Cannibalism is ok.

Atleast according to PETA now.

PETA has done it again by supporting the German cannibalist who ate the computer science dude since eating animals is just like eating a human. This isn't the only wacky thing they've said recently but it sure is a high ranker. I think the chicken holocaust one was better though. What a tasty holocaust that is...

[DeathBug]

[color=indigo][font=century][size=1]I'd just like to start out by saying that I think inhumane treatment of animals is wrong, and morally repulsive. I am not a vegetarian or a vegan, but I believe that if you're going to end or endanger an animal's life, it should be for a damn good reason, and as humane as possible.

That said, PETA is the most ****ed up organization I've ever encountered.

Seriously, what's going on with these people? Perhaps they're just ultra-protective of the hamsters that must live in their heads, but still, some of the things they say and promote are repulsive.

Occassionally I wonder if PETA-people have children. I ask that because the thought of a parent equating their child to an animal creeps me out no end. These people are simply daft in the head.

This is rediculous! I think that killing animals and **** shouldn't be done too much, but I mean they are our food source. The fact that people eating themselves is just so ***** stupid. Were not animals! That German...and PETA..they seriously need to get a new hobby, cuz there not gonna make a fucken change!
Ya thats my point of view...

I get what your sayin though. It is stupid I bet they wouldn't feel that way if they were geting attacked by a cannibal. I like animals and all and Don't like to kill them (except for mice I hate mice) But people eating people its just not right. I was watching a show on that last night it was disturbing. People don't eat people well at least sain people don't eat people. Unless in some cases where people had to force them selfs to eat people or die according to the show I saw. The people in the PETA might be cannibals them selfs for all we know or out of their minds. Basicly its just nasty and should never be attempted.

[Xyandar]

Ok Cannibalism is just WRONG! I hate everyone who is lol. I am agreeing that eating animals and endangering their lives is really bad, but seriously, do you know how much Chickens Reproduce? Same with all the other bird wildlife. I understand about cows, they don't reproduce alot unless....wellll.... lets not get into that but still they are our food source. The PETA is just plain sick if they are saying Cannibalism is alright.

Also I wanna add... Nut you did a good job with *'ing the words but you missed one. Might want to change it:P

[font=tahoma][size=1]Do you have any idea how much humans reproduce?

Aside from that, I don't agree with the PETA's support at all, regardless of what I just said. Some animals are herbivorous, some are cornivorous, and some are omnivorous. We just happen to be omnivores, and eating another animal is just... well, natural I suppose...

However, cannibalism occurs in desperate situations, IE, during starvation periods. I'm not sure about the conditions of this matter, however.[/font][/size]

[Semjaza]

Human reproduction levels are [i]nowhere[/i] near what a chicken can do in its lifespan... and chickens don't even live as long as we do.

In any case, I remember reading that they had video of this guy eating the volunteer (the guy wanted to be eaten and apparently many others did too -- ick). I want to see it just out of morbid curiousity, although I'm sure I'd not actually play it if I ever got my hands on it lol.

PETA is pretty much insane and I'm never surprised by the shock tactics they pull. A few months back they were distributing a book to children about how evil mothers were that wore fur... with nice, graphic photos of the violence involved.

Actually, I'm surprised it took them till January 3rd to comment on it.

[Transtic Nerve]

If this surprises you from PETA, well you don't know PETA very well.

I like PETA... I think they are funny yet not afraid to go to the extreme to get their point across. I may not agree with some things they do or all of them for that matter, but I still like em.

[Boba Fett]

[color=green]PETA has always been one of the most radical special interests groups out there. I?d shudder to think what?d happen if people actually listened to their odd message. I understand that they are trying to influence people?s opinions towards eating animal products, but advocating cannibalism over eating cows is just yet another of their backfiring shock tactics. Seriously, when was the last time you saw someone on the news talk about PETA in a positive/serious way?

In conclusion, I urge each and every one of you to go out and eat a steak tonight. Just for spite.

PETA has reached a new low. I thought that this was bad enough ( [url]http://www.noyuo.com/images/lardsmall.jpg[/url] ), but I guess I was wrong. However, I have just implemented a plan that will change the tide, and hopefully defeat PETA. I call my plan PITA: People Ingesting Tasty Animals. :rotflmao: In all seriousness, these people are just plain weird. How can you condone cannibalism, and shun eating chicken wings? It just doesn't make sense. Much like the aforementioned billboard. (By the billboard's logic, Jesus is in hell because he ate fish!)

