So there's this girl on my Facebook who posted this status:
"You can't love animals & eat them too."
Okay, before everyone HATES ME for saying this, let me just say, I RESPECT EVERYONE'S OPINION ON ANYTHING! But sometimes, people's opinions are based on arrogance, stupidity, & just plain dumb "facts." So, therefore, I respect their opinion but they're wrong & I hate them.
Anyway, this girl posted this status & I'm thinking, "Yes, you can love animals & eat them too. What about cows? & Chickens? & Pigs?"
Someone was like, "We are animals are selves. Lions eat gazelles; we eat pigs. It's life. It's how it's been for a long time. We are hunters & we are gatherers." (Something along those lines, those quotation marks mean nothing to state what they really said lol)
But then the person who posted the status & some other people were like, "But we've evolved & we can make other food for ourselves instead of going out & killing animals & we have other resources & we can eat plants." Blah, blah, blah.
I respect your opinion but you're stupid & I hate you.
I'm sorry, I like my steak. I like my bacon. I like my hamburgers. I like my chicken.
Don't get me wrong, I don't hate vegans or vegetarians. I have a friend who is a vegetarian. & I completely respect her side. She can have her veggies, I'll eat my meat. But she's never tried imposing her side onto me & I like that. I respect that. I respect her. But when it goes to the point where someone is trying to convert you to their side, that is when I hate you. Like, the people on the status are all, "Don't eat meat, it's so bad, it's so inhumane, those poor animals are dying, you must endorse animal cruelty if you eat meat, turn vegetarian." & I think I read something about someone saying they were going to turn vegetarian because of this? I don't know. But c'mon, please don't go telling me that what I'm doing is wrong when millions of people in the world do it. I understand your point of view, I understand that we do have other alternatives like eating stupid salads & carrots & acting like little rabbits eating spinach & stuff, but I like to eat meat. I eat veggies too but I have meat in my diet also.
That's like someone who is Catholic trying to tell someone who is Atheist that they are wrong & that they should convert. Catholics believe in God, Atheists obviously don't. That's their choice. I believe in God but I am not going to tell some Atheist that they are stupid & wrong & they should convert to Catholicism because there IS a God & if they don't believe, they're going to Hell. (Okay, actually, I might think they're wrong & I hate them but it's just funny, shut up lol) Besides, if an Atheist believes in no God & Heaven, what makes you think he believes in Hell? Yea. Consider that.
Seriously though, respect everyone's opinion. (I understand I contradict myself by saying "I respect everyone's opinion but they're wrong & I hate them" but c'mon, it's funny & it's my opinion so SHUT UP) But seriously, respect everyone's opinion. It's called an opinion for a reason. Otherwise, it'd be called a fact. Facts are... Facts. Opinions are just that, opinions. Everyone has one. None are officially correct. Facts are correct. Facts are real & you cannot dispute them. You can dispute opinions.
No, but seriously though, RESPECT EVERYONE'S FUCKING OPINION.
The end. (This post totally went off topic, I think.)
