Lance Posted September 20, 2005 Posted September 20, 2005 I think any vegans who attempt to evangelize a minor should be burned at the stake. Note: I realize the above is hypercritical in comparison to some of my other posts, but obviously hypocrisy is a large part of being an extremist.
Severian Posted September 20, 2005 Posted September 20, 2005 forgive my ignorance here' date=' but what exactly Is that?I`ve never heard that term before.[/quote'] Its someone who fervently goes about trying to convert people to atheism.
BobbyJoeCool Posted September 20, 2005 Posted September 20, 2005 Its someone who fervently goes about trying to convert people to atheism. Shudder
ElijahJones Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 Shudder Yeah, this thread seems to have gone from poking fun at our own extreme tendencies to some kind of whacko extremist mele (spelling?). Who cares if you eat vegetables or not? the only time eating an animal bothers me is if I know it personally. That's why I don't eat dog, I know how close a person can be to a dog. I suppose if I had a child and we were raising pigs and the day came to make some pork chops and my kids said "Daddy, that pigs my friend!" I would understand. But it would not stop me from raising pigs and eating pork chops. I like the quote of the pelican in 'Finding Nemo'. He meats Nemo and apologizes if he ever tried to eat him and says 'Sorry if I ever took a snap at you. You know fish gotta swim, birds gotta eat.' Jim Crow? What?
imasmartgirl Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 - In conversation I happened to mention that am a supporter of the animal rights community' date=' and that I consider the killing of sentient animal to be no different than the killing of a human being. Apparently, that and PETA donations make me an extremist. And maybe once or twice I might have said "fur is murder".[/quote'] did you know that PETA kills animals? http://www.petakillsanimals.com/
In My Memory Posted September 26, 2005 Author Posted September 26, 2005 imasmartgirl, did you know that PETA kills animals? [url']http://www.petakillsanimals.com/[/url] Yes I did. See this post I wrote on the subject some time ago. PETA makes a point about euthanizing animals painlessly, because while other organizations have similar programs they are inhumane about it. When I worked for a nearby Human Society a few winters ago, I found a dead dog that had apparently frozen to death - the HS owner said that the dog had a terminal illness called "parvo", so he tossed the dog in the snow to freeze to death. It was very sad, it would have been better to euthanize painlessly. So thats the difference between PETA and non-PETA euthanization programs.
flyboy Posted September 28, 2005 Posted September 28, 2005 Hmmm' date=' lets see if I can bring out the extremist in you? Choose any of the following strongly agree with or strongly oppose (divided by color as loonie lefty, radical right, and neither): - All guns ought to be elimated from the planet! - Homosexuality should be a federal crime! - All drug users should be mandatorily sterilized! - Death penalty should be option for all crimes! - The ACLU is a terrorist organization! - Everything IMM says is the gospel truth! - Woman shouldnt work in the military or office! - Hospitals shouldnt be treat the poor! - People who develop cancers from smoking should not be treated! - HIV/AIDS is God's punishment against the homosexuals! - Immigrants should be deported or thrown in prison! - Abortion doctors should be put to death! - Government is an unnecessary evil! - Taxes are a form of theft! - Michael Moore for president! - Voluntarily childless couples are evil and selfish! - Legal drugs! All of them! - Socialize medicine! - Israel, as we know it, should have never been created and ought to disappear! - Nuke the Middle East! - Yay monarchy! - Laws against child pornography are mind-control! - Censor obscene material on TV, radio, and Internet! - Free public education for everyone! - I see nothing on this list to disagree with! im goin to have to strongly disagree with the guns thing mainly becuase guns and hunting are sooooo much fun! plus if theyre was a law about it i would not listen to it at all and go about my daily business,not my fualt if someone gets in my way and gets shot. its just like the proabition with alchahol and i also think we should nuke the middle east
