A non-cross post from news:alt.humor.puns
Nemo "Tim Bruening" > wrote in message ... > > > nemo wrote: > > > "Tim Bruening" > wrote in message > > ... > > > 2 x 27 days to Christmas. > > > > On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me - > > Ten million pounds . . > > > > So I scarpered! > > 47 days to Christmas. > Hooray! Here's an old idea I resurrected last Christmas - a Christmas Pie. I made a pastry case with a layer of Christmas pudding mix in the bottom - a simple one - breadcrumbs, veg oil, rye flour, syrup, chopped nuts, vine fruits, cinnamon and nutmeg - then a layer of marzipan on top of that, then a layer of cake mix, then after it'd had about 20 minutes in the Microwave a final layer of marzipan and nice sharp-tasting icing made with lemon juice. Not much use if you're trying to lose weight, but at Christmas, who is? So you can add that to the following list! Jingle bells, jingle bells - There's the savory. Nice big bag of Brussels Sprouts All frozen just for me. Roasted spuds, parsnips too, Boy, they'll taste real good. Mustard, wine and Whiskey too All followed by the pud. See it disappear - See me wolf it down. Lovely roasted spuds Nice and golden brown. Savory made from nuts Breadcrumbs wheat and rye. Tastes as good, nutritious too And nothing has to die! |

Guess again, you prancing poof. Plenty of animals DO die as a result of the farming, transportation, and storage practices associated with grains. Many of the deaths are intentional (i.e., pesticides). Others aren't intentional (e.g., flooding during irrigation, burning fields, predation when croplands are harvested, slicing and dicing during planting and harvest, etc.). |

I think it's mostly a matter of doing relatively less harm, than you would if you weren't vegan. I tried to grow some zuchhini over the summer, and the plants all got killed by bugs, before I got around to buying something to fend them off. If it's me or them, naturally I will pick me. When you do the growing yourself, it puts things in a slightly different perspective. tracy PS I think cutting out all dairy really is helping me already. wow. |

It's a very simple question. Answer it this time.

Have you grown them commercially or even for your own use? |

You haven't grown it, and you stubbornly refuse to admit that commmercially-grown crops are not death-free -- because that prove you're a liar. But that's okay. We know you are. |

Your sophistry, as noble as you may think it is to prate incessantly about not harming animals, is specious and meaningless since it's fantasy-based rather than reality-based. The reality of farming doesn't match your fantastical notions of what it could be like. Never has been, never will be. ****. |

You have a problem: animals *do* die in the normal course of commercial-scale agriculture. Your sophistry, as noble as you may think it is to prate incessantly about not harming animals, is specious and meaningless since it's fantasy-based rather than reality-based.

Your severe overuse of Fool and Killer makes entering a dialogue with you insignificant. Maybe I don't agree with alot of what Usual S comments about, but his posts at the very least usually has 'stocky' substance.

Keep avoiding reality, putz. It wouldn't suit you. |

Which is more than can be said about your asinine replies lately. WTF is this bullshit about "monosaturated" fats you were passing off? Do you really think that makes you appear intelligent? And then you wanted to argue whether fruits are actually vegetables. Talk about a waste of space. |

The more commercially-grown food you consume, the greater the number of animals injured, poisoned, or killed for your diet. That pile of dead and wounded animals, if you had the guts to even start to count through it, is the evidence that a vegetarian diet is a meaningless gesture if the criterion for not harming animals actually means NOT HARMING ANIMALS. If you consider harm to animals to be a moral issue, your virtue isn't based on your pipedreams about mythical production that doesn't harm animals, but on your actual consumption and how that consumption affects animals. You get some reprieve to the extent that you grow some of your own food. But since you likely consume foods that are grown on a commercial scale (e.g., grains and legumes) and stored (where health codes REQUIRE proactive pest control), you DO kill animals through your consumption. That makes you no better than someone who eats meat by your own criterion. > Animals don't have to die in order for vegetarians to eat. That's your mythical little pipedream. In the real world, standard vegetarian diets cause animal deaths. >> Your inability to accept reality is noted, killer. >> > The reality is your shame and lack of courage to admit the > fact that vegetarians can eat food without killing animals. You have a higher hurdle to jump since standard vegetarian diets cause animal deaths, and in great quantities. |

