I think it's a great discussion because it is not just killing animals for the sake of eating meat now, it is torturing. I would not be opposed to people eating meat that is sanitary to eat, not filled with chemicals and hormones and killed humanely. Animals these days are tortured and meat causes cancer and milk actually feeds cancer. Do the research and see. Look up or watch "The Gerson Theory" where someone discovered if you don't eat animal products and eat the right vegetables see more and fruits and so on YOU DON'T GET CANCER AND HEART DISEASE. For Houston I believe many people are raised on meat including me and when you realize how much you can actually eat that is meat and still get very full. You also feel much better. But if I was at a point where i was 10 years ago I would think it would be crazy to go vegetarian .....like some thing was wrong with it....but now thanks to Youtube.com I can see just how cruel the animals are treated and just how BAD the meat is for you.....please do some research on "The Gerson Theory" in you tube. People who are trying the gerson theory as a nutritional alternative to cancer treatment and heart disease and many other diseases are being cured. It includes no meat or dairy. They are reaaaaallllly bad for you........But if your freaked out about what am I going to eat now......just quit thinking a meal is centered around a piece of meat......it is not and you can get full with out it......just make sure you are getting your protiens through beans, nuts and veggies and your hunger for meat will completely go away.

I am not suprised to see so many non meat eaters on here because people who like to help communities and do these kinds of sites are usually very humanitarian oriented.......

Don't get angry houston because you are not sure how to survive not eating meet.......most people are not sure and do not know any other way. But just try not eating meat for one day and see what happens. If you eat nuts or beans along with other foods you wont crave the meat and you will feel better.....just try it for a day......
