@Turbo05Dodge: I have never said it is wrong to eat meat or hunt through out this entire conversation. All I am saying is, don't try to state that meat is required for life, because it isn't. Also, don't tell us you are somehow helping nature by killing animals. If you like hunting and eating meat than by all means, go for it. But at least state the real reason behind it. You like killing things and eating them. Not some sham, I need meat to live, I help nature survive, truth covering spin.

[mtecmire]

@Turbo05Dodge: With regards to the hunting, if your argument is that you and the rest of the hunting population are somehow doing nature a favor by helping keep down an animal population because without you these animals would be out of control and over populated, that is laughable. Humans destroy the habitat and food of a deer, making them starve, and then turn around and say "we keep them healthy through killing them, so their numbers don't get out of control."

[mtecmire]

@Turbo05Dodge When you point to one significantly small population that lives in extreme weather that doesn't make an argument for the other 6.999 billion people. Yes, Inuit populations need meat to survive because they cannot grow their own food NOT because their body can't run off of some other fuel source. If you will read what I am saying, YOU or ANYONE else in this planet do not HAVE to have meat to survive! Case closed, you can't find one scientific study that states otherwise.

[mtecmire]

@sjdss there are no research studies out there that say we NEED to eat meat. Yes we need amino acids which form complex proteins, but you do not need HIGH PROTEIN foods because you can get enough protein from eating small meals throughout the day. On top of that, your body can only process and use a small amount of protein at a time due to its chemical make-up. On top of that most people think they need lots of protein but really you only need 1 gram of protein per kg of body weight.

[Turbo05Dodge]

@mtecmire and man evolved to be omnivores in order to survive, which includes eating meat. Eating meat is still a needed commodity for many peoples in the world to survive. Our eating of animals is a part of the natural balance of life on this planet. The local hunters who take the appropriate number of deer as an example every year to eat are doing a good service. Unless its more humane that the over populated deer starve to death in the heavy winters?

[Turbo05Dodge]

@mtecmire Even my vegetarian sister who went to college for both Animal and Human medical studies laughs at people who think no humans should be eating meat.

[mtecmire]

@Turbo05Dodge I never said you should or should not eat meat but your statement of eating meat as a means to survive is incorrect. You do not HAVE to eat meat to survive! Plain and simple, there is no argument out there that states not eating meat will lead to less survival or a diminished life span. To state that hunters killing deer so that they "don't starve" is doing the planet or a deer a favor is rediculous. Humans assuming they know what's best for nature is laughable!

[Turbo05Dodge]

@mtecmire Tell the peoples who live in the arctic circle they don't need meat to survive.

[Turbo05Dodge]

@mtecmire It is a fact that where I live hunters cull the deer population to the point where its healthier. There are far less natural predators left to do so.....so the hunters take what is appropriate. They will starve in winter.

[1906Eddie]

damn, I haven't even heard the show yet but from these comment, I say that by evolution or design the human being's from the planet earth is an omnivorous being. I As a Native American, love and respect life, take only what is required with respect and nothing more. Plants, animals or otherwise.The crazy white man , Anglo Saxon values is the destruction of this nation but the planet. You fools need to get a clue.It was never a sin to eat meat it is about respect for life. The white man has none

[Gary1111001]

@1906Eddie I sense some racism. I don't play that, and you should know, racism's wrong.

...back to what's right...

Omni = includes meat

meat eaters have fangs for killing (and a bunch of other stuff - see herbivore/ omni chart - of which we have NONE)

It's black and white (wow...no pun was intended; just a CO-incidence)

[1906Eddie]

@1906Eddie I despise racist people, There is not a racist bone in my body friend. I was not referring to the color of ones skin but the color of their heart. The truth is the truth. What I said was true, you will never see a true native American murdering living spirits just to hang a trophy on a wall or destroy the planet he lives on for mere greed. I should have said the white man has a black heart to be more accurate and for the record the white man has always been the most racist of all

[dylandecrayk]

@1906Eddie Whatever Tonto

What is this music???

[Greenhornet270]

how do the casinos stay open in this depression?

[SidneyXda]

love the c2c music

[CelticBadBoyPoet7]

Vegetarians are Cool...But a Dude Should Never Forget to BEAT His MEAT.......

[GooglFascists]

Thumbs up if you thought the pic was Alex Trebek, (Jeopardy host). 

[Gary1111001]

You can tell a lot about a person by the way they act......and eat. Veg*s are a little less juvenile, and a lot less hostile.

Science has shown that - from head to toe - humans are suited to fruit and veggies, and in know way to meat (or grass). And just to beat a dead horse(figure of speech from a twisted society) We are not tigers; we are not cows; we are primates.

[elsol98]

@Gary1111001 Science has never shown your allegations.If anything science says the complete opposite.For example humans have canines and this is to facilitate the consumption of meat and there many other references.Humans are by definition omnivorous an not herbivorous.And the notion that one is highly spiritual because of what they eat is pure rubbish.You might think that you are better than the rest but you are only fooling yourself.

[Gary1111001]

@elsol98 I guess there's different definitions of omni. I'll go by design, and trust nature. The word "Canines" doesn't mean what you think; it's mis-used (by the public, not scientists). The canines are named after dogs' pointed teeth, but they are fangs. We don't have pointed sharp teeth. The 'canines' we have are also found in horses and monkeys (herbivores).

