Ugh, that's a pain in the ass.  Felt sorta proud just learning how to resize pics in the html.  Does it blur when using zoom in things like on this forum?  And does Safari have a zoom function like the Firefox extension and does it blur with that too?


yeah it blurs images on this forum - but i dont normally go beyond 2x, 3x max - and the blur doesnt really kick in then.

there is no zoom extension for safari.

Well, it's not something I really worry about. Like, I eat and drink pretty healthy and I'm in good shape (dispite my procrastinating habbits. lol), so I'm not really concerned with the "evils" of eating meat. Not to mention that having some meat in your diet is healthy for humans (us being the omnivorous creatures we are).

curious, but what is it that you eat and drink? You can think you are in good shape and still be unhealthy..
there's nothing healthy about eating meat, infact, humans aren't meant to eat meat. It digests very slowly as opposed to other forms such as fruit which are both higher in nutrients and water and digests almost instantly..
It also costs less to be vegetarian, because to raise livestock you have to feed them and give them gallons of water, etc.. also it creates more pollution at factory farms and such, not to mention the chemicals and artificial stuff they put in it all.

Wasn't it protein in meat that allowed humans to evolve into what we are today?

If God didn't want me to eat meat, he wouldn't have made it taste so good.

you eat raw meat from nature untampered with by humans which are trying to make profits from it?

I slept through most of 7th grade science but i'm pretty sure they taught us that as our evolutionary predecessors' diets shifted more towards meaty goodness, it allowed our brains to grow larger, which was a pretty big deal since the intelligence of early man (and primitive man-like fuzzwads) is more or less what we owe our continued survival to.  I wouldn't say the same about the intelligence of present-day man though ;p

Plus, meat is delicious, even when it's been stripped from an unwilling animal in the prime of its life, processed, packaged, and exploited for profit.  Mmm, profit.

Hmm i don't think it being digested slowly is much of a problem. Starch is digested slowly and therefore gives a slow release of energy, which we need alongside quick bursts which come with fruit and stuff. The fat in meat is quite important (not as much now, seeing as we eat so friggin much) aswel.

I believe the reason meat takes longer to digest than fruit is because it has high amounts of protein in it and fruit doesn't. 

And "not being meant to do X" does not necessarily equate with "doing X is bad for you."
