Thanks for explaining! I didn't get it.

Hindus believe that their ancestors are reincarnated as cows

Not exactly. Hindus believe in reincarnation. . . life is eternal. A few believe in "transmigration" where a human soul can return in an animal. But, Hinduism is a religion that came about during the Age of Taurus (the Bull) and, therefore, the cow is sacred. You'll also see signs of other religions from the Age of Taurus in the Bible (the Fatted Calf).

I do not know, my friend, it was an arranged marriage!

Sorry, im limited by my choices of meme comments...

I'm 61 years old living in the forest 20 miles from the nearest town and 80 miles from the nearest WalMart or McDonalds. NO Cell service. NO TV. $90 a month for Satellite Internet with limited bandwidth and speed. But I get by with using IMGFLIP on my iPad.

Why? There is entire list of templates plus you can upload your own.

My phone wont let me use anything but what is shown... From boromir to aaand its gone, it sucks!

Looks like you're starting to get into it so time to start learning. I'm about ten years older than you.

Ah. Get laptop or desktop

I need to, just not that into tech stuff, cant justify the cost...

I'm using a IPad 1 iOS 5.1.1 it's in good shape but slowly it's getting worse in the system

you can get a refurbished or used computer cheaper than most phones

Yeah, but in my area you cant get internet without t.v. and phone bundled together, around a hundred bucks a month!

see if your phone carrier has a "hot spot" for wi-fi

Honestly, im not sure what that means, im kinda new to all this stuff... Ive just been looking around and listening to others to try and figure out what im doing...

lol, you're a bit behind the times. Ask you carrier about using your phone as a hot spot for Wi-Fi for your home computer. You can also get one from Wal Mart but it will cost for data. Who is your carrier?

Oh hell! Im still in the stone age when it comes to technology... This is actually my first "smart" phone, i only got it cuz' it was cheaper than my old flip phone plan!

You can use Add Image to put any other image from the site into your image, and then drag the corners so it fills the whole thing. If you choose one that's roughly the same dimensions, it comes out alright.

Plus, if you think outside the box, you can do a lot with the standard templates! If you look back through Invicta103's older submissions, you'll see he used to use the same 5 or 6 templates over and over for just about all his memes and comment replies - somehow he made it work.

Hope you don't mind the tip!

How old are you?

Its embarrassing, but, like i said, im just not into tech stuff...

You are warped...which I think is why I like you. And why I made this awhile ago. imgflip.com/i/11uhiz

bravely going were no man should have gone before :)

OMG--funny!!!

tnx

its fun to have fun :)

Animals kill animals too. Of course we should lay back on the meat consumption if only for the reason that an excessive amount is unhealthy, and a partial reason for the obesity rate. Moderation in all things. But eating anything is going to involve killing (even plants) or harvesting (ie. unfertilized chicken eggs) unless you can do photosynthesis.

To be honest I would say that eating animals isn't really natural; none of the way people get meat, hunt or farm animals is in any way natural it's so far removed from natural that if they had to kill animals themselves they would not be able to.

Second biologically people don't do well on eating animals it causes a lot of health problems suggesting it's relatively new to our biology meaning it's done purely out of survival when no other source of food could be found.

Define "natural". Sure as hell looks natural to me when I see a vulture eating a dead raccoon on the highway. Nature IS violent. Animals are violent. This world, like it or not, is a violent place. My parents had two sheep a couple years back. One of them killed the other from butting heads too many times. When two dogs meet for the first time, they size each other up to see who's Boss. If neither one will give way, they fight. If left uninterrupted, they may fight to the death. That, my friend, is nature.

Also animals are neither innocent nor guilty - I have never killed an innocent animal. Nor have I ever killed a guilty one. I have simply killed animals. If an animal kills a human, it is not guilty. Nor is it innocent. It simply IS. If you wish to lower yourself to the level of animals, you are saying there is no right or wrong, there is only "might makes right". Which is exactly how animals behave. By which you have made yourself, in effect, your own god, since you may decide what is right or wrong for yourself.

On the other hand if you try to raise animals to the level of humans, what about all those ants you step on or the flies you swat? By that reasoning you're a murderer every day, countless times over. So, you may be the first one to stop moving to avoid injuring any more ants.