[mushymcsquishy]

god bless this man! and all the vegetarians out there.

[Mucky1little2me3]

Humans are natural carnivores but some people live in a parallel world where humans are herbivores apparently.

Don't eat meat if it you don't want, dress up as a cow and chew on some grass for all I care just don't preach how we should all do likewise.

[Gary1111001]

@Mucky1little2me3

Sad that you got 4 thumbs up considering:

* I mentioned that we aren't meant for grass. (you're using cows as a straw-man-argument) Cows are ruminants; humans are primates.

* U said Humans are carnivores, which means you and 4 people don't know that a carnivore is an animal that eats ONLY animals . . . no nuts, no fruit, no vegetables, no chips, fries or buns(think u can do it? lol)

[GutsuBerserk]

@Gary1111001 i agree

[PrivatePilot66]

Eating extra meat this week. Thanks for the inspiration.

[McPfoot]

@PrivatePilot66 Cunt.

[sjdss]

@PrivatePilot66 agreed! you sound like a man! not a liberal woman!

[GildaLee27]

Thank you so much for posting this! Once again I succumbed to sleep when someone really interesting was on C2C, so it's a gift to be able to hear it here.

Mr. SPT: you are awesome. Thanks again!

[Gary1111001]

The guest has received death threats from the meat and hunting industries. He said "You could tell a lot about a person by his enemies. I'm happy to have some of these people as my enemies."

The hunter who wears full-camouflage and face-paint (oh, and gun), shows that humans are not designed for meat.

[Gary1111001]

This is why Vegans are so...... passionate.

There's a great solution:  Plant diets = win, win, win.

What's good for animals and the environment usually benefits us too. And.... we happen to be primates, who are designed for a predominantly plant-food diet.....specifically, fruit-based. And you benefit in every way: energy, happiness, more money saved from med expenses, no worries.

Jay "the Juiceman" is an example of how a fruit and veg diet makes you fit, thin and healthy.

[sjdss]

@Gary1111001 your a fucking moron! people are omnivores! being a vegan! is ok! but NOT normal!

[Gary1111001]

@sjdss I'm going by physiology comparisons, not lifestyle or moronic belief systems(how about you?). ps - your un-civility says a lot about you.

People say we're 'Omni' because we CAN eat meat. Cows CAN....if you kill an animal for it, then stick it in their grain. But Cows ARE herbivores.

[sjdss]

@Gary1111001 regardless humans ONLY eating vegetables and fruits is NOT normal! our bodies need high amounts of proteins!

[Gary1111001]

@sjdss It's normal (without tools, humans could not eat any other way. We're primates) I know it goes against popular beliefs, but as a Coast listener, you should know popular beliefs are often wrong(our society is corrupted) "We need high protein" What makes u say that. Many experts say we don't. And these fruit-based athletes prove them right: Dr Graham, Harley Johnstone, - marathoner Grant Campbell - ultramarathoner Kathleen Leonard, Richard Gambino, Raw matt freelee, Pam Boteler,

[sjdss]

@Gary1111001 have no idea what you are talking about humans were CREATED as omnivores!

[Gary1111001]

@sjdss Seems you're Believing dogma and not backing it up with anything. While I'm Understanding history and biology and backing it up with logic.

Omni includes meat. But no part of humans anatomy is like that of a meat-eating animal - See chart "Omnivore, Herbivore"

You also didn't answer my question: "What makes u say that?"

[sjdss]

@Gary1111001 for every "study" you can cite I can find one that say we DO need to eat meat! or at least some kind of high protein food! MAN are omnivores if we werent we would not eat meat!

[Gary1111001]

@sjdss And notice I didn't cite any studies: they're usually corrupt or mis-used.

I don't need studies; I've got Living proof: There's millions of people and animals that never eat meat. They don't die. = proof we don't need meat. (in fact, they do great)

A lot of people eat grain; does that mean we're natural grain eaters? No (we have to mill and cook grain). For meat, we need a weapon or machine to kill it. . . . and laxatives to move it thru.

We're obvious fruit-eaters

[dylandecrayk]

@sjdss I don't know if you read the Bible, but it says meat is good to eat. Pork is not so good though.

[sjdss]

@dylandecrayk the pork thing was just for jewish people but of course eating meat is ok we are omnivores after all!

[dylandecrayk]

@sjdss Well yeah I know it was for Jewish people because they are the one's who were chosen to receive the laws. But the laws were made to help the Jewish people's health, ya know? They weren't arbitrary. Jews have the same bodies and digestive system as everyone else. The point I'm trying to make is that the reason God said not to eat pork is that it's bad for your body.

[dylandecrayk]

@dylandecrayk ...the point of God's laws are to help people because God wants what is good for us. For example, did you know that God instructed the Jews to circumsize their children on the eighth day after birth, and it wasn't until the 1900's that medical science figured out that the Vitamin K level in the babies' blood is at its highest on the 8th day making it the best day for the blood to clot. Pretty amazing, eh?

[1906Eddie]

@Gary1111001 Damn, you definitely watch too many infomercials. The Juice man cant save this polluted, , poisoned, timbered, raped, brainwashed, stripped and the driven into the extinction of our planet. Definitely not from the the servants of the forces behind the nothingness. I love everyone but hate evil and stupid people especially those who are stupid by choice.. Being born retarded or dropping out of school is one thing but being stupid by choice is another.

[nikomon]
