling the boards looking to get under peoples' skin. My man, the little lady made it painfully clear this is something that means a lot to her, IT DOES NOT PERTAIN TO YOU NOR DOES IT HAVE TO MAKE SENSE TO YOU! My daughter is freakishly-obsessive about her doll and watch collection and as a parent that worries me, but I'M NOT GOING TO MOCK HER ABOUT IT! If you can't be man enough to grow out of childish tendency to have the last word and actually get a rise out of shooting down what others care about for the sake of being a troll then you don't realize how pathetic you're making yourself out to be, with all your self-indulgent, masturbatory regurgitation you've got to be the most pathetic human being in our midst.

And for the rest of you out there with the name-calling and hurling insults, I DARE YOU TO FIND ONE FVCKING EXAMPLE of the threadstarter specifically insulting meat-eaters. IF you didn't gloss over her posts you'd realize she only stated why SHE is a vegetarian and that she had NEVER tried to cram vegetarianism down anyone elses' throats. She was just soliciting recipes, I think that's a fair request don't you? But it looks like all she's had to do is endure stupidahss jokes and defend her position.

What a bunch of hypocrits, someone offers sound reasons [research fVcking shows vegetarians have a much lower rate of cancer than meat-eaters] why they become vegetarians and you all get butt-hurt as if someone actually insulted your own dietary habits and YOU guys end up imposing your own anemically-supported beliefs down their throats. I eat meat too but ****, if its something the woman believes in, LET IT BE.

Instead of recipes, I see some ugly, ewok-looking carnivore in Jesda's sig scarfing down some flesh. That alone makes me want to be a vegetarian. I'm embarassed a thread like this exists and I were a moderator here, I'd ban some of your ahsses.......
