Same argument against vegetarianism/veganism


we have teeth "designed" or evolved for eating meat, thus we should eat meat.

...we also have brains capable of abstract reasoning, but nevermind that!

Not entirely convinced this is true of the people who claim 2 sharp teeth means we gotta do factory farming

Ugh…obviously my mini rant here is not about “evolving” because it involves religion…but the “pre-destined” part of your comment is not far from some religions justification for factory farming being ok.

I was once told by a fundie coworker that it says in the Bible that god put animals on the earth to serve the purposes of humans and thus any use of animals is ok.

I ended up telling her I wasn’t going to argue the Bible because some things are just not ok, and I don’t need an old book to tell me that.
