No I agree with you that it's bad, but we're too reliant on it, the way we are reliant on the oil industry, putting an insta ban on it would be a disaster.

It's difficult but IMO the only way you can get rid of factory farming is to promote organic farming, that would be a long going process. But with all the time, money and energy going into promoting alternative energy sources. I don't know why we're not doing the same thing when concerning our food.

Put more money into stemcell research! One day, we'll be able to have "real" meat factories where we grow beef on growth mediums in petri dishes.

A lot of veggie dopes piss and moan about genetic engineering, they're no worse than the christian nutjobs.

With the kind of technology we'll be developing we'll be able to feed a sh*tload of starving people around the world, and idiots are protesting on the scientifically baseless assumption that we're creating a race of evil mutant vegetables.

i understand you're joking but this issue has resolved itself into something where people are actually concerned about it. and well, it's just fucking stupid.

PETA has an incredibly fucked perception of what constitutes good judgment. they propose that it's wrong to breed and raise animals for human consumption, but as long as there isn't an organism behind the meat you're eating then it's okay? not only is this not in good logic but it puts a burden on our scientists and engineers to try and develop a way to play god in the name of "saving" animals.

there's about seven billion better reasons to pursue stem cell research. this endorsement by PETA is nothing but a flimsy proposal to accomplish something that is neither
1) within the limits of logical reasoning or
2) economically feasible.

i mean, when i first read about this i was immediately forced into recalling Harry Caray's hilarious rants.

I think to say PETA does more harm than good is a severe understatement.

They're a fascist group consisting almost entirely of f*cking idiots and douchebags.

i'm more concerned about the treatment of animals by the psychological field than slaughterhouses, primarily because the meat-packing industries serve a purpose, whereas the psycho-babble bullshit field has virtually no benefit to mankind.

You know what..

I think we (humans) are to freaking civil and selfless...

We (humans) are constantly trying to save trees, animals, oceans etc.. Honestly we should probably eat and be happy. We are constantly at war with each other and yet consume ourselves with the rights of cows/animals.. To me it all seems kind of silly.

We have bigger fish to fry, our brothers and sisters are over in afgan getting worse treatment than the fukin cows...

Human life is pain, we go through more than cows (physically and obviously mentally), in our lifetime. Cows don't have to try, they have it pretty friggin easy until we get hungry...

I know what they do I've seen the videos, but like I said, there cows.. They were put here for us to eat, and that's what we do, eat them... We don't even waste the hide, your shoes probably have some cow on them as well, Do you care about that?
