So who is better the meat eat who kills 20000 animals in a 20 year span,
or the vegan who kills 20000 less in the same span of time? That is
after all, what this seems to be about -- the effort to make the vegan
appear "no better" than the meat eater.

Neither. If you kill animals and you think it's wrong,
you are doing wrong.

The principle of veganism implies that you must consider a one death meat
over a potentially many death commercially produced meat substitute.

Yes it is. It is implied in veganism that your impact on animals decreases
in direct proportion to the removal of animal products from your life.

That principle does not apply here. When comparing foods, you literally

You've gone back to health concerns again. We're talking about impact on
animals caused by various foods.

It is completely invalid. If we were assessing your behaviour to decide
whether or not to charge you with a crime, would it be valid to average your
actions with all other *******s?

I am debating these issues honestly and fairly, you refuse to make valid
comparisons or stick to the topic. Who is really trolling?

I don't hunt, and it was a smarmy, patronizing, humourless effort. Between
your veganism and your pot smoking you are barely conscious.

What an arrogant **** you are. You announce this as if it's never been done
before.

There is no collective morality. I am responsibile for what *I* do, not what
"people like me" do on average.

The vegan must replace that meat with a comparable substitute. I can replace
that substitute with fresh fish, then I win.

I did a one to one comparison. Using your philosophy of responsibility
you are responsible for the deaths of 20000 more animals than the vegan
in a 20 year span. They win. They are better than you.

roflmao. Fish are animals (although not mammals). Dead fish are still
dead animals.

They win, Dutch. The morality of their position is superior.

You're a full-time shitbag sophist, too, because above
you say you accept responsibility for the CDs attached
to your fruits and vegetables, but you've spent days
trying unsuccessfully to reject the notion of shared
responsibilty. You don't kill the animals yourself, so
the responsibility you say above that you accept is
SHARED responsibility, exactly as I described it.

So what was with all the fruity dancing then, homo?

They aren't better than all meat-eaters though, and that spoils their
categorical claims. Notice how Scented can't admit this?

Fresh fish causes fewer collateral deaths than Ives soya ground round.
Therefore a vegan could improve by eating fresh fish instead of Scented's
chili, another dagger in their categorical pose.

> They win, Dutch. The morality of their position is superior.


The morality of veganism is no ****in good at all. If their claims were more
realistic and moderate it might be, but as it stands it is wholly morally
relativistic in the worst possible way.

In addition, they have not even attempted to establish that it is morally
better to kill fewer animals.

The seas and lakes are being overfished. The cds
connected to some seafood is as high as 100:1
Other seafood is now factory farmed, and fed
inferior waste products as food and I can't
imagine that being very healthy.

I've already claimed that a meat eater can be
healthier than a vegan who only eats candy bars,
but as far a harm reduction goes, it's an unknown
statistic at this point. Was the meat eater's
vegetables cd free? Was his meat? There's
always the intentional death involved, don't
forget. Was the vegan eating only candy from
the health food store, which was veganically
farmed and fairly traded chocolate and sugar?
There's a lot of unknowns.

But the exact numbers aren't known, so arguments
can't be made based on them. All we know for sure
is (how many times have I repeated this?!?!) that
the meat industry as a whole uses tons more crops
and land than the non-animal food industry. If cds
are increased by the more cropland used, then it's
only logical to conclude that the animal food
industry causes many times more cds. We just
don't know the exact numbers.

What crime? And why are you so positive that I'm a

wife, don't you? For all you know, I like playing
with penises so much, that I need a new man every
day. Then again, I might be the butchest bulldyke
you've ever met.

====================
And you're lying about it, killer. You've been shown proof of your tofu
too, but you seem to continue to ignore that. Why is that, hypocrite?
Ignorance? Stupidity? Or just plain religious dogma?

====================
And you've been told that a meat eater can be healthier than any vegan. ou
cannot get what you need from plants alone. And your suppliments make you
non-vegan, killer.

Why do you think yours is?

=====================
Yes, your veggies are full of intentional death. Brutish, inhumane death.
That must be the part that gets you off, eh killer?

Yes, everything you 'know' is unknown, fool. You're as stupid as theycome,
killer.

========================
LOL The 'exact' numbers aren't needed to prove that your categorical claims
are lys, fool. the fact that millions upon millions of animals die for
your veggies is more than proof enough of your hypocrisy and stupidity.

Why don't you? Afterall, it would ensure that you end up killing far fewer
animals than you do now, hypocrite.
