A good article! It’s especially fun to hear a liberal eat his own words, 1,000-fold over.

Another interesting book written by a former vegetarian is THE VEGETARIAN MYTH by Lierre Keith. Vegans so hate her that they follow her around to disrupt her speaking engagements. I don’t agree with everything she says about modern agriculture, but it was eye-opening just how sick (literally) the vegetarian movement really is.

I realized the egg part after it was already shooting into cyberspace. But, I do require animal products. There is something about cheese that if I do not have it for a week, I have definite mood swings.

Funny how people too ethical to eat meat are more likely to be in favor of abortion:

Does pain dictate whether an Unborn Child is alive?
http://emergingcorruption.com/?p=1180

... But Dr. Benjamin Nathanson did something in the 1980s that turned the science of fetology on its ear. Nathanson, a former abortionist himself, obtained a Realtime ultrasound video of a 12 week suction abortion.

The film, elucidated by Nathanson, is commercially available as the Silent Scream, now over 20 years old. It factually shows the preborn continuously dodging the suction instrument used in the abortion. Heartbeat of the baby doubled. One can see its mouth opening wide while its body was being dismembered, and its appendages were torn off. No sound—since its body was encased in embryonic fluid.

For all indications available at the time, it was obvious the baby could feel incredible amounts of pain, and was scared literally to death. The baby was only 11 weeks old. [snip]

Isn’t amazing to find you can eat a big STEAK dinner and step on the scale the next morning and find you’ve maintained or even lost weight? Some of us just metabolize protein more efficiently than we do carbohydrates.

I know that MEAT is the best food for me, regardless of what the “experts” say.
