Penn and Teller - P.E.T.A. (Full Episode)

I don't believe in extremes. You don't have to be a vegan in order to believe in some form of animal rights, within the bounds of reason. I use my logic to determine where I think policy with regards to animals should be changed or revisited, its NOT an all-or-nothing debate.
There is one thing that I indiscriminately hate: hypocrisy. And that's why I think that this is a great episode.

Before you ask me what I think is moral or immoral about the whole meat eating issue (despite the fact that this episode is really not about vegetarianism at all) please see if your question is answered in my blog post on the subject first:

For the rebuttal from the person that prompted the blogpost to be written and thus an explanation as to why I have decided to move on unless a new thread of discussion is opened, please see

Thanks a million everyone, and do try to enjoy the show :)

And I ask for the source because you are making the claim..and thus must provide facts to back them up.

Such is the way of debates

[pangexp]

Your jobs mean nothing..and asserting that they do is a red herring fallacy.

And search what exactly?

If you could send me links to them..that would be lovely. I'm hoping they have actual facts to back them up and not speculations and assumptions?

I've read the nutrition value facts of such pills..and the amounts they hold can be pretty hefty.

And tell me how taking pills to achieve the nutrition is more natural than eating meat?

I have 3 jobs my friend. I work at my local gym as a trainer and nutritionist. I really do not care if you believe that, it doesn't make me suddenly not what I do in my real life. The story of homo erectus can be found by a awesome device called Google. It will provide you many legitimate links to said information. I cannot post links here or it will not appear. I can DM you some if you wish to actually ready them. As far as problematic, one vitamin a day. 1 pill. That's it.

We are a all products of nature, therefore all that is happening is natural.

I may not like it, but that a natural response.

There is no one more angry or militant then a vegan ... don't believe me ? disagree with one.

[Zodgod5]

Your fancy internet credentials don't stand up to my sheer aparthy about "nature". Good day sir.

On a previous comment to another user I listed off nutrition that a vegan misses out on by not eating meat. Albeit, I admit that such nutrition can be made up for with supplements...but doing so could be very problematic.

That's how meat eating went down? Really..I'd love to see a source on that.

You are a professional trainer? Nice Appeal to Accomplishment fallacy

[AerialGreaseMonkey]

Oh You... If you keep talking like that, you're going to make me want a steak... ;D

Nature does not have intention, it is not a conscious being. If nature has given us the ability to farm animals then it is 100% natural. Humans are not separate from nature. Anything that is a byproduct of humans is natural.