Actually by the billboard's logic Jesus is still in heaven doing whatever religious deities do. Jesus wasn't exactly a glutton, as gluttony is eating too much and for the sake of it. I think he'd rarely, if ever, get a chance to eat like that (and even then he'd turn it down.) And the Bible says nowhere that eating meat makes you a glutton. You can eat too much produce and still be a glutton.

All this PETA stuff is utter crap. There is heaps of whacked stories surrounding them, but this cannabilism one is the lowest. How can you condone the taking of a human life, and then compare it to killing a chicken, with a clear conscience(sp?). How could you compare the holocaust with Chicken farming?

PETA rarely use logic or don't piss someone off. Naomi Cambell was modelling for them once, but they scrapped her because for a designer she had to wear fur. It wasn't even her choice, but a job.

EDIT: I realized somethings may be offensive to peeps in this so I changed it somewhat

[Artemis]

I'm gonna say here and now that I hate PETA with a passion (them and NOW, but that's gonna start a really messy debate), but I think they were just equating cannibalism with eating meat, not condoning it. What pisses me off about them is that they have no understanding of the human soul. They don't realize that we're different from animals in many ways. What kind of animal could create a society as complex as ours? Do any of them really have language? No, dolphins do not really have a language in the true sense of the word. I do not condone the abuse or other inhumane treatment of animals, but they are one of our major food sources. I happen to like hamburger a great deal, and I'm not a bad person. And if you wanna go on the wussy "It's wrong to kill anything for food" slogan, you end up incapable of eating veggies, too, making you a very hungry vegan. What can they eat any way? From what I've heard, nothing with a shadow... :rolleyes:

Isn't Cannibalism eating one of [url=http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/cannibalism]your own species[/url]? That's what I always thought and that makes this null and void, right?

[color=green]Cloricus, read the thread.

We're all intelligent enough to know what Cannibalism is. We're talking about PETA's comparison of cannibalism to eating animals.

[roymund]

lol, thats so frickin funny. I tried to adopt a dog from a PETA shelter and they made me start filling out an insane number of forms... So I took them home and just for spit stopped by an adoption agency... The forms to adopt a child had *)% of the same questions....:eek:

The PETA people had even more then the CAA of Maryland!!!!!

Plus before they let me take Kelly home they hgad to come to my house to do an inspection and check for "Puppy-Proofing"
LOL they tried to fail me because a bottle of bleqach didn't have a childproof cap and was stored on the bottom shelf of an unlocked cabnet!!!! LOL [size=3]I had to bribe the inspector to adopt a dog!!!![/size]

[color=violet]I ate chicken wings from Wegmans for dinner, does that count? Oh, and I went horseback riding and used my jumping bat on the horse because she was being a brat (ears pinned back, trying to bite me, bucking, and a refusal on the jump I was going for) So I think I did my think for the day.

As for cannibilism being 'O.k.' by PETA's standards-welll, I honestly can't say I'm all that surpised by this descion by such [i]intelligent[/i] people.

Canibleism is a party of some societies, but that's neither here nor there in this topic. This is about stupidity of a groups who tried to change the name of a town in Eastern NY state because they didn't know Dutch. This is a group people who think that since cows don't try to eat you , you shouldn't eat the cow. I'm sorry, but I happen to like cow. I had some a few days ago.

do the intelligent world a favor and outlaw PETA.[/color]

[Maully]

[color=green]I always find PETA really good for a laugh. They always find new and interesting ways to be outlandandish. In all actuality, I respect that fect that they will never back down from a stance (even if it is crazy).

I don't enjoy how PETA is so hardline about making their beliefs [i]everyone's[/i] beliefs/ Ianderstnd that there are people who feel in such a way as to give an animal a dirty look is barbaric, and I don't offer them a steak simply because I do eat meat. I simply see it as part of the natural food chain, although we are the only species in the food chain to mass produce, herd and alter the animals we eat the most of. Live as you see fit, and allow me to do the same, please.

I had a roomate in the dorms one year. She was an active member of PETA and a vegan. She used to hang up propaganda all over our room and give me articles on the mistreatment of animals and the inhumanity of how animals are slaughtered. It can turn your stomache, really. I almost had a guilt complex about it for a bout a half a second.[/color]

[Baron Samedi]

Involuntary cannibalism is wrong.

