Go the Vegetarian


When listening to the podcast on vegetarianism it makes sense to become a vegetarian and why people are. It was very interesting to hear the reasons why we shouldn't eat animals but instead eat plant like organisms. The way you described it made a lot of sense and the explanation was I felt good. The way we classify animals and what we eat are interesting. We wouldn't eat a dog or cat because one it's out of the social norm and two because we think it has feelings and a consciousness but then what about cows and fish? We eat those like junk food but we don't think of them like we do a dog or cat because dogs and cats are pets and a part of your family. When we eat a cow we don't of them like we do our pets. We see a huge steak in front of us and we eat it not thinking about it was once a cow and to some had feelings and a conscious but we don't think of them that way.
I can see how people are vegetarians when you look at it in this aspect because it even made me think of becoming one. I am a meat eater to the max I love steak and red meat and chicken and all of those but when you put it the way you did in the podcast I could see how people are against eating animals and if I wasn't such a huge meat eater I probably would be a vegetarian myself but to me it's like a an addicting taste that I can never get enough of.
