    Humans are not herbivores. There are a lot of good social and ethical reasons to not eat meat, this is not one of them.

      Humans may not be obligate herbivores ; nonetheless eating meat invariably hurts us in the short and long term.

      Meet is like alcohol, you can get your calories from booze ; but why would you inflict that upon yourself ?

      Eating meat is only deleterious. You may be able to stave off the visible consequences for a while, but make no mistake, it is eating you from the inside.

      We were not meant to feed upon murder.

      Proof ? Vegans are the only human group to be consistently healthy and long lived. We are exempt from many illnesses considered nigh-inevitable, even when genetically predisposed.
