I agree with you. Both soda and milk are no good (except breast milk for infants). I don't know what is so difficult to understand here. Of course, if people want to keep drinking that crap, all the power to them. It's still a free country.

I honestly believe that beer, cider and wine are better for kids then milk. I'm totally serious. Not jesting at all. In moderate amounts, of course.

You never see other species drinking milk after they have been weened.

That's the point. It is a free country. Of course if you drink soda excessively, or milk excessively (or anything excessively) then it will be bad for you. The point is that these animal rights groups want to infringe on the rights of individuals to choose for themselves.They wish to force everyone to adhere to their diet choices under the ridiculous premise that animals somehow have "rights." When they show me an animal that can invent the computer, fly a spacecraft, cure cancer, write great works of literature, particpate in economic commerce, make laws, hold a job, etc, then maybe we can talk about rights. Animals do not have rights. We are the dominate species on the planet. We make the rules. If animals have rights, then they must also be responsible for their behavior. Under that scenario, we can jail the lion for killing its prey.
