| Vegan (alt.food.vegan) This newsgroup exists to share ideas and issues of concern among vegans. We are always happy to share our recipes- perhaps especially with omnivores who are simply curious- or even better, accomodating a vegan guest for a meal! |

You sure did slink away quietly from the "inefficiency" issue. *I showed conclusively that ****witted "vegans" see their bullshit "inefficiency" argument against meat as something entirely separate from an environmental argument, and you just threw in the white towel, after waving it weakly for a few minutes. What the **** possessed you to argue for so long from such a weak position of ignorance, anyway? *I guess it must have been your usual partisanship. Well, the title of the thread is correct, I did concede that you had proved your point. My perspective on what happened is that you claimed for a number of years that some vegans present an "inefficiency" argument entirely separate from any environmental concerns or concerns about global food distribution. I waited a number of years for you to produce a citation to support this contention. You finally got around to meeting your obligation to do this, and I then politely conceded that you had proved your point. And yes, I always agreed that this argument was a poor one, I just wasn't convinced that anyone made it, and it was your job to show me this, which you have now finally done. You see this as being somehow weak, well, you're entitled to take that view. Note that this is in contrast to when I proved that "axiomatisable" is a real word, and you just stopped commenting on the issue, hoping that eventually people would get bored and stop talking about it. |
