@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.

@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."

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

@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!
-
@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 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?

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