I don't agree with vegetarianism. I love eating meat. Eating meat gave us the ability to evolve higher cognitive abilities. The high amounts of protein in meat gave us the ability to evolve beyond our animal brethren.
Now, I don't agree with the mistreatment of animals. They inhabit this planet just like we do, and they deserve our respect. That is why I don't like it when people wear fur for fashion rather than survival. If you are in the wilderness and you need to stay warm, kill an animal and wear it's fur and eat it's meat. That is perfectly fine. That is the circle of life. One lifeform consumes another for survival. All creatures do it. However, killing an animal simply for it's fur (be it for it's rarity, or soft fur, etc.) when other means of clothing are WIDELY availablem i.e. synthetics, cotton, plyester etc. is just wrong. J-Lo is a ho. She is a bottom-feeding, money-grubbing, spoiled, selfish whore with no respect for anyone or anything else.
PETA however noble they believe their actions are or howver well they mean, are a pretentious, self-righteous, mean-spirited organization. I don't know if anyone else saw that episode of Penn & Teller's Bullshit! on Showtime, but PETA are a fascist organization that treats people like they were less than animals. The head of the group is a Nazi-ish woman who still eats meat and treats animals badly. I'm all for animal rights and all. We shouldn't needlessly injur or mistreat animals; that is just fucked up. But we can't go around preaching like we were Christ on the mountaintop about how eating meat is wrong and blah blah blah. Hey, PETA! Come down off yr high horse and realize that we wouldn't be where we are today without consuming the flesh of animals!!!!
