This makes me think that there’s still hope for humanity.

i-eat-green-things:

I don’t understand people.
I think I never, ever, will.

i-eat-green-things:

This is acctually a very good sign.
If the lamb was a chicken and the pig was a cow
I would totally cover a McDonalds with this picture.
I also think that IF people would have to kill their meat
today, in this society we live in, the majority of people
WOULD be vegetarians. I am acctually very sure about this.
But since I am vegan I must say;

Be sure to take absolute stand against animal cruelty
and become vegan.

Oh man, this picture have a very strong message.

This fucking picture. Love it! ‘Til I die. <3

Let’s compare the bodies of humans and herbivores to the bodies of carnivores and omnivores. First, the length of intestine in humans and other herbivores falls somewhere between 7 and 13 times the length of the trunk/torso section of the body. In contrast, the length of intestine in carnivores and omnivores is only 3 to 6 times the length of the trunk/torso. (The length of trunk or torso is used as the means of comparison rather than overall body length or height because humans are bipedal animals whereas most nonhuman animals are quadrupeds.) Moreover, the interior surface of human intestines is rather heavily fluted and striated, whereas the interior intestinal surfaces of carnivorous and omnivorous animals tend to be smooth in comparison. The relatively short intestinal length in carnivores and omnivores, along with the relatively smooth interior surface, allow rotting animal flesh, animal protein, cholesterol and saturated fat to pass through quickly; that is why it’s impossible for any real carnivore or omnivore to get clogged arteries. Clogged arteries, however, kills 50 percent of all meat-eating humans!

Dr. William Castelli, director of the Framingham Heart Study, supports the aforementioned findings with additional claims about human cancer rates dropping 60 percent if people stopped eating meat, cheese, milk and eggs.

Humans and other herbivores have carbohydrate digestive enzymes in their saliva, meaning our bodies were created for fruits and vegetables. Animal products have no complex carbohydrates, which is why carnivores and omnivores lack carbohydrate digestive enzymes in their saliva. Human teeth are broad, short, blunt, flat and spade-shaped like the teeth of other herbivores, not the fanged-mouths of carnivores and omnivores. Herbivores have canines, incisors and molars, which are used for ripping rough fruits like apples and carrots, or nuts.

If your lower jaw moves from side to side—and you grind and chew your food—then you are an herbivore. The jaws of carnivores and omnivores only move up and down, vertically. They don’t chew, just rip and swallow. Humans sweat through their pores to cool down. They don’t pant like dogs, cats or lions. There are no claws on the human hand, although claws are a trademark of the carnivore and the omnivore.

When we drive down the highway and spot a dead animal on the side of the road, I’m quite sure people don’t get excited, start to salivate, come to a screeching halt, jump out of the car, scare the crows away and start munching directly on the dead animal. Real carnivores and omnivores eat dead animals on the side of the road. We always cook meat before eating it, even though lions don’t have gazelle barbeques in the jungles of Tanzania. All carnivores and omnivores eat bloody, raw, bacteria-laden flesh right from the bone. This includes the eyes, nose, face, toes, tail, anus, inner organs, blood and the fur. Humans have to cook specific parts of the dismembered animal so we don’t become violently ill. We also don’t possess the Ph balance in our stomach to break down raw, bacteria-laden flesh.

To prove beyond a reasonable doubt that humans are herbivores, remember the two-year-old in the crib with the bunny rabbit and the apple comment in the opening ethics section? Understand humans have no carnivorous or omnivorous instincts whatsoever when we’re born and growing up. There isn’t a speck of carnivorism nor an iota of omnivorism in us. We acquire a taste for animal products after they’re forced down our throats during childhood.

I can also expose the carnivore/omnivore lie by examining how each society, culture, race, religion and ethnicity justifies eating certain animals because they like some animals and dislike others, acquiring a taste for some and an aversion to others. These discriminatory discrepancies wreak of fake carnivorism/omnivorism.

If people from all walks of life ever sat down together for a meal, veganism is the only meal that would not offend anyone. At this table of peace, Americans would say, “We’re not eating dogs, cats and horses, right?” Muslims and Orthodox Jews would say, “You’re not feeding us pork, tonight?” Indians sit down and say, “We’re not eating beef, right?” Cows are sacred animals in India. Seventh Day Adventists, Buddhists, Hindus, Jains and Rastafarians would take out all the other animal products because all are vegetarian, with most being vegan. Atheist vegans take out any other animal product you might think of. The only thing left to eat that everybody could agree upon would be stir-fried tofu or some other vegan meal.

If humans want to be ethical creatures, then we have to be ethical to other species even if they don’t have the mental capacity to return morality to us. We already act ethically towards humans who are incapable of understanding ethics and returning morality, so this isn’t even a radical stretch. Human babies don’t understand ethics. Most severely mentally retarded people don’t understand ethics. But that doesn’t give us the right to act unethically, immorally and violently toward them, does it? So even if animals don’t understand ethics and cannot return morality, the onus falls on us to do the right thing and extend some simple decency, kindness and compassion to them.

They should start selling meat like this.
Only then will people _understand_ that their meat was once a living creature.
