    I was thinking last night, how pathetic and sad it is that people are, well, not only still eating meat (take it up with me in a pm, this is about the chickens, bitch:p. okay so maybe eatinng meat isnt sad and pathetic but it's a little poor of humanity, to not be living in caves but STILL eating like barbarians)
    Okay yeah back to the sad and pathetic:
    to eat chickens.... its so like, pathetic to kill a tiny little chicken for such a small amount of meat. Like like people starving in forests who eat bugs. I mena, chicken breasts are meaty, not really, but they're the thickest part.. but Still, to end a life for THAT much meat? dont you feel bad for killing(in the first place) but its not even WORTH it?
    I put this in random thoughts because its simply that, a random thought.. is it worthwhile to mass murder them for bits of meat? AND maybe its not, but no one stopped to think about it because everyone justs accepts eating chicken.
    do you think its worth wasting a small animal? Cows make more sense...

    Well, they have more meat on them when you load them up with hormones and force feed them through pipes... that justifies it, right? ;)

    I hear what your saying. I eat chicken and beef. I don't put too much thought into where/how my chicken or beef got on my plate. If I did I would probably never eat it.

    I am one of the many that don't help this cruelty.

    Maybe I will have pizza for dinner tonight.

    Yeah.. taking one life for lots of meat seems more logic than one life for little meat.. but: maybe cows are more intelligent than chickens and have a better understanding of what's going on? Plus they kinda have to live longer before they have an adult size compared to chickens, I think. So.. maybe it's not about the quantity, but more about the quality of the life you're taking? But than again, a lot of animals have a better intelligence than, let's say, people with severe downsyndrom. That's not really an argument though, since eating your own species is really unhealthy, for it can transfer diseases more easily.


    I'm glad that I'm a vegetarian so I don't have to deal with stuff like this anymore! Yeay!.. Hm.. but a cow has to give birth to a calf every half year to keep producing milk.. the calf becomes veil.. before in the end the mommy cow goes to the slaughterhouse.. so by using dairy products I'm kinda tributing about animals getting killed as well.. *sigh*..

    Ah well.. everyone has to deal with their own levels as to what is acceptable for them.. right?

    Actually, eating chicken cooked or raw is ok with me. It's my apples - I kicked Adam and Eve's asses out of paradise over a couple of apples. AND EVEN IF IT'S APPLE PIE IT'S WRONG. America is therefor doomed, while Hitler who was allergic to apples can enter heaven. Funny how life is...

    But beef is more fattening than chicken, and beleive it or not some people actually care how they look and how much they weigh. And if we didn't kill chickens wouldn't there be way too many of them running around everywhere?

    There's a chicken slaughter factory just a few miles from our house, and everyday we see several big trucks loaded with hundreds of chickens being taken down there to be killed. It really is sad, especially when you see a truck stopped somewhere and you get to see those chickens up close....they look terrified.

    We have several chickens around here, for eggs mostly. They're so goofy, it's too bad all of those mass-produced chickens never get to experience life.

    Don't ever eat possum.

    What difference is there, in terms of pathos, between chicken and other animals. One would think that cows (which are sacred animals to some humans, and have brains larger than a pea) would produce a greater degree of pathos than chickens. Is the animal being wasted? What other purpose (aside from producing eggs and being killed and eaten) could the modern chicken possibly serve? We bred them to be food. They aren't like birds in the wild, they are much less adapted to survive. Have you considered the effect on the ecosphere that turning all the chickens loose might have? If we stopped eating them and turned them loose, some other predator would eat them (probably to the point of extinction) and there would be half-eaten chicken carcasses all over the place - probably contributing to the spread of disease and the like, not to mention the smell.

    I believe that humans are innately carnivores. To not eat meat is unnatural. However, I do respect each person's right to choose and expect the same respect in return.

    If i want to eat chicken, well then, i shouldnt have anyone telling me differently, unless they want me to do the same thing to them, and throw chicken bones at them :D

    Why do vegetarians say shit without thinking? How can you say eating meat is like eating like a barbarian. Ive said this before, if we didnt kill animals we wouldnt be able to grow veggies for everyone in the world. The land would be so deprived of nutrients. You need to fertalize the land. Dont think a couple peices of cow shit are going to make enough fertalizer for a whole farm either. Im guessing you peta fanatics dont even like livestock to be raised. How are you suppose to fertalize it? By shitting on it like the mexicans do and getting hepititis. Either way that shit wont probably have to correct nutrients since all it would be is veggies, im sure to have a proper shit for fertalizing you should have some meat.

    Chickens arent smart animals. We are humans, we are the top of the food chain, we eat meat. Saying dont eat meat is like trying to stop sharks from eating other fish. They are carnivorous though really. Hmm think of an omnivore then thats non human, thats like telling it to stop eating the animals it has to eat to live.

    Meat is in a lot of peoples heritages too, do you want to tell them to stop living on traditions to make sure the cute fuzzy animals arent dead?
