      @@kyleB061 Ellsworth Wareham, a prominent heart surgeon, died at the age of 104 and was vegan for 50+ years. ua-cam.com/video/hGQTpxjbwaM/v-deo.html He worked up until the age of 74. He continued to ASSIST AND OBSERVE younger surgeons until he was in his MID 90s. At 100, he still drove his car and continued to do his own gardening and lawn maintenance. At 100 he had a SHARPER MIND than most meat eaters in their 70s (just check the video I provided). So this kind of disproves your invented-5-minutes-ago theory about vegans.

      @ItsSh0ckwave I highly doubt you ever mind your own business. This video just popped up on my screen so I'm not going to look to see how old it is. You didn't have to respond to it. Unlike you I do have a life and it is very filled with joy and happiness. I don't even know why you came on a vegan site if you don't want to know the truth. This is for open-minded people. If you want to live in ignorance that is your choice but don't stop people from trying to make a better life for everyone in this world. If somebody was sex trafficking children would you let it happen or would you speak up? People tried to shut Jesus up when he was trying to preach so why would this be any different?

    • @Rescue127
      @Rescue127 8 місяців тому +2

      @ItsSh0ckwave it doesn't surprise me that someone wants to attack someone's character. Like you said everyone has the right to their opinion but when you come on a vegan site you have to understand that people will make comments back at you because you are on the opposite side and you do not wish to hear the truth.. It's normal to have a debate. And by the way the first miracle that Jesus did was not the bread and fish it was turning water into wine. When you Google the Bible make sure you get the correct reference okay? Also Jesus ate mostly plant-based food and only fish a few times. It was documented by the scholars who did extensive research on the bible. When Jesus died for our sins he covered Us in the blood of himself so there was no more need for sacrificing after that. It is purely by choice only but if you truly are into the Bible you remember that the beginning there was no meat eating the animals were for companions only. When we all go to heaven it will be the same scenario. Why would you not want to emulate that to God now to show him that we have learned not to do violence toward his creation? The reason for the sex trafficking comment was just to let you understand that when people don't agree with something they do have the right to speak their mind otherwise atrocities will go unchecked. If I was to go by societies mindset I would be living in a communist country. I truly believe you don't mean me any disrespect at least I hope you don't it's okay to disagree with me. In my family we just say we agree to disagree and we move on. Sometimes I may not word it as what you would like to hear but I am human and since you're not in front of me face-to-face I can't see your reaction so I don't know how you're taking my comment. Whatever you choose in life it is your choice but I stand strong in what I wrote Because I feel that with all the information out there showing how the meat and Dairy Industries are causing climate change and how 75% of the soy crops grown are fed to the agricultural farming along with the abuse they do to animals it might spark some interest on your part in researching this and then maybe you might understand why I feel the way I do. The two documentaries that might help are Dominion and Cowspiracy. I wish you well on your journey ahead.

There is no defence for a butcher or farmer, as the facts are, the animals are terrified, and have their throats slit, as a baby, and in this day and age, it is unnecessary. There can be no argument about this, only the argument on its morality?

      @julespaints 5 років тому +3

      Tim Bird not strictly true. Predators eat other animals out of necessity. We did once as environmental factors meant we had to adapt, and some people still need to, such as Inuit peoples, but no westerner needs to at all. We can get all of our nutritional needs from plants, apart from b12, and not even animals get much of that without dietary supplements nowadays. Plus if you look at prehistoric man, you will find that the vast majority of their diet was starches and berries. Meat was a very small percentage

      ​@@timsbird1971 Tim, you're comment was FULL of inaccurate statements. I'm not going to address them all now, but I'll point out one - Our bodies are ADAPTED to eat meat in ONLY in SURVIVAL SITUATIONS, but NOT evolved to eat it as our PREFERRED source of food when we are no longer in survival mode. When the choice is between some damage to your body from the animal products or DEATH, obviously some damage is preferred to death, BUT again, ONLY in SURVIVAL SITUATIONS!! There's a VERY big difference. You are also adapted to utilize CAFFEINE as a source of energy BUT you are NOT meant to use it as a source of nourishment. I may answer to your other wrong statements later if I can be bothered. I'm a bit busy with some important stuff.

