Quist Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 PETA were on claiming that parents who fed their kids meat were poisoning them. Said that meat was packed full of poisonous chemicals. Got absolutely slaughtered by the interviewer who challenged them to produce any scientific evidence to support the claim.

Ferret Master Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 Good. Radical extremist organisations like PETA should be banned from polluting the air waves. FM :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Geordie Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 They should ALSO be sterilised to stop them producing children of their own who's minds they will poison before they grow old enough to build their own decisions from FACT rather than the fiction they spout LG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malcolm Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 I've just heard it http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/news/farmingtoday/?focuswin (click "listen again" Wednesday) I think it's good that these people DO get airtime; they can discredit themselves much better than we can!

Quist Posted October 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Even if there were some truth in their arguments. Say about the amount of hormone and antibiotics that go into farmed meat or about the salt and other chemicals that the supermarkets pump in to make the meat hold more water and weigh more, that still doesn't account for wild shot meat which we all know, love and appreciate! So not only no science behind their arguments but no focus either. PETA = ****** who Evade Thinking or Articulating real scientific arguments PETA = People Emotionally Twisted Around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Browning GTS Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 Did you notice this reply John Handford - Chester We are part of the Ape family which are vegetarian. It's not long in evolutionary terms since we learned how to catch animals and started eating meat. But our metabolism has not evolved to eat meat - which is why we have health related problems with it's digestion: * Colon cancer - because we have a long vegetarian gut and meat products break down into damaging components and spend too long in the gut. Meat eaters (lions, tigers, cats, dogs etc.) have short guts. * Cholesterol - Meat eaters do not build up arterial cholesterol. We do because our metabolism does not cope with meat products. * Vitamin C - meat eaters generate their own vitamin C. We do not as our metabolism has evolved as vegetarian, where there is a plentiful supply. * Colour vision - Meat eaters see in black and white. We see in colour to suit recognition of ripe fruit etc. What more proof do you need that eating meat is an abuse o f our metabolism. Reference: WHO Let me see so Chimps do not go out hunting in packs to catch and eat other monkeys. Why do these people show their ignorance time and time again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quist Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 He's incorrect. We have an Omnivore's gut like a pig. Not a ruminants gut like a cow. We aren't capable of fermenting our food internally. Our gut is non-specialist and will cope with meat and vedge but doesn't work well if its given solely one diet of one or the other. Yes, chimps eat insects and meat as well as vegetables. Inuit eat meat, and blubber for long periods and survive. So do people on the Atkins Diet but their breath smells foul too. Go into a health food shop and look at vegetarians. Pasty-faced and spotty. They need to get out more and get some red meat down their necks.
