They have no pain receptors.I don't know if plant have emotions, I should have said "maybe they have emotions", I never studied plant in depth to know that, this was mainly Hercules argument not mine. I just thought I would agree with him because it sounded correct. My bad maybe. But what you are saying there doesn't prove plants doesn't have emotions. It proves they don't feel pain like we do. Like I said they are lower evolved. I still think there something that happen when we kill a plant, I don't know if emotions is the correct term. Again very negligible compared to animals but there is still something.
When you're killing an animal, you're killing another creature with ears, eyes, taste, nose and the ability to think and feel pain. A pig is as smart as a three year old child and a dog.

Humans have been brainwashed into thinking meat is the healthy way to live, the meat and dairy industry funds the medical industry so that they make more profits.I agree with that. I mainly want to eat plants because of health and karma which I believed are linked.
And lets be honest, how many of you are eating pure organic wild meat. Which is still not healthy but not nearly as bad as the slaughterhouse meats you eat full of hormones, negative suffering energy from being tortured to death and seeing other animals die right before you die, and fed a poor GMO diet.

Human intestines are very long unlike other meat eaters so the disgusting meat doesn't go in and out quickly like a lion for example. It takes a long time to travel and it's not healthy for our body's.Very interesting. But I didn't die from eating not cooked beef and I did eat a lot of it for a long time. And a lot of french do the same. So maybe you are exaggerating here but I agree about your main idea.
Our canines are from evolution not natural & they aren't nearly as strong or as big as a real carnivore. We are also the only animal that has to cook there meat or else they would DIE eating it.

While we did eat meat many civilizations survived primarily on non animal sources.Well vegans still get sick but not as often and not for the same reason. I wouldn't expect to be disease free because I eat only plants. I also think a lot of plants can cause disease if you eat the wrong one. I also I think different individuals have different diet requirement, one plant can kill one and can heal another. This is mainly why I see India's knowledge so appealing because they described all those things in some books. While in the west the main idea is to think that meat is bad and all plants are good what ever plant it is, at least the common vegetarian in the west. I think this is the reason a lot of western guy fail to become full vegan; or vegetarian.
We are vegetarians by nature that developed the ability to eat meat, through manipulation (fire) and evolution.
Go to any hospital I guarantee you won't find any sick vegans. I guarentee they ate a primarily meat diet if they have Cancer and some other illnesses.

All fish have allot worms and bacteria in it's body btw from the garbage they eat.
I personally would put fish in the same categories as meat maybe a little less problematic as long as the fish is healthy. Which might be rare nowadays.
But butter and milk I'm still not sure about it. I need to study more about diet anyway, I'm walking half blind here.
