Should we all eat less meat?
The Groan, where else? This is, after all, the mouthpiece of the veggie-cong.
Man is an omnivorous animal. Consequently we eat both meat and vegetable matter. How much of each – of if any at all is a personal matter. So as an individual, make up your own mind. Ah, but, the fundamentalists like those health freak fundamentalists who want you to stop smoking, stop drinking, stop eating fats, salt and lordy knows what else, aren’t satisfied with you eating what you as an adults decide – they demand to make that decision for you and continue to nag and hector us about it – along with the scare stores designed to petrify us into submission.
Well, I am not petrified. I am defiant. I will not be cowed, browbeaten, bullied, nagged, guilt-tripped or otherwise manipulated by these people. If I want to eat meat every day, I will damned well do so.
Suppose – just suppose, that we all obeyed the whims and fantasies of these health fascists; would they self-destruct when they had bugger all to rail about? 😀