But if the volunteer [i]wants[/i] to be eaten.. what is the problem? It isn't [i]quite[/i] the same as eating an animal, but really, what is so wrong about it?

To you or me, eating another human, or being eaten by one is wrong, bad, gross etc. etc.

Baron to Earth- not everyone is the same. Some people think differently to us.

There are some seriously strange and weird people out roaming the world. Get used to it.

We happen to be at the top of the food-chain. Eating other animals is our right. However, unnecessary cruelty and misuse of this right is not fair or good. This is how it is... we should settle in for the long haul.

[naomisan24]

Cannibalism is atrocious. However, eating animals is, to me, just as wrong. If it were up to me, there would be reproductive mud with nutrients. However, it's not up to me. And if mud could reproduce, it would be a living organism and nothing would be accomplished.It's natural for kingdom animalia to eat their brethren, but NOT IN FRONT OF ME!!! We kill each other in war anyway, so we may as well put the dead to use. But feed it to animals, that's where it belongs. And SUVs are bad, too.

[James]

[color=#707875]I don't have any particular moral objection to cannibalism in and of itself...but obviously, to be a cannibal, you're going out there and murdering another human being. Well, unless the victim wants to be eaten...but yeah, I don't really have an opinion on that. If the guy is stupid enough to volunteer for murder/cannibalism, I don't really care.

In any case, the whole PETA thing annoys me. On a basic level, I think PETA is simply ignoring nature. Have you ever noticed the carnivore teeth in your mouth? What about the well-established idea that various forms of meat are part of a healthy human diet?

The fact is, human beings [i]are[/i] omnivores. We are naturally able to eat a combination of meat and non-meat foods. That's what's healthy and natural to us. For someone to go out there and say "You shouldn't eat meat", is really foolish. It just flies in the face of a most basic element of human biology. lol

Of course, I can understand the whole thing about not tolerating animal testing, or treating animals in a cruel way (obviously I don't think many sane people would support the mistreatment of animals in general). But I think that's probably a seperate issue.[/color]

How timely. I recently posted this in my myOtaku too.

[James P. Galvatron]

That is a very funny picture, but I think it is very sick what that man did eating another human being even if he agreed what kind of simpleton agrees to something like that. I used to be a vegetarian until my stepfather came me and my mother hadn't eaten meat we were vegetarians we drunk soy milk and everything. We are not anymore I couldn't live that way i don't see how vegans do it and PS eating soy milk with your cereal is terrible it tastes awful.

Reproductive mud...:rolleyes: So, what do you eat, naomisan24? Plants are alive and so are animals. Do you eat dirt? rocks, perhaps? I think James made a good point: Humans [i]are[/i] omnivores. If you choose not to eat meat, fine, but don't tell the rest of us that [i]we[/i] can't.
By the way, what are you going to do about all those evil SUVs? :naughty:

It honestly boggles my mind, how they could think like that. Just hearing all this has made me lose any hope of the possibility of PETA or any other radical group even hearing any other opinion, much less considering its plausibility (ironic). And that billboard just plain set me off. Not only did it not bother to even make an attempt at getting the correct definition of a word [i]and[/i] insult my religious beliefs, the entire thing was completely hypocritical. I just went to their site to see just how concerned they were about religion and getting people saved, and my suspicions proved true. Here's a few quotes I found:

"CBS Rejects PETA's Superbowl [B]Racy[/B] 'Sausage' Ad"
"the three most popular elements in winning television spots are sex, humor, and animals." (referring to the commercial)
"Help us crown the [B]'Sexiest Vegetarian Alive'![/B]"
"Play Col. Sanders? 'Head Up the Butt' Game" (resorting to open ridicule? Or, as they say, "Taking a lighthearted approach to a serious matter"?)

About the rejected commercial and the "sex, humor, and animals" - notice that they didn't take time to actually make a worthwhile commercial with their own ideas. They were so busy pointing fingers that they never put any effort into it. They just said "Ah, screw it. Let's just put some breasts and stale jokes in there and be done with it." Besides, they had their classic failsafe of calling prejudice in case it didn't air.

So it seems that they take anything they see, warp it to fit their demented beliefs, and contradict it immediately after.
