is there a right or wrong: vegan, vegetarian, carnivore, fruititarian, omnivore, etc.? Why?
I ask because i have heard people say that it is wrong to eat certain types of food. |

People usually ask: why do we eat some species of animals but not others? It is because those animals we normally eat are domestic poultry (sp?) which this has been practised by humans thousands of years ago. Dogs, for instance, are pets, and NOT domestic poultry.
Well anyways, no matter if you're a vegeterian or whatever, no one can control what you eat. |

QUOTE(niez_cho @ Jan 6 2005, 6:35 AM) People usually ask: why do we eat some species of animals but not others? It is because those animals we normally eat are domestic poultry (sp?) which this has been practised by humans thousands of years ago. Dogs, for instance, are pets, and NOT domestic poultry.  Just because people started eating poultry thousands of years ago doesn't make it any better to eat chickens than eating dogs, for instance. Someone a thousand years ago could've just as easily raised dogs to eat. But instead, they found that dogs were better served as domesticated pets, whether for work or companionship. But someone had to first eat chickens. Just because you're around a thousand years later doesn't mean it makes sense that chickens are ok to eat and dogs are gross to eat. Someone started it. Who knows? Maybe dogs are deliiiiicious. I personally don't eat dogs. lol I eat chicken, beef, pork, venison, duck, goose... I think that's about it. And I would probably never eat dog unless my life depended on it. I just find it funny/interesting how humans chose certain kinds of animals to eat and now it's such a routine that we find anything that strays from that routine to be reprehensible and repulsive. Anyway, there is no right or wrong in this case because most forms of meat and non-meat diets (with the exception of cannibalism. EW.) are socially acceptable. So the only issue of right and wrong would depend on individual morals. Callie |