BTW...
Why did you ignore this? The more commercially-grown food you consume, the greater the number of animals injured, poisoned, or killed for your diet. That pile of dead and wounded animals, if you had the guts to even start to count through it, is the evidence that a vegetarian diet is a meaningless gesture if the criterion for not harming animals actually means NOT HARMING ANIMALS. If you consider harm to animals to be a moral issue, your virtue isn't based on your pipedreams about mythical production that doesn't harm animals, but on your actual consumption and how that consumption affects animals. You get some reprieve to the extent that you grow some of your own food. But since you likely consume foods that are grown on a commercial scale (e.g., grains and legumes) and stored (where health codes REQUIRE proactive pest control), you DO kill animals through your consumption. That makes you no better than someone who eats meat by your own criterion. > I've grown enough for myself and others when I had the time, You also bought food to supplement what you grew (probably the other way around: you supplemented your normal store-bought diet with some of the produce from your little garden). Why do you avoid discussing your own moral responsibility for causing ANY animal injuries and deaths via your personal consumption of commercially-grown, -stored, and -processed foods and focus only on those who consume meat? You kill animals, they kill animals. You're in the same ****ing boat. |

<...> > Your shame has made you incapable of being honest > concerning vegetarian diets, You're the one who's being dishonest about it by prating about your fantasy about no-harm farming rather than blood-and-guts real-world farming and the dead animals accepted as a normal consequence of agriculture. What goes unaccounted for in Regan's vegan conclusion, according to Davis, is the number of animals who are inadvertently killed during crop production and harvest. "Vegan diets are not bloodless diets," Davis said. "Millions of animals die every year to provide products used in vegan diets." "Over the years that I have been studying animal rights theories, I have never found anyone who has considered the deaths of - or, the 'harm' to - animals of the field," Davis said. "This, it seems to me, is a serious omission." Consequently, Davis asks what is the morally relevant difference between the field mouse and the cow that makes it okay to kill one but not the other so that humans may eat. Few studies document the losses of rabbits, mice, pheasants, snakes and other field animals in planting and harvesting crops. Said one researcher: "Because most of these animals have been seen as expendable, or not seen at all, few scientific studies have been done measuring agriculture's effects on their populations." Davis has found evidence that suggests that the unseen losses of field animals are very high. One study documented that a single operation, mowing alfalfa, caused a 50 percent reduction in the gray-tailed vole population. Mortality rates increase with every pass of the tractor to plow, plant, and harvest. Additions of herbicides and pesticides cause additional harm to animals of the field.... Davis proposes a ruminant-pasture model of food production, which would replace all poultry, pig and lamb production with beef and dairy products. According to his calculations, such a model would result in the deaths of 300 million fewer animals annually (counting both field animals and cattle) than would a total vegan model. This difference, according to Davis, is mainly the result of fewer field animals killed in pasture and forage production than in the growing and harvest of grain, beans, and corn. Applying the Least Harm Principle, Davis argues that people may be morally obliged to consume a diet based on plants and grazing ruminants in order to cause the least harm to animals. http://www.scienceblog.com/community.../20024572.html You also need to respond to what I wrote: The more commercially-grown food you consume, the greater the number of animals injured, poisoned, or killed for your diet. That pile of dead and wounded animals, if you had the guts to even start to count through it, is the evidence that a vegetarian diet is a meaningless gesture if the criterion for not harming animals actually means NOT HARMING ANIMALS. If you consider harm to animals to be a moral issue, your virtue isn't based on your pipedreams about mythical production that doesn't harm animals, but on your actual consumption and how that consumption affects animals. You get some reprieve to the extent that you grow some of your own food. But since you likely consume foods that are grown on a commercial scale (e.g., grains and legumes) and stored (where health codes REQUIRE proactive pest control), you DO kill animals through your consumption. That makes you no better than someone who eats meat by your own criterion. You're a poseur. Don't be offended or feel alone. You're neither the first nor the last. The question is whether you'll be honest enough about it to do something about it or if you'll continue spouting off your delusional platitudes. |
