Funny, that

This comment piece on the Guardian website is quite anti-vegetarian, but the response thread underneath makes for fascinating, if somewhat infuriating, reading. I was appalled that some people seem to honestly believe that animals have no consciousness. They countered arguments about the distress animals show in slaughterhouses by saying that animals are like machines, such as cars, that show signs of stress under too much pressure. Is it just me, or is that a ridiculous argument? Oh, and when asked about dogs, someone said that they just mimicked consciousness! These people are really out there.

The other point that really irked me was that any time a vegetarian defended their stance on the blog, they were labelled as humourless. I mean, what’s that about? Are we telling jokes or having a serious discussion. I mean, on the football blogs people are allowed serious debates with being described as humourless. Is eating animals less serious than football?
