not completely true, in some parts of the world for thousands of years people havn't eaten meat. I concede to you that thousands is different to millions but it shows that vegetarianism has existed for a long time
The more I eat,the hungrier I get?

Not saying he's right, but you are the one who started the thread by saying you're 14 and only weigh 5 stone.

vegetarians can be obese
Be quiet monkey.
Prove it. The fact that vegetarians survive perfectly well gives me the impression that you don't need meat.
Prove it.
And what the hell as evolution got to do with anything? Are you seriously suggesting that continuing the evolution of our brain is a good reason for eating meat?
Eh?
They get ill and are weedy, while we meat-eaters are powerful and strong.
I know vegetarians who get protein injections and suffer from iron deficiencies. How natural is that?
I'm allergic to nuts, and won't change from being a vegetarian. I feel like I'm churning out problems by the bucktload now
Ps: how to get rid of said acne? panoxyl doesn't work that well
You might have already mentioned this, but what's your source of protein then? You need to be looking at eating pulses, beans and dairy products.

Wait, are we just posting unrelated health problems here? If so I know meat eaters who are lactose intolerent. I knew meat eaters who died of a heart attack. A bad diet can cause problems but that is rather different to eating a properly balanced diet.
Eat a healthy balanced diet and you should be fine or at least your problems are less likely to stem from diet than if you eat a more limited selection whether mainly meat based or from a very limited choice of vegetables. As for getting ill through a vegetarian diet, it is possible but then again it is equally as possible to get ill as an omnivore.
Neither diet is inherantly better but the point is that you need balance to be healthy. I'm vegetarian and have been since I was about 4 or 5 yet I'm probably one of the healthiest people I know, it hasn't stunted my growth as far as I'm aware - if it has then that is rather lucky, I've got enough problems with low door frames as it is.

many people do ,I did but I don't think killing a young pig or a little lamb just because it tastes nice is a good enough reason .
What if you discovered humans taste nice .If they had select humans bred just for eating would that be ok
Some places enjoy ,cats ,dogs ,horse,turtles would you be happy to eat them or is it just because most people your know eat the basic farm animals that you think its ok for you to do the same .

Quit the preaching! That's the one thing I bloody hate about you vegetarians, you're always preaching the moral high-ground. Well here's some news for you, I don't care! Nothing you say, or any of your brethren for that matter, will stop me from enjoying a tasty slice of dead animal flesh.
