How about cat - the other white meat?
To: All
I got one question for vegetarians: if every person on the planet were a vegetarian, would there be enough vegetarian food to feed everyone? I believe the honest, factual answer to that question is no. And BTW, all of you out there that think eating meat is a sin, the Bible says that Peter, an observant Kosher Jew, was told at a certain point that ANYTHING can now be eaten. (See reference below). So if you weenies out there lose sleep because someone ate a hamburger this evening, the Almighty doesn't share your dietary requirements, thank goodness.....
ACTS Chap 11: 4 Peter began and explained everything to them precisely as it had happened: 5 "I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision. I saw something like a large sheet being let down from heaven by its four corners, and it came down to where I was. 6 I looked into it and saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, reptiles, and birds of the air. 7 Then I heard a voice telling me, 'Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.' 8 "I replied, 'Surely not, Lord! Nothing impure or unclean has ever entered my mouth.' 9 "The voice spoke from heaven a second time, 'Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.' 10 This happened three times, and then it was all pulled up to heaven again.

This should be distributed to every pediatritian, school administrator and school child in this country! That's where the PETA crowd has made the biggest dent.
Excellent post!

Vegetarianism makes you calm, loving and peaceful? Well, it didn't work that way for Hitler.

I'm not totally opposed to eating vegetable matter. Beer, wine and whiskey are ultimately vegetable matter.

Mad Cow disease is no myth.

Actually, cat is a dark meat. I would rather have rattle-snake or alligator.

Thanks for the article. I'm filing it for later reading, so I have ammunition against the vegan (Chevy Vegan?) froot loops next time I run across 'em.

Thank you for this article; took my printer 20 minutes but I am so glad to have a copy. After a lifetime of trying to live with little meat so I could extend my dancing and running career, ill health put meat and basically a low carb diet on my plate and I am the leanest and healthiest of my life and running 50 to 70 miles (albeit slow miles) a week. If meat kills, I'm a goner! THanks again!

We don't come back from the grocery store every week with several pounds of meat, but once a month or so I come home with several hundred pounds of various species cut and wrapped for my convenience.

I don't eat meat because I'm a Veterinarian........
To: Brookhaven
Know what makes a militant in-your-face style vegetarian go into apoplexy? Just ask them, in a serious tone "If we aren't supposed to eat animals, then why are they made of meat?" Torques them off every time.

oh that's brilliant. kinda like when Jeff Dahmer said to me, 'If we're not supposed to eat humans, how come they're made of meat?'