I'm guessing by your commentary that you're an evolutionist. If so, remember this: if you ever chance to encounter a grizzly bear in a hungry mood, you're first on the menu. Point being, an animal has no sense of right or wrong. It doesn't care that you didn't do anything to it, all it knows is that it is hungry, and you look like lunch. Darwin's own hypothesis of evolution propounds "survival of the fittest". Animals kill to survive. The weak die, the strong live and feed on the weak. They won't stop, even if we do.

Now I believe I'll have a steak. And the next time a mosquito bites you, don't slap it. It's just trying to live - I suggest you teach it to drink nectar from flowers instead.

lol

1- "Sure as hell looks natural to me when I see a vulture eating a dead raccoon on the highway. Nature IS violent. Animals are violent." --- So if you like meat, why you don't stop to eat the racoon? also if cow, pig, chicken, horse and fish are violent animal, why we continue to bred them? we should stop if they are dangerous. To use "nature" as a reason to harm animals is to arbitrarily choose one thing that you deem to be natural, and then do it, whilst ignoring all the other natural things you don't do, and ignoring all the clearly unnatural things you do.

2- "I have never killed an innocent animal. Nor have I ever killed a guilty one. I have simply killed animals" / "By which you have made yourself, in effect, your own god, since you may decide what is right or wrong for yourself." --- It's not just a matter of whether it's right or wrong, it's a matter of not wanting to deprive them of their lives or make them suffer. This is a bit like saying criminals will be criminals no point doing anything about it. Meat is a business, and only exists because there is demand for it. The more demand there is, the more animals are bred and killed.

3- " what about all those ants you step on or the flies you swat?" --- Inevitably, we will step on insects- vegans and non-vegans. That does not justify also harming other unrelated animals which you could clearly avoid doing, vegans avoid stepping on insects as far as possible. There's so many spiders in my house... i hate spiders but i can't come to kill them.

4- " if you ever chance to encounter a grizzly bear in a hungry mood, you're first on the menu." --- If my life is in danger, I do not care whether a human or an animal, I will defend myself. Livestock animals are herbivorous and are in captivity, and represent no threat to you whatsoever.

5- " Darwin's own hypothesis of evolution propounds "survival of the fittest"." --- Just because we have the ability to kill any animal, doesn't mean that we should. There is no actual need to harm animals in modern society. No animal wants to give away years of their life to end up on a dinner plate for 15min because you think that human are better than animal.

Can't decide if you're a troll or if you actually believe what you're saying. If you're a troll, good job.

Vultures have a very high internal temperature that helps kill dangerous bacteria. That coon would kill me - doesn't faze a vulture.

Also raccoon is very greasy meat. Or so I am told. I am not talking about harming animals. I am talking about eating them.

You want to stop breeding certain animals - you apparently don't realize how fragile an ecosystem really is. Remove one species and the whole balance can change. Yes, that goes for EVERY species. Even the gnats and flies. And livestock, including cows and pigs. You also don't realize just how badly and how immediately that would cripple the economy.

I gladly help create demand for meat. I like meat. I eat meat. Good luck stopping me. Nor am I sadistic; I don't enjoy making animals suffer. So I kill as quickly as possible so they do not feel pain. And then I eat them. I like my beef medium rare, with potatoes and green beans on the side.

Hmm. Spiders are meat-eaters. They capture flies and other insects, then literally suck the life out of them. You can't even defend the poor flies from such a monstrous creature? Spiders don't kill quickly or humanely - they paralyze their victim, then eat them alive. A quick broom swipe and the spider is dead instantly, never to brutally murder another poor fly again. Isn't that the lesser of two evils (since now we're apparently using that argument)?

Nope. Livestock don't pose much of a threat. But they taste good. I'd love a hamburger right about now.

"No animal wants..." No animal "wants" anything. They cannot quantify "want", except so far as to want another meal or to reproduce. Instinctual actions. And yes, I do think humans are better than animals. Humans are a higher form of life. Animals act on instinct. They don't think "hmm, I wonder what's going to happen to me three years from now when I leave this pasture and go to college". No one represents a horse in court because the horse didn't like being saddled. Animals are not humans nor equal to them. You think animals are equal to humans? Very well; better give your dog its own bedroom, bathroom, and bank account. Since, after all, it's equal to you. In fact you can't even call yourself its owner, since that would make the dog your slave. If your dog would like a lawyer, I shall be more than happy to direct him to the yellow pages.

