Getting Bored of this Board . . .

@Jennifer:

Well, we all know that Jermo never went through survival training!

I was in scouts, we did this stuff all the time.

Hydration from Animals: Drink their blood.  It’s also high in iron, yum!

Men don’t need lots of iron, and women can just as well “OD” on it.

You also can survive an entire lifetime on nothing but animal flesh.

No, really, you can’t.  It’s possible if you are an Inuit, eating a traditional diet, but you or I (assuming you aren’t Inuit) couldn’t do that.  And that diet isn’t comparable to the one you would have if you were lost in a temperate forest, eating only the animals you found.  You’d also have to get used to eating meat raw rather than cooked to get something other than protein.

You can survive on nothing but plant flesh, but you’ll suffer mentally, physically and bio-chemically due to improper nutrition.

Um, a vegetarian diet is perfectly safe. Vegan diets are a bit trickier, but can also sustain you, although I don’t necessarily recommend them for kids.

Sorry, but there’s plenty of things you just cannot get from plants.  However, animals eat plants, thus, you get all the plant goodness from the flesh of the animal + the nutrition from what they turned that goodness into as well.

Plenty?  No, that’s completely wrong.  Vitamin B12 is the only thing.  And you can get that from a good beer.

As for some animals not going extinct, it’s more then that.  Without humans we would have:

No Cows (like they can survive in the wild?)
No Chickens
No Pigs (hogs yes, pigs no)

This is some sort of accomplishment?

Most fish would be gone.  We not only farm fish, but we create most the hybrids people like today like Striped Bass, etc.

I guess you are missing the warnings that we are overfishing.

That’s just the most obvious, most platant examples of wildlife that would not exist if we did not eat them.

You sound so humble.  You do realize that when you eat something, it ceases to exist, don’t you?

@AJ:

You know Jermo I don’t think the Native Americans have thanked us enough for not wiping them out

I hope that’s sarcasm.

Of Course :wink:

Now the question is is that sarcasm :wink:

I sure hope his post was nothing but, because he got everything backwards in his post.  It’s like saying that there is ZERO pollution coming out of the North American continent.  Utterly and totally ridiculous.

What was this thing about addressing the argument again?

I did.  I basically said your entire arguement is a bunch of dung and that I hope you are being sarcastic because if you arn’t you are less informed on the subject then most people.
