You see, its an overpopulated world, but you see, meateating is truly a major problem as well.I mean , people who do without it are happy so why do the others eat it?

perhaps we should become cannibals,solve all the problems.

"Flesh eating is simply immoral, as it involves the performance of an act which is contrary to moral feeling: killing. By killing, man suppresses in himself, unnecessarily, the highest spiritual capacity,that of sympathy and pity towards living creatures like himself and by violating his own feelings becomes cruel." "As long as there are slaughterhouses, there will be battlefields." -Leo Tolstoy

think globally and act locally. keeping youself and family healthy is your only responsibility and incoincidentally good for others too.

its important to teach people how to help themselves and one should do so when possible, but there are certain types of people who are and always will be a pariah. teach those who are willing to be taught and don't bother with the ones who aren't. They can only bring you down and then you're part of the problem.

this is the off topic forum but within a reggae site so just to make a point wasn't Peter Tosh killed trying to help someone who I've described above?

Good points bad brains, you see, killing is bad for a person and this includes meat and meat is murder as the Smiths correctly said.Hail The Smiths.

i had a smiths phase sean and may i gladly say those days are long gone.

i assumed the topic was capitalism's effect on 3rd world nations. my last post i know see is kinda irrevalant to the whole meat eating debate. oops.

yes, capitalism causes all the worlds problems be they majority world or otherwise.Smiths comment was a bit tongue in cheek but meat is murder

This is a profound statement, one of the most intelligent I have ever heard on the subject. It should be read by everyone who eats meat.
