Why Is It Ok To Eat Rare Beef

[saintpeter48]

..... but not ok to eat rare pork, chicken etc?

//I know it’s none of my business, being vegetarian, but I’d say it’s NEVER right to eat your fellow animals, cooked or raw.//

If God did not intend for us to eat animals he wouldn't have made them from meat, would he? :-)

Humans are omnivores. Their digestive systems are designed to process meat.

It doesn't seem to (or didn't)....actually as I understand it, the samonella is on the outside of the chicken so maybe not as risky as it sounds.

AuntPollyGrey "Woofgang what does raw chicken taste like (please don't say 'chicken ) :-)"

APG none of the group risked it. We were joining a crude oil supertanker next day entailing an early start and a journey by minibus then a longish ride on the agent's launch....not a good time to play silly devils with one's digestion!

I eat a lot of raw bee and its never done moo any harm!

If I didn't already know that Judge was no Judge (think Ethelred the Unready for a similarly named imposter), then 'judgments' like that quoted above would convince me that I was right.

If God hadn't intended us to fire bullets, he wouldn't have given us lead, would he?

Allen; it's really a waste of time arguing with meat eaters. They don't get it. "I like meat, so I'll eat it." They don't empathise with non-human entities - they're not human, so they don't mind being bred and killed.

Beef isn't rare. There is loads of it in the fields up here. All different colours too. Black, Brown, Black n White, Brown n White, some of it almost nearly White. Moo. Loads Sheep as well so Lamb will not be rare any time soon. No Unicorns though. They are really rare.

Or made them taste so nice.

He didn't make bullets. Our teeth, eyes, digestive system, all suggest we are designed to eat meat. I don't condone cruelty in the process, but we breed animals, because we are meant to eat meat.
