RE: Brett Keane on vegetarianism and plants

A quick response out of frustration to a video made by Brett Keane where he showed a clip of a pseudo-scientist claiming that platns feel...everybody that believes this sort of stuff, please visit the skeptic dictionary and get informed about such nonsense:

And if pseudo-science is your only defense against vegetarianism/veganism, then go veg now! If not, try to explain why plants feel to me in a coherent and scientific manner. I look forward to it...

This debate between Inmendham and Brett Keane is just...depressing really. It is clear to me that Inmendham is 100 %right here, but still people will argue about it. You can just as well argue about the existence of unicorns.

@THADI0US Sure, humans can live on an all plant diet. Im not programmed that way. I eat meat, as well as I eat an abundance of other things to maintain my diet. Im not evil for doing what is genetically programmed into my DNA. I dont dictate to those that dont eat meat, I just have a problem with people dictating to me what I choose and choose not to put in my body. Of all things on the planet to bitch about, people in first world countries complain of the most frivolous.

@AtheistWithRage Yes your survival but does your survival depend on exploiting animals? No it doesn't in this day and age we don't have to depend on killing animals, we can live of plants, it's even beneficial to them since we would be fertilizing their seeds, and even if you choose to not eat the seeds we can just plant them ourselves, you see nothing should die for your taste buds.

Yeah, I know, I couldnt come up with any good answers either. lol.

global solution? :D

[AtheistWithRage]

Ok, what do you feel would be the best solution? On a global scale.

[AtheistWithRage]

I answered his questions honestly. Why would I need to bullshit. Again, you call me a dumbfuck and an idiot, because why? I dont follow your ideals? I eat meat? I can have a response to every little petty attack you seem to throw at me? Keep them coming cupcake, I can do this for a long time.

Wow, second year at a university. Good for you! And you know alot more than me, how?

Because you can regurgitate information that is already being fed to you? Could you form your own opinions if you dont attend a university?

I think you should take more english courses, seems you are getting ripped off without being able to put together a proper sentence construct.

"I'm in university " Ok, Hadji.

I erased the convo on my profile because your spam was nothing but nonsense. You simplym tried to wind me up, without saying anything valid.

[hippydude89]

you didn't even answer hypnos' questions properly. Alot of things society does is wrong. Just because society approves of something it is proven right? if you think that you are retarded. I feel sorry for your kids, they have no chance if their father is such a blumbering, pompous idiot.

[hippydude89]

this isn't the benefit of your survival though, it's because your fat ass likes the taste. And don't try an patronise me, I'm in university on my second year of studying earth sciences, so I know alot damn more than you do.