Like I say before,

as a vegan you always have to take extra care in order to not come across as arrogant, because people will hold anything they can against you. They want to stick to their current beliefs so bad, they'll try to invalidate your arguments in every possible way. Often, the vegan isn't aggressive at all, but the meat eater simply feels offended by the mere presence of a vegan. If you're trying to give factual and rational arguments, it's played down as 'personal opinion', 'propaganda' or 'you think you're better than me'. It's so frustrating. Apparently, the only way to be a 'good vegan' is to shut up about veganism entirely. As soon as someone gets the feeling you're trying to tell them about veganism, they shut down completely. It's not the vegan who just uses the wrong words, it's the meat eater who doesn't want to listen. I don't think there is any truly effective way of getting through to someone who doesn't want to question their lifestyle, ever.

and then even if you're polite they'll call you stupid or say you aren't trying hard enough. I posted some sources on the environmental impact of animal agriculture and all I get are insults and 'you're wrong' without so much as a citation because 'everyone who's intelligent enough knows this'. People went as far as suggesting that soy is not harvested in the rain forest, that it's mainly used for oil and not for animal feeding, and that you don't need ~10kg of grain to gain 1kg of meat. Just straight up denying the facts. Well, what is there left for me to say?

But seriously. I don't care what you do or don't eat. It's the vegans that try to convince other people that they're bad because they eat meat. It's healthier, yes, to eat more vegetables and grains, but you shouldn't go around trying to change the subject of the conversation to morality. Is it moral to eat meat? Well that's where the real debate is, and that's why vegans are so irritating. If it's health based, then go right ahead and tell a fat guy to stop eating unhealthily. If everyone would stop eating McDonalds every day for lunch, then I'm sure both sides (vegans and people who eat meat) would be happier with the outcome. Less animal cruelty, and less obesity. Win-win. But you still have to let them eat some meat or else the other people aren't free to act according to their own beliefs on the matter.

:) I think that if you think that all of your choice are the best thing for everyone it's ok. Do your best to be the best that it... right ;)

6- "They won't stop, even if we do." --- Most people don't want to be vegan. Most people just don't care. It's not because they're struggling and failing, they haven't even tried. "If I can't do it 100% why bother?" by this logic we may never obtain true unemployment/equality of races and sexes so why both doing anything on these issues?

7- "Now I believe I'll have a steak." --- By saying this, you're claiming that life is disposable to you as long as you enjoy the taste of the dead body. That surely is not sound reasoning, if you claim to have any consideration for the victim. Someone finding your dog tasty would not justify them killing your dog.

8- " And the next time a mosquito bites you, don't slap it. It's just trying to live - I suggest you teach it to drink nectar from flowers instead." ---What other people or animal are doing does not justify what you are responsible for. The whole world is unlikely to be rid of homophobia, racism and sexism. That is not a reason for you to be a homophobic, racist or sexist. The fact that a mosquito need to bite you to survive doesn't mean you should copy them.

:) hope my answer will help you to understand what vegan mean.

I do believe that a diet should be based mainly on grains and plants. I'm not saying you're wrong. But a little bit of meat is actually healthy when well prepared. What's worse, killing a plant or killing an animal? They're both living.
Ranching** (not farming, which is dealing with plants) is necessary with the amount of people on the earth, but I do think we produce and consume way too much, causing conditions in ranches to be very inhumane. I'm on the side of downsizing them, but the public needs to be in agreement. I would also argue that it's processed foods in general that cause health problems. Eating meat is natural, but eating processed meat and other foods is not natural, and all the trans fats don't do well in our stomachs.

So you say they are no difference between a plant and animal because they're both living... tell me more about how you pet your cauliflower

Plants are just as alive as animals. Secondly, plants have a brain they have a hive mind. If one plant in a group starts to die the other plants will share its nutrients with the dying plant. Furthermore, weeds take nutrients from other plants selfishly almost like a carnivorous act. Such as a venous fly trap, a carnivorous plant. One last thing, I'm not sure if you believe in God but he put these animals on earth for us to eat. God told Jesus where the fishermen could throw their nets to catch fish. Not to mention God told Adam and Eve to skin animals and use their leathers for clothing when they had to leave the garden of eden. I do think there are other ways to obtain the meat in more humane ways but eating meat is as natural act as any. Even the natives believed in killing animals as long as they used every part.

we're not stupid enough to become vegan. we are NOT going to now go home and stop being annoying.

:) Since you have no more debate points, I assume we've reached the end of this discussion?
