I am already a vegetarian so this article doesn´t change anything. But I wonder if cows see me as competition for food?

Vegetarian, not vegan. Vegatarians can eat some things of animal origin. She just can't swallow....
. In any case vegetarians can eat cheese and dairy. So think of any "byproducts" like cheese.

Intrestingly, there are genetic differences between ethnic gruops based on how meat-rich the diet is. People whose ancestors ate lots of meat in thiee diet are at less risk of heart disease from eating food rich in saturated fat and cholesterol than people whose ancestors ate little meat.Comment

TMI - on a thread titled "Cows look calm, but really they are gay nymphomaniacs".
Oh, and my wife read the posts - and accused me of having guy banter.

It's all well and good with the intellectual masturbation about rights and suffering, but personally; as long as an animal hasn't suffered in its life, has had good food and good sex, and killed in a quick, humane manner, I have no problem with eating it. I don't think vegetarianism is wrong, ditto veganism... I wouldn't want it forced on me but must respect anyone who has the mental strength to avoid meat.

The problem is that the cows are often sacrificed in an assembly line manner. The cow behind the one getting slugged in the head by the pneumatic hammer can probably see what's happening. The poor thing probably nearly has a heart attack, yet is too overcome by grief over the passing of her dear friend to run for life. Clearly a more humane process is required. Each cow should be taken aside seperately. The farmer should give her her favorite hay, gently stroke her head, whisper soothing words into her ear, then pull out a silenced revolver behid her back a deliver a single coup de grace at point blank range.
OTOH, maybe gay cows should be allowed one last "roll in the hay". During the tryst the farmer bursts in, screams in morale outrage, then executes both of them right there while in flagrante delicato . They get one last moment of happiness, and he gets steak. What could be more fair?"I say shoot'em all and let God sort it out in the end!Comment

How do you define "pain"? If you mean the awareness of physical damage to one's body, plants certainly feel "pain," and how much more or less they feel than people is hard to say because it's of such a different type. If you mean the ability to ruminate on the nature of the damage, or to know what the feeling really means, then pain actually is linked to intelligence in that sense. This is why I don't care.
Maybe the animal can feel pain, and I think it wrong to make an animal feel more pain than necessary, just on principle, but the beast is not human. It was bred and raised for the explicit purpose of being killed and eaten someday. So far as we can discern it, the purpose of these beasts' lives is to end, as Agent Smith put it in a really crappy movie. Yay for meat.Comment
