Getting meat involves killing animals, but it doesn't constitute murder. Or at least it doesn't have to.

I acknowledge the fact that many companies at present kill animals inhumanely in order to harvest meat from them, but this is not always the case, and so I'm not going to label all killings as inhumane. There are fast, painless or nearly painless ways of doing this and they have been practiced for many years by a number of people.

Eating meat is also natural; the human body is omnivorous and able to eat both vegetation and meat, which means that there is a reason for the killing which (assuming it is done humanely) can justify it.

I don't think there's anything wrong with eating meat, but I do believe they need to impose stricter regulations regarding the treatment of these animals. The fact is that many people enjoy meat, regardless of the opinions of many vegetarians, and the most anyone can hope to change in this industry is to slightly lower the amount of meat consumed and the treatment of the animals up to and including the slaughter.

This is a brilliant statement, and I have to agree with you on this.

I'm straight and currently have no defined religion (only one born of personal beliefs that has no name) but I don't see the problem with same sex marriage. For this, I use the same philosophy as in every part of my life: If what someone is doing doesn't hurt anyone else, they can keep doing it. Gay marriage isn't exactly killing anyone, people should put their effort into issues that actually matter instead of denying happy couples their right to be legally married.

I believe people have two fundamental rights relating to this issue:

The right to self expression and personal views/ideas.

The right to be secure physically and emotionally.

If someone gets married -gay or straight-, they are expression their personal ideas. This is their RIGHT in Canada and the United States, at the very least. Marriage is a legal thing between two people, and the only part of it that says it has to be man and a woman lies in religion- which is based on ideas founded centuries ago when women were considered objects anyway, and thus fundamentally flawed and not viable as the final word.

If you are telling them that they are not allowed to get married, you are first of all denying them their right to express their ideas by saying it's not allowed, and secondly denying them their emotional security because you're descriminating.

FINALLY. What does it matter to you if a gay couple gets married? Is it hurting you? No. Is it denying you the ability to say you don't like it? No. Is it infringing on those two rights for you? No. You can disagree with it, but that doesn't mean you should have the right to say it's not allowed at all!

There's no logical reason to say it isn't allowed.

Nope. =3 If I mess up I just take it like any stubborn Internet addict: pretend everyone ganged up on me and try again.

Not seriously though. It's kind of important to learn from others, even on the net. Especially so if the other person is actually literate and doesn't use chat-speak; because then it's plausible to assume they have a brain.
