Re: The J-Word (A Thread That Shall Explode in Wank, Just Watch)

Your friend should probably eat meat, then. We aren't in a position right now to provide completely for everyone's nutritional needs outside of meat.

But the statement "we're better off being omnivores" implies that everyone should be an omnivore. I disagree; plenty of people have diets without meat and are perfectly healthy.

Are we required to maintain an omnivorous diet in order to survive, when we have access to all our knowledge about nutrition, farming and transportation bringing us a wide variety of foods, and dietary supplements? That's a resounding NO. Plenty of vegetarians and vegans exist who are healthy and don't drop dead from lack of meat/animal products.

This statement of yours implied we should all be vegetarians and vegans because we don't need meat products to survive, which I objected to. Also, there are many parts of the world where people historically live or lived on pure carnivorous diets because farming and plantlife isn't possible. The arctic is an example. If anything, I'd say it's vegetables that are not an essential part of our diet.

"Until the day we can manufacture all our essential nutrients in such a state that they are readily absorbed by our bodies and without costing an arm and a leg to buy, we're better off being omnivores than pure vegetarians." Does this make it clearer what I meant? Meat products with the right nutrients are easier to absorb than supplements and pills. Education and knowledge are moot point unless the right foods are available. If you can afford being a healthy vegetarian, all the power to you. Don't judge the rest of us who can't afford to live up to your vegetarian ideals.

Your stance seemed at first to imply that we all needed to eat meat, which is what I was objecting to. You're still kind of implying that when you say "we're better off being omnivores". And I wasn't judging anyone. And I wasn't judging anyone - I'm not sure where that came across. I'm just discussing the science behind all this.
