    While PETA are ridiculous, I hope you were being facetious because that argument was even moreso.

    I agree, PETA are terrible. I dislike them completely.

    I am just saying that the argument "If we weren't supposed to eat animals, they wouldn't be so delicious" is completely ridiculous. We aren't "supposed" to do anything, as no one has the authority to say what the human race is "meant" to do, we give meaning to ourselves. One could as easily say "If we weren't supposed to rape people, sex wouldn't feel so good" or "If we weren't supposed to take heroin, it wouldn't be so addictive."

    The point is that what is natural is not right or wrong innately, and humanity is not "meant" for any overall purpose as there exists no one or thing who could give one to us. Consequently, saying we should eat animals because they are tasty is just confusing morality with hedonism.


    As I said though...I think Todd was probably being facetious with his comment.

    In regards to your non-facetious side though...when will Todd's Crap be making a comeback? I miss it dearly :lol:.

    Maggots can be used to treat infected areas, while not the most pleasant thought, it is a useful purpose. Once they turn into flies though, they are useless.

    And for those who don't understand the joke, Jeff Goldblum starred in the remake of "The Fly".

    More transparent governance by Obama.....

    ...or not.

    Yet, the 98 page report was rejected. :lol:

    This isnt Judge Sotomayor's backhanded affirmative action single paragraph ruling. This is a report that has the potential, if the Senate passes the cap and tax bill into law, to negatively affect every single citizen in this country. Meanwhile China will be overtaking us as the world economic power but at least the hippies and Al Gore fan-people will sleep good at night. :whistling

    This isnt even socialism anymore more.....this is the theft of the American way of life as we used to know it. I hate to say it but the last 25 years of the 20th century may have been the final good ones for the USA as we know it. *shrug*
