He doesn't like it when I chew; strangely enough. lol

Anyway, better stop talking about this. Apparently I'm getting a reputation.

Seriously, inquiring minds want to know. If you are a vegetarian, can you swallow, you-know-what?

Not that I would anyway. Yuck.

I'm no vegetarian, but I'll go ahead and guess that it would be OK for them. Vegans on the other hand...probably not.

And if a Jewish vegetarian, what then?

There's the difference between love and like.

I've posed the question to fairly dedicated vegan friends before. The deciding factor is consent. Food animals are unable to give consent, whereas BJ recipients are generally on board with everything that is going to happen.

So...would a vegan eat human meat if they crashed in, say, the Andes Mountains, and a dying fellow traveler said it would be okay?

Thread drift: For me the amazing/impacting thing about the soccer team who crashed in the Andes was the fact that they walked out of there after 10 weeks of minimal food and that with the little energy they had left, they managed it, even though it took them 10 days. The eating dead bodies is barely a blip on my radar compared with the enormous physical feat that the two of them achieved. Their families and the families of those who died would have much preferred that at least some of them made it back, rather than all of them dying because they were breaking a social taboo. Having said that, I'm not sure if I would be able to in a similar situation.

Human beings surprise themselves every day with the wonderful, brutal, and horrific things they can do when there's no other choice.

Vegans should eat cum and breast milk in large quantities if they want to stay healthy.

footfootfoot · 11-28-2010, 12:44 AM

That's my chief objection to veganism as a moral eating choice. It is based on a hierarchy where the closer something resembles me the more value it has and the less it resembles me the less value it has.

I think what makes it the most suspect is that the moral outrage about killing is really a thinly veiled attempt at self validation.

Awesome.
