Oo... too many posts. I read almost everything, but I'm only going to answer PinkHaired now...

You're always saying that people on the forums don't know you, and yes, that is true, they haven't meat you IRL and it can be that they don't really know you, but still... you get a quite good image from 2405 posts. Plus the ones on Ezboard... I don’t think anyone would waste their time so much just to post thousands of posts saying stuff they don’t agree with… so we do have an image of your personality and beliefs. And of your lack of knowledge in some issues, as well… I said I know a lot more facts on this issue than you do, and I believe I do. Because according to your posts, you don’t know the facts.

:
I flamed you because your always assuming stuff and you don't know what you are talkign about. "Good. I know there's a different. I said there is a difference! You just seem to think that I and other veggies on the board don't know that. We do."-I was not saying that no one did
Exactly where have I been assuming stuff or haven't known what I am talking about? Of course there are many things from which I don't know anything about, but I haven’t been posting to any topics like that on the forums, because of my lack of information in these subjects. What comes to this particular quote, I am not assuming anything. I’m just referring to past topics about this issue, where you have argued about if we are animals or not and the differences between other animals and us. You were saying it there. Anyway, I'm sorry if I confused you. I just remember the old topics and what was said in there and while typing I can’t be sure if something was said in this or some other topic…

:
Your not going to have a peaceful argument if you are calling people ignorant, and lazy! If you think eating meat is wrong, okay. It's just as stupid to try to force someone to do something and to convince them not to do it. That's inhumane and cruel. I use to do that, but now I realize that it's cruel and your just as terrible and I've learned from my mistakes.
Yes, I know. I’m sorry. Read through my posts carefully and you can see I haven’t forced anyone to not eating meat! What I’ve said is that you don’t have to eat meat to be healthy.
You have ? Well, good for you, then…

Jenni, don't try to reason with Pinky. I've tried. It's possible, but really not worth the hassle...
It is? I know, I shouldn’t bother, but I haven’t been active in the forums for long time, so now I’ve got too much energy and I just can’t resist. I know it’s pointless, though…

If I am selfish and ignorant and lazy for eating meat...then I am, just because I eat meat?
Whoah! Hold your horses! You have obviously missed my point. Again. *sigh* I have never said that all meat-eaters are lazy and ignorant. I called you ignorant, because you don't know the facts! Not because you eat meat. You keep saying, that you have to eat meat to stay healthy, which is not true. Why I called you lazy, is that you don't go and study the facts! You obviously don't know them, but you don't go and find out, no. What you do is keep arguing with the same false arguments. I'm not saying you're a bad person, because you eat meat. I just don't like it, that you defend your eating habits by saying that you must eat meat, which isn't true.

:
What does it make you veggies then? Lazy hippies or something?
Yes, I am a lazy hippie.

:
We just don't eat only meat you know!
Yes, I do know. Unlike you don't know that veggies don't eat just fruit and vegetables. [referring to an old topic again, sorry if it gets too complicated for you...]

:
AS for the skinny thing....you can't gain weight from eating vegetables! You wanna gain alittle meat on your bones not lose anymore.
Wrong again... I've been a vegetarian for five months and in that time I have gained weight. 10 kg, to be precise. *eep*

:
There are some people who don't know better too! Your saying that all humans know better? What about rapist? Murders? Theives? Your saying that they know better? If they do, then why do those things?
We are not talking about rapists and murderers in here. No, I'm not saying all humans know better. [Actually, I personally think we are the stupidest animal species around. Killing and hurting each other, other animals and our own planet.] I was saying we know better [not everyone, of course, e.g. you] in the issue, that we can survive and be healthy without eating meat. *wonders how many times she has already posted that sentence on this thread* *sighs*

:
P.S., not all animals kill their food. Have you ever heard of scavengers who feed on dead animals?
*sigh* Yes, I have.

What is your point in this, again? Actually, that's a lot better, than killing the animals yourself.

:
When my mom cooks like chicken or something and we have no vegetables, I have no choice but to eat the chicken. My mom also brings alot of chicken and stuff around the house, and I can't say to my mom "Stop briging meat around the house!" She would look at me like I am crazy.
Don't you have your own mind in U.S.? It isn't your mom's choice, it's yours. Just say you want to eat the freaking meat and stop making excuses!

:
Does that make me selfish, lazy and ignorant then? It's like your saying that any reason, no matter what the situations are of eating meat, it makes you selfish, lazy and ignorant. I know I'm not these things. Your only making yourself look crazy by calling people who eat meat these things.
Look above. Never have said such a thing.

:
And some of the foods I eat are based upon my puerto-rican/African culture!
I eat traditional Finnish foods as well. Without meat.
