I think that is what she means. I think she thinks vegans want animals to stop eating each other as well.

How can we vegans successfully leaflet carnivorous animals when the illiteracy rate amongst them is so alarmingly high?!?I think that is what she means. I think she thinks vegans want animals to stop eating each other as well.

My brother told me that. He said he was watching a nature documentary about lions killing and eating gazelles or something and it occurred to him that humans are carnivores also and are also meant to eat meat.

I'd like to see him take down a gazelle.My brother told me that. He said he was watching a nature documentary about lions killing and eating gazelles or something and it occurred to him that humans are carnivores also and are also meant to eat meat.
I was barbecuing at a friend's place, where she commented. "If it hadn't been for the beef, we had been vegetarians too". Since they ate vegetabiles at the side...
At a class I was in:
Woman: "Can I look at your teeth? No, you aren't a rabbit".
I replied: "Can I look at yours? No, you don't have fangs...".

At a lunch I got the usuall "you are what you eat" speach. Meaning I was a rabbit or something again. The person giving me this lession, was eathing a lot of junk food. So I replied
"So what are you then? Just a pile of junk?".

The thing about topics about dum-bassed things omnis say is that they never run out of ever more dum-bassed things that omnis come up with to fuel them.
Long time back I took to giving omnis "meat causes brain damage" as my #1 reason for being veg*an.
If it gets challenged (it ALWAYS gets challenged) you just ask for any reason NOT to be veg*an that provides no evidence of brain damage having occured.
You can't win, obviously. It's akin to arguing about colours with a person who knows everything there is to know about colours despite having been totaly blind from birth.

Woah. What the hell? I love that the author has the nerve to complain about manners halfway through explaining why they don't have the basic human decency to respect someone else's moral values...

I've had that one Sally ...
M'mum'n'dad: "God gave animals to us so we could eat them."
Me: "God, in all his omnipotent omniscient tender loving mercy, designed our food with an overwhelming desire NOT to be killed and the capacity to suffer ???"

That's because they will be rewarded in heaven for their suffering on Earth, is the standard answer. Or does that only apply to humans?

It only applies to humans Callie.
I would never point that out to anyone who employed that defence anyway.
That defence leads directly to a whole series of questions along the lines of;
"So everytime we pass up an opportunity to be a cause of suffering to others then we are actualy lessening their eternal reward in heaven?"
Just for fun, that kind of thing, though.
The only way to get anything out of an argument with a dum-bass being to take up the sword of dum-bassery and see how they like being on the recieving end of it.

Are there no comment sections? What an ******* is right, and one who never had my vegetable stock, **** you very much.
From the link:
" I know what some of you will be thinking right about now: “Why not just use vegetable stock?” I asked a very similar question of a Ferrari driver the other day. “Fine automobile connoisseur,” I said, “in place of golden-hued, high-grade gasoline, why not use a chunky sludge of rotting leaves and other decaying organic matter to fuel your luxury driving machine?” He, suffice it to say, was not interested in my suggested fuel alternative—which, come to think of it, sounds a lot like the liquefied compost heap marketed as “vegetable stock.” Plus, most dishes already contain fresh vegetables—where a real stock adds umami and a bit of thickening gelatin, weak vegetable broth offers little more than the unpleasant sense that the dirty water at the bottom of a salad spinner bowl was accidently spilled into the pot somewhere along the way. No thanks."
And
" While I realize that etiquette is on the wane at this late date, I maintain that it is very impolite to straight-up refuse something someone has taken the time to make for you (and the other, probably carnivorous people present) because of your personal preference. Doing so belies a valuing of the self over the collective, and the misapprehension that the host is your servant and not a generous peer taking time out of her schedule and money out of her wallet to feed you in good faith."
I value myself above collective omnis, **** you very much.

It's a bad cook that needs animal products to make a meal taste good.

One of those people who constantly uses pretentious language to make themselves sound better when in reality they're just stupid.
From an other forum.
I force my diet on people, since I only serve vegetrian dishes at my own place. Even though they are served without any speach about animals or nutriotion.
What happens if such people are invited to a muslim, and don't get any pigmeat? Perhaps feeling islam is forced on them?

Forum software will allow me to quote the same post twice though!
I first went vegetarian after experimenting with vegetarian cookery for a month, or so, many moons back.
Experimented with vegetarian cookery 'cos I was bored sh*tless with every meal being dominated by the taste'n'textures of the usual limited range of dead bodies.
Not actualy sure if vegan food is more interesting, per-se, or not though ...
It is fact, that all other things being equal, an omni cook will always have a few extra 'ingredients' that a vegan cook doesn't?
Damn sure, though, that the advantage of vegan cooking is that without the dubious delights of death'n'decay dominating the dish (illiteration!) you can actualy taste the myriad of other flavours in whatever it is you are eating.
