@Inox55 No Meat, dairy and gluten is why we are all sick and obese!!

[Inox55]

I think the bottom-line is trying to consume less (also portion control) and have a balance meal.

[clergame]

We need both meat and vegetables.

When God's Kingdom takes over ofwhich so many people pray for, and destroy manmade governments that cause us so many problems, and we go back to healthier eating, and not so much greed etc etc.

@PitcherIPA Too bad. You must be a faggot?

[PitcherIPA]

@madisonelectronic Way to raise the level of dialogue... asshole. Do you kiss your mama with those lips? Or does she go around calling people "faggot", too?

i support vegetarianism because,we are omnivores, eaters of meat and plant, but we are also the smartest known beings, therefore we have the capability to limit ourselves from hunting. its hard for me to believe that as smart as we think we are we are killing our way through earths existence simply because, "meat tastes better". the only reason im not vegetarian is that im 11 years old, i need protein to grow. but god i wish everyone was vegetarian. thumbs this up so everyone can see this!!