Never bathed etc. Humans evolved and became better with time. What was considered normal and justified then doesn't make a logical or reasonable argument now. You could use your argument to justify all the immoral things they did. We no longer need to eat meat to survive. Humans only had to eat meat when we moved out of the tropical climates. Torturing sentient animals for something we don't need and are healthier without is barbaric and is animal abuse. We preach, as you called it, because there's a victim in this situation that is unable to speak for themselves.
      Humans are not carnivores or omnivores.
      If you were either, you would enjoy the taste of raw meat, the blood, the guts, all of it. Humans find it repulsive for a reason. We can only eat meat if it's seasoned, cooked etc.. You weren't born with a frying pan in your hand. You also weren't born with a knife in your hand or the teeth to kill and rip open an animal for dinner. You were born however, with two hands that can easily pick fruit from a tree and the right teeth to easily eat it. Humans are frugivores. Carnivores have short digestive tracts for a reason. The dead, rotting, putrefying flesh needs to move out of the body quickly. Otherwise, it sits there and rots in your intestines and you end up with unhealthy bacteria, parasites and a whole host of other problems. Meat being one of the largest causes of colon cancer. Humans have long winding digestive tracts to slowly assimilate nutrients from plants. Humans also don't have the same stomach acid to break down animal flesh the way carnivores do. Meat causes a huge number of problems within the human body. Meat is also too acidic and is extremely inflammatory. Because the body has a calcium buffering system, your body will literally leach the calcium right out of your bones and connective tissue to rebalance itself. This is why as you get older, people shrink, get saggy, wrinkled etc.
      Anyway, believe what you want. You have the right to eat anything that you want as long as you aren't causing a living, sentient being to be tortured, raped and then murdered for your food choices. This isn't caveman times anymore, even though some humans still haven't matured or evolved enough to realize that it isn't silly to respect all life.

      They are ignorant and toxic people for the most part. You really just have to realize that and accept it. Don't waste your time on people that aren't evolved enough or capable enough to see the truth. You will just frustrate yourself to death. I know from personal experience. Some people will forever be ignorant fools and no amount of logic or reasoning will reach them. You'll be able to recognize toxic people that you shouldn't waste your time on because they won't be willing to hear you out, even if they look like they're listening, nothing that you say actually reaches them. They can't be reasoned with, don't see logic and they are often rude, selfish or offensive with the people around them.

    No shit. Carbon that they eat is in solid form within plants, while what they emit is CO2 and CH4 (methane), and they are greenhouse gasses.
    Solid carbon is not an issue.
    and its even a fallacy to just look at the "carbon", because a methane molecule and a CO2 molecule BOTH contain one carbon, but CH4 is a 20-80 times stronger greenhouse gas (!) (generally accepted estimate is 28-36), and it is emitted by livestock farming (in flatulence and feces) in massive amounts

      He is actually (partially) right on this one. If the grass wouldn't be eaten by cows, it would at some point decay, releasing the same amount of carbon. The climate issue with animal farming is not the carbon that the animals "produce" but the increased land-use that comes from it. Without animal farming we would need far less agricultural space and have forests instead of grassland, capturing more carbon in solid form. The butcher conveniently leaves this part out. You are right about the methane though.

If we farm cows in a way that respects how they originally lived, they would cover vasts amount of land and keep lots of grass short . So we can do this by using frequent field rotations.

      @@steakandchips9046 they're unreal, brainwashed idiots. Fine, let them have an ideology, but please get simple facts correct. I've noticed none of them will accept any arguement that shows the flaws in their choice. Granted there's benefits of a vegan diet, but there's also a lot of health issues too, just the same as there are on a normal balanced diet. Try telling them that and its met with ignorance.

    Forests hold more carbon for longer. You know forest with trees that they cut down to clear land for farming. They even cut down the trees around the paddock perimeters now so that they can install their rotary irrigators.

    After watching your videos and doing quite a bit of my own research I've decided to go vegan. I can't make an argument as to why if I can enjoy most of the same foods without an animal needing to suffer there's any need to consume animal products. If I can be convinced that going vegan is the right thing to do then absolutely anyone can.

    As a compromise between vegans and meat eaters, how about we stop consumption of meat and egg by 100%, and then stop cheese consumption by 90%. It will take time for people to get weaned off the cheese addiction, but it will happen gradually.
