    Yeah it has nothing to do with our bodies being used to cooked meat from generation after generation eating it cooked. :rolleyes:

    I myself eat RAW meat on occassion, that also takes your point and blows it out of the water a bit doesn't it?

    The point I was trying to make was can you go out into the wild and bite straight into a deer like every single other omnivore? How about biting into a chicken? Tastes good, right?

    The raw you eat is still refined and cleaned. Looks like I just blew your point out of the water...

    LOL, you don't think man never did?

    So we always had 'ovens' and 'fire'

    Sorry but you didn't blow any point anywhere, better luck next time. ;)

    ----
    Dogs for instance certainly used to eat like you claim, domesticated ones however normally do not. This does not mean they can not, simply after generations of being domesticated they no longer do.

    When humans were primitive, they were vegetarian... Only recently (few thousand years ago) did humans start eating meat, cooked over an outdoor fire...

    Dogs ARE omnivores though, canine teeth, claws, etc... What's your point?

    You know what's funny? About the only sources claiming what you are above is 'vegetarian' sites, I wonder why that is?

    Other sources state very clearly man has eaten meat, and yes it was in fact raw..

    Men have been eating meat ever since they began to exist. Even if not, who cares? We were not really meant to go to war either but that doesn't stop us, does it?

    At this time, I'd like to point you all to: http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=grill

    Yes, it is just one man's opinion but read it completely. Also read PETA's (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) reaction to the article.

    We have four canine teeth, but the majority are flat (in the front) and the back are molars for chewing. We don't rip into our food like omnivores do...

    Obviously the veggie sites are the ones supporting vegetarians, it's common sense.

    What do you mean we weren't meant to go to war? Where is your scientific proof? What I'm saying about vegetarians isn't pulled out of my ass.

    You shouldn't steal from people right, but people do it anyway. Does that mean we should just say the hell with it and follow?

    No, I'm saying there's more important things to bitch about. Besides, as you can see from the article I've linked to, vegetarians are just as responsible for animal deaths as meat eaters.

    I don't eat much meat so I might as well be a vegetarian. But I'm not.
