Our diet of destruction

You ARE correct onechance. In the past I admit killing millions of animals! Working in slaughterhouses(cows,pigs,chickens,sheep,and all manner of wild game) You name it, I've killed it and ate it. These innocent creatures know they are about to die....imagine knowing your about to have YOUR throat cut...or a .22 bullet placed in your brain.....hearing their screams and cries. It's sad. For the scavengers who shop at a supermarket(scavenger is the word used because you don't kill it your yourself) ask your dentist if your teeth were designed to eat meat....and while your at it research why humans have 25 to 30 feet of intestines while carnivores have half that length....that's why I used the word insane......to feed a living body with a dead one.....wow. common sense. 99.9% of meat eaters would stop if they had to murder their own food!!!

cross refernce amazonian soya with modern slavery...

When we do our Bio-electrical screening in Salt Lake, it always shows soy as being bad for the body. I now use it sparingly. I don't want to be a human guinea pig yet again.

Maybe people in certain arrid regions of the world do not have a way to eat things rich enough in protein to survive, but I'm not talking to those people, they probably don't have computers anyway...

So, it's 2008, and most all people in the US at this point have the option:

Will they be destructive, or will they get with the times and make a sustainable choice?

For all those "I was born to eat flesh" people out there, check this out:

Also, I'll bet there's not even 1% of you that could actually look the animal in the eye that you EAT, and kill it. Because it's nicely packaged (and pumped FULL of hormones) in the store, you're A OK with it... Weird.

I think its an important issue too. That's why I voted it up. I don't think I need to rant on about everything. Sometimes are prefer to be sarcastic, and think even the serious subjects could be approached light-heartedly. And you know what, if I really didn't know about this, I still don't think I'd be lame. I come on Current to be informed because I don't know everything.

Neghie- Ignorance is bliss huh? Lame.

How anyone could feed their living body with a dead body is insane....but this is what happens when people allow corporations to profit on their insanity.

Proof?

Not to mention that corn/soy/etc are being grown to FEED TO CATTLE SO YOU CAN EAT BEEF!

So, STOP EATING BEEF (and all meat for that matter) or at least CUT DOWN if you absolutely have to eat it.

THANKS!

In this day and age we're still clearing out forests?

Read the article. Soya is NOT the problem.

Corporate control of political, financial and physical resources, an exclusive orientation to profit-sharing in global markets taking precedence over socially responsive economics and the nutritional health of the nation IS the problem.

from the article:

"Cargill, ADM, Bunge - that are little known in the UK. All three companies are now expanding in China and heavily involved in spreading the western industrialised diet, with its unsustainable dependence on fossil fuels and extravagant use of grains."

Dan Morgan's MERCHANTS OF GRAIN is an excellent resource for more info on these bastards.

Soya is one of the most water hungry plants on the planet - it takes 2000 litres of water for a kilo of soya. For a kilo of beef it takes 100,000 litres!! I don't think soya is our problem.

Soya is really bad if you are pregnant (and possible for men in general)
It stimulates Oestrogen production,
If pregnant with a male child, it reduces the amount of testosterone in the womb. which isn't good..
