Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Sentience is defined as the ability to feel, perceive, or to experience subjectivity. Unlike humans plants cannot feel, perceive, or experience subjectivity. Plants cannot decide for themselves because they do not have a brain, we can. I never stated the plants were lesser beings than us I...
Veganism is always relevant in nutrition since most of it IS nutrition.
While I do agree with the theory when I have I ever claimed to come up with it?
Me saying a government is corrupt is a form of yellow journalism or sensational writing to make the reader want to read this post. Secondly...
Greater labor costs that affect who? Big businesses or the consumers. If this were to happen and be accepted then more jobs would be available to pay for these foods, all of the farms that we have now that are being used to feed farm animals can easily be integrated to be organic once...
Ahh yes another hippie comment suggesting I make food cost less. You do realize that the same corporations that put antibiotics, and hormones into animals are the same ones that are causing these prices to go up. Oh the irony. While cows, chickens, and pigs may not be pets in your culture they...
Let me start off by addressing your logic saying that we can eat meat because it happens in nature. This is what's called the appeal to nature fallacy. Rape, murder, and theft all happen in nature does that mean we should make it acceptable in today's society? No. The reason why animals get...
It amazes me how much stupidity can arise from such a small and simple comment. First of all I don't care you put in your body and I don't care if billions of other people eat meat. But who am I? I am a concerned individual who cares for the well-being of other human beings and non-human beings...
You couldn't be more wrong, and your "proof" suggesting that our eyes in front of our head and not to the sides of our heads has to do with evolution a completely different subject. Back to the fact that you couldn't/cannot comprehend a high school textbook (which I'm suggesting due to your lack...
I wouldn't exactly call animals who've been injected with hormones and antibiotics "equal" to animals that have been raised on a farm naturally and aren't subjected to these horrific actions. I suggest you read the comment below.
Milk doesn't deplete calcium from our bones? I can't tell whether you're joking or being serious. In case you're serious here a few websites I suggest you read

Maybe I wasn't clear, but yes I am trying to say that meat is unhealthy. A 28 year Harvard research study stated that people who ate three ounces of red meat every day were about 13 percent more likely to die—often from heart disease or cancer—before the study ended than people who didn’t eat...
You couldn't careless what the drawbacks are? This just goes to show selfish and irresponsible you are. And if you spent 5 minutes with Google typing in "How can we feed the world without industrial farming" then you would be able to find an answer. Click here if you really don't want to Google...
