What's with this anti-vegetarianism?
Can't we all get along? Heck, I could care less if someone wants to live
on soy. -- Bob in CT |

Me neither.
There are lots of times I just don't feel like eating meat, when the smell, the look or the idea of the texture is a real turn off. To each his own. This is a support group for LC, not an anti vegetarian group. jo nj "Bob in CT" wrote in message news Can't we all get along? Heck, I could care less if someone wants to live on soy. Bob in CT |

A difference of opinion on lifestyles is fine and can be discussed with pro's and con's in a civilized manner When it degenerates into name calling and idiocy like "I'm right and you are wrong and you are a dumbass and will die early" then I'm pretty much done with it. Most of the time anyway. ;-) There are idiots in both courts. A balanced diet is best IMHO to include food sources from Plant, animal and fungal kingdoms. YMMV. -- Om.

I'm not anti-vegetarian, I'm anti MILITANT vegetarian that thinks we are all awful, evil, fat and unhealthy because we eat animal protein. Just a few trolls passing through. At a glance it appears some of them run keyword searches on posts and then go attack. It's fun to point out the flaws and goad them into statements that are outright idiocy. But like any troll infestation it will pass soon enough. Trolls are low carb, but they turn to stone when exposed to sunlight. I've always wondered if the stoning process increases their carb count. |
