PETA UK Is at It Again

I fully agree with Ariel's posting of 2109. I just feel to reply to dear Christopher Cochran MD You seems to be a bit confused. Everybody seems to me very clear in this blog but you struggle to understand. There is not much point the we reply to your convictions. However... Gandhi was a vegan and he rejected any form of little technology they had at his time...apparently he survived pretty well he was actually killed by a man!. One single case does not count you may say. So what about a great number of Buddhist Indu and Christians today's and past ones. We are talking in all of about millions of them who arewere vegans or vegetarians with early Christians being mainly vegan. Among them also many "scientists" like DaVinci Einstein B.Franklin Edison Tesla Newton Darwin Pythagoras . What kind of technology did they have at their time? By the way do you think that without technology you could farm animals? The China study included thousands of individuals and has shown without reasonable doubt the health benefits of leaving meat eggs and diary out of your diet. I personally don't buy any particular processed food nor added vitamins. I think I live pretty well surely much better than before. Every single person that I have managed to "vegganize" seems to think the same...oh sorry it must be the whiskey!! You think that omnivorous are healthier...you think fair enough. Unfortunately there is not scientific data that can back you up though. In fact epidemiological studies don't support your theory. You should also note that many vegans were meat eaters earlier in their life many vegans nowadays are actually born so. I wonder if you have ever become vegan for let's say more than a year. 'Cause if you don't try you don't know Anyhow I shall tell my family to contact you when I die so that you can say that I died 'cause of my diet!

Kristin Iannarella Please allow me to explain. This is an ANIMAL RIGHTS' blog site. This is NOT an "animal welfare" blog site. There is a difference between "animal welfare" and "animal rights." So Kristin you cannot have it both ways with eating meat animal welfare and honestly say that you believe in the rights of animals to its fullest meaning. "Ethical" treatment of animals according to animal rights' beliefs actually extends beyond making them comfortable before slaughter providing comfortable living conditions when they live in barbaric testing labs etc. "Animal rights" is truly believing that animals are not ours to eat exploit or to torture under any circumstances...and acting on it. Therefore what you defined as what would be accomplishing "our purpose" is not our total purpose as animal rights' activists. Our goals are to totally eliminate animal suffering and exploitation. To some other posts in general from the antiactivists Since this is an ANIMAL RIGHTS' blog site to which you are welcome please have the courtesy or common sense of realizing that you are sounding off to animal rights' activists who are totally dedicated and most are extremely knowledgeable due to years of being involved in animal rights. When you present your anticomments thinking they are humorous or having intentions of being derogatory or attempting to negate then you are clearly telling us about yourselves. You are telling us that you have no knowledge whatsoever concerning animal rights' issues...and you are telling us how insensitive you are not particularly towards us but to helpless beings. Please keep mind that we are definitely not offended with your ridiculous comments...because for anyone to be involved in animal rights it not only includes having compassion and being selfless it also includes having a tremedous ability to confront the atrocities that are done to helpless living beings. So with that in mind and without having to repeat it I totally agree with Ana's post on Sept. 20 please refer

From a son of an animal farmer who has become vegan two years ago and is also a regular blood donor You can't be an animal right believer and then eat them it does not make sense. Basically I can take you to ANY compassionate or not animal farm and you would understand what I am saying. Those who have seen any herbivore panting should stop watching too many cartoons sorry for teasing you but your are too funny. Meat eaters like I was and so my family are very emotionally dependent on their own habits exactly like smokers alcoholics etc.. Their are unfortunately emotionally unhealthy as they speak out of their anger and not much with the reason they believe it distinguish them from the animals. Have a nice peaceful day everybody.

I meant to address my post to Christopher not Ana. Sorry for any confusion!

Melissa I did not pose any question!!! So what's your point?? That was Cochran look carefully.
