I'm afraid for vegetarians

You have a bunch of confused people running around claiming that they are eating healthy.  They don't what that you need meat to survive and it's the easiest most healthy way of getting your protein and iron.  It helps prevent diabetes and certain types of cancer.  What is wrong with these people and is their a way I can help them, help themselves?

It's their business if they don't want to eat meat, let them be.

You can form a group called MEATA.

Then shove your meat eating lifestyle on vegetarians.

people are free to choose what and what not they want to put in their bodies.   I only have a problem when people tell me what I should eat.   so if you want to help them, don't be a douche and stay the fuck out of their life.

oh ya? maybe i'll only eat ice berge lettuce.

We're fine, we live long healthy lives and have an average higher lifespan. We also have found other sources rich in both iron and protein, it's sweet that you care though.

Plants don't have enough protein though.  Meat is the only source of a complete protein. "

Keep my delicious obesity, colon cancer, and heart attacks away from those vegetarians!

I agree. Eating meat is natural and healthy. Vegetarianism is unnatural and unhealthy. But it's their prerogative, just let them get on with life.

Well, we'll live longer, so you can stop worrying, thanks.

We get by on healthier foods.Don't lose any sleep over us.

I'm not a vegetarian because I love animals. I'm one because I hate plants. Lol jk just always wanted to say that!

Actually you can live without meat, but you can't live without plants.

Animals are way too cute to eat, and the way they're bred just to be slaughtered is a disgusting process. Just thinking about eating meat is enough to make me feel sick. There's plenty of other ways to get the vitamins you need, and most people take in way more protein than what's actually needed anyway. It's really not that hard.

Okay, so here's what you do. Head over to a PETA rally, run up to someone with a rib-eye steak, yell "The power of steak compels you!" and slap them in the face with it until they convert.

Works like a charm every time.

this post has flame-wars written all over it

It's Vegans that don't get everything they need without supplement. Not vegetarians. If you want to be a dick about things you clearly know very little about and make stupid threads that are vaguely described and horrendously misinformed, then hey, you'll fit right in, welcome to the internet, douchebag.

Disclaimer: I'm not a vegetarian so there goes the knee-jerk response, and no, I don't agree that if someone wants to live a certain way and aren't damaging other peopl, you should attempt to force them around to your way of doing things. I believe that you should STFU.

Were someone shoving their vegetarian lifestyle in your face on the other hand, i'd justly suggest punching them, or at least verbally chewing them out, but that's not the case here, you're just wasting everybodies time with this thread, it's not even vaguely informed.

Hey someone please laugh at my joke! And the TC is acting kinda like a dick. "What is wrong with these people?" Not very nice....

actually vegetarians are very healthy people. my brother is vegan, he doesn't eat meat or dairy. there are a lot of alternatives to meat and dairy. he is very healthy person.

a lot of people that process meat are vegetarians because of seeing the animals die, the insides of the animal.

I don't know who annoys me more, the "omg cute little animals" vegetarians or the "we will live longer you're all idiots" vegetarians. Probably the latter, given that the first choice is just people who like cute little animals, and the others are arrogant fucktards with no idea what they're talking about.

All animals get their food from plants.

I respect vegetarians. Its a noble cause, even if its not going to stop all the animals from being slaughtered, it is respectable. Plus, some people just don't like meat. Now vegans, I think that's a little extreme, but hey, its their choice and their life. They can do what they want to. Who am I to judge?

They can get all the nutrients they need without eating meat.

Seems like this thread would be more at home on Engadget.

I don't give a crap about average lifespan or whatever other bullshit they spew. I don't want to live to 100 and I prefer a nice steak over some bland salad... Hell, even my salads contain meat.

MEEEEAAAAT.

well i say im vegetarian however if i was dropped in to the middle of a forest with nothing but animals and had the means lets just say we may need a revised food chain like this:

I respect their fortitude in sticking to it, but they are idiots, eating meat is a natural part of life on Earth, its how things have been done since life began, now its great to make a statement but it just makes life harder on the person, How do they feel about lions eating meat? Are they gonna make them eat Tofu too?

Also they are represented by PETA the most screwball, moronic excuse for an organization ever, they mock the very vegetarians they claim to be, fools
So i have trouble respecting them for that, if PETA went away i might be more open to vegetarianism (Is that a word?)

This is a very weird topic, why worry, they have survived for years without meat. Can't really understand it though, meat is just too awesome.

I don't care if they are vegetarian or not. Its their choice, but I always think on the back of my head they are going to die anyway and humans are meant to eat meat too.. but I certainly don't like the way they slaughtered and all that.

I don't tell other people how to live their lives, so be a vegetarian or a vegan or eat nothing but bacon for all I care. Just don't tell me I should do it too, or think you're better than me because or your dietary choices.

I really don't care what other people do or don't eat, but saying it's wrong to kill animals is kind of silly in my opinion. Do other animals not kill and eat other animals? Keeping in mind humans are just animals. It's natural of an omnivorous species to eat plants as well as animals is it not? By no means are humans herbivores, check out those pointy old fangs near the front of your mouth.

By all means eat what you want, I respect vegetarians and vegans for sticking to it for their own preference of not killing animals, but I believe it's incorrect to use the argument that killing animals for food is wrong.

Who said that vegetarians only eat plants? Diary products, grain products, all those things can be eaten by a vegetarian. 

" @FiestaUnicorn: True I suppose but I think our evolutionary path has probably shrunk down our fangs since the invention of utensils has really decimated our need for fangs, unless your a wing fanatic. We have to survive as a species as well, just because we have evolved past the point of needing to kill animals for food due to other available options, should we stop? We've gotten where we are through the consumption of meat to survive. Whether protein is available through other sources or not, what's wrong with continuing to eat the meat that's gotten us it all these years?  "

The wonders of supplements. I'd rather not do it that way, meat just tastes too damn good, but vegetarianism is the healthier way to live, even if it's because they are warier of what they eat due to the intensely minor risks (or so my friend says).
