    im laughing my butt off here at work reading some of your hilarious comments!

    I've always liked other catholic's priests and pastors reponse to questions like mine...

    all they say is, "It's a mistery"

    Damn right it's a mistery...

    But JDUBS and their hilarious GayBody have an explanation for EVERYTHING

    Animals are a food source.......

    do you have any idea how Stone Age that thinking is...... Once upon a time, we were a food source and likely will be again. Animals aren't made of food you nutter, they are made of the exact same stuff as us.

    Jesus Christ shoot me now....

    That also brings up the question: Did the first man to die, Able (not Adam), die because of sin or because they didnt get to eat from the Tree of Life and become like the Gods?

    And apparently God must have invented the sword.

    The ribeye I grilled last night was made of food. Every living thing is food to some other living thing.

    Uh, no.

    I've always found that part rather amusing too.

    A unicorn ate from the tree of knowledge and Yahweh wiped them off the earth.....and a Labrador pooped on Jehovahs lawn in Eden and was cursed.

    one of my favorite jokes:

    "If we're not supposed to eat animals, why are they made of meat?"

    Telomerase reduction as a result of cell subdivision. Just like humans.

    Well, sure they do; one of their main things is "providing the answers that the churches of Christendom cannot".

    In medical school, I was dutifully dissecting a cadaver in my first year when a friend shuffled up beside me......

    "can I ask you something" she asked, she took me aside. There are 200 people in a room the size of a school gym, all in white coats, goggles, gloves, all learning anatomy the best way there is.

    at this point we were a good month or so into med school....

    "my table are laughing at me" she said...... Already I knew it would be justified, she is an awesome and funny girl, but she would say the craziest things.

    "I asked them where the meat layer was!" Is the very sentence she said and I remind her of it whenever I can. Her shock at realising meat was the same red stuff we were cutting up, did not go down well with her, unlike my burger that lunchtime. (Its true that for some reason, dissection made us all very, very hungry, so we always went to get a pub meal after it- wierd I know.)

    so yeah, anything that we can digest with useful broken down parts is 'food for us' and likewise with other animals. But animals are NOT just our food source. They are equal to us, even if we don't treat them as such. Don't get me wrong, my burger was beef, but the reality is... A bullocks muscle and fat is no different to ours really.

    I know, i know,,,,''why cant we just eat humans then' .... Prion diseases. No animal can eat its own kind, because it screws your DNA up.
