PETA do it again...

Post by Sothis »

Lately PETA seem determined to anger religious communities across the world. First there was their holocaust stunt, comparing the treatment of battery chickens to the deaths of millions of Jews in World War 2, now this:

I know that most of the people here aren't religious, but still, you have to agree that PETA are digging a bigger hole for themselves?

Yeah, Jesus was a vegetarian. Who cares if he was depicted eating fish? Of course, PETA can't let facts get in their way.

The more the PETA does this, the faster they pile the dirt over their heads in their graves. So isn't it better for the world that PETA make even bigger fools of themselves at each step?

Yes, it is.

The natural habitat for facts is the debate. Sadly, thanks to organizations like PETA, they are rapidly disapearing from debates all over the world. For the few facts that remain, they are horrendously abused by PETA.

Thanks to the disapearence of facts, this has lead to a population explosion of anecdotal evidence and unsubtantiated claims.

I eat meat, and yes I'm cruel to animals. AND I LIKE IT! Because I'm an actual human who is fully aware of the natural order of things.

PETA fucktards.

I`ve thought about it and PETA members and other vegetarians are saying they will never eat anything that came from an animal,they do not realised they are eating some,they forgot what is used to grow vegetables. :lol:

No matter what the argument, one is able to make a vegetarian cough and sputter by saying "You know, human beings are naturally omnivorous."

Nature? Of course PETA isn't exactly a group that understands what nature is. Didn't one of their members get mauled after trying to keep a bear from eating a fish?

Good, there are a lot of the morons and we need a place for the bodies...

The only thing I like about PETA is that they've become extreme enough that no one likes them and you can openly bash them.

Eek! "Prince of peas"? Golly-frickin rummng firk-ding-blast...

Can you tell I don't like that ad much? I'm definitely asking my friends in Pensacola if they know anything more. He ate meat. As the article said, lamb was traditional at every Passover Seder, and the Feeding of the Five Thousand was a meal of bread and fish. Bloody idiots (pun intended).

The only thing I like PETA for is those naked celebrity photos they did to try to get people to not wear fur or eat meat. :D

Which reminds me: Are there any celebrities out there that aren't animal rights wackos? How come you don't see any famous people announcing tiher support for animal research while eating a hamburger?
