In reply to: chadi 's message, "someone who knows what the past tense of "catch" is, has enough consciousness to fear being killed - specially "slaughtered" - and struggles to avoid pain, unless he/she is a masochist, but even in such case a saddist is needed." on 23:23:54 12/01/02 Sun

If God didn't mean for us to consume one another, He wouldn't have created the food chain!

God also gave humans the ability of having sympathy, mercy, non-violence, which they can use to avoid harming any other living being and have sympathy to all the creatures in the universe so that peace prevails. (NT) chadi 11:09:52 12/02/02 Mon

I doubt God would instill within us the desire not to eat any other living being. That would leave us with only rocks and gravel to eat, and that wouldn't be very adaptive to our species. -- The Chadistumper, 20:12:21 12/02/02 Mon

Someone like you should live with CANNIBALS. Why don't you? -- chadi, 21:43:58 12/02/02 Mon

All living things have consciousness, silly! That's what makes them living things. And humans can eat raw beef, if it's properly prepared. Haven't you ever heard of steak tartar? Poor, sheltered chadi. -- The Chadistumper, 22:05:20 12/02/02 Mon

I will not comment on what says someone who curses the person he/she criticizes. (NT) -- chadi, 22:21:50 12/02/02 Mon

Curses? Who cursed you? (NT) -- The Chadistumper, 01:19:32 12/03/02 Tue

You didn't curse me? You said "all living things have consciousness, silly....". It seems that someone like you has no consciousness of his cursing. But anyways, I advise you to open your philosophy textbook and read the chapter about "consciousness" or the chapter about "language". then you would be able to read my posts, but not respond to them of course.... -- chadi, 20:59:57 12/06/02 Fri

Since you can't spell consciousness, I wouldn't trust you to tell me what it means. And "silly" isn't a curse, you paranoid Lebanese hothead. -- The Chadistumper, 08:40:41 12/07/02 Sat

First, what's wrong with my spelling of "consciousness"? Second, you'd better watch the documentary movie "the animal mind" on a TV station called "Animal Planet". (NT) -- chadi, 15:41:45 12/07/02 Sat

I see you glazed over the allegations of paranoia altogether. Why don't you address that? -- The Chadistumper, 19:41:11 12/07/02 Sat

Philosophy isn't an exact science; it's a conglomeration of different opinions. A philosophy book would be the last place one would go to find an objective definition. Try a dictionary instead. (NT) -- English Teacher, 08:43:45 12/07/02 Sat
All living things are conscious -- at different levels -- Cheri, 09:36:42 12/07/02 Sat

also humans do not have neither a carnivorous digestive system, nor a carnivorous set of teeth. (NT) chadi 11:13:55 12/02/02 Mon

Uh, actually, they do. If you look at the history of human evolution you can map out the change of the teeth through what the genus Homo was eating. Teeth did change shape due to omnivorous diet (including meat)! -- Grad Student in Anthropology, 16:01:56 12/02/02 Mon

Omnivorous diet??? can man eat raw meat. can he eat "uncooked" meat without having to die from salmonella which lives in chicken and E. Coli:157 which lives in red meat?? (NT) -- chadi, 18:58:33 12/02/02 Mon

these two microorganisms are normal florae to chicken and cows but they are deadly to humans. And I dont think that nowadys people cannot have a more than complete diet and become healthier without consuming the flesh of other animals. (NT) -- chadi, 19:19:35 12/02/02 Mon

chadi....chadi....less time please in the Biology textbook and more time with the English!! You're using double negatives again... -- English Teacher, 21:01:55 12/02/02 Mon

Thanks (NT) -- chadi, 21:48:43 12/02/02 Mon

these two microorganisms are normal florae to chicken and cows but they are deadly to humans. And I dont think that nowadys people cannot have a more than complete diet and become healthier without consuming the flesh of other animals. (NT) -- chadi, 19:21:29 12/02/02 Mon

Dearest chadi, you've aptly demonstrated that humans have an intolerance to certain microorganisms, but have failed to demonstrate that the meat itself is harmful to the human digestive system... -- Sushi Lover, 20:04:29 12/02/02 Mon

Yes it is, first, these microorganims "live" in chicken and cows, chiken and cows "NEED" them, and they are "DEADLY" to humans, second, animal protein causes osteoporosis. Yes, and if you keep consuming dairy products, you will get osteoporosis. (NT) -- chadi, 20:24:12 12/02/02 Mon

Sushi is an example of raw meat that humans eat, which provides good cholesterol and brain nutrients. -- Sushi Lover, 21:59:49 12/02/02 Mon

Mr Anthropologist, I dare you to eat raw chicken, then raw beef meat!!! come on do it if you're a man. (NT) -- chadi, 19:19:37 12/02/02 Mon

Hey, dumbass, I was commenting on your erroneous statement that human teeth are not meant for a carnivorous diet. -- Grad student in anthropology, 19:57:19 12/02/02 Mon

Did I say that cooking meat is something new? Try to understand what you read before making your rantings. (NT) -- chadi, 20:17:45 12/02/02 Mon

You still have not pointed out how eating ANY meat is dangerous to the human digestive system nor have you tried to explain how human teeth are not equipped for a carnivorous diet. -- Grad student in anthropology, 20:22:23 12/02/02 Mon

Go to the third previous message above and read before throwing your curses. -- chadi, 20:33:23 12/02/02 Mon

You will not comment because you do not have the actual scientific facts to back it up. The fact is you don't know. -- Grad student in anthropology, 20:51:42 12/02/02 Mon

Of course i will not comment on what says someone like you who considers archeology a "100% pure objectiveand acurate science". (NT) -- chadi, 21:05:54 12/02/02 Mon

1. I was coming from a physical anthropological point of view, not archaeoligical. Although both are subfields of anthropology, what they deal with may or may not overlap. 2. Cannibalistic tribes are/were only those that ate a PART of the human body from an enemy, their diet did not even consist 1% human. -- Grad student in anthropology, 18:29:57 12/03/02 Tue
Also, post-processualism in archaeology has shown that archaeology is not 100% objective. Read up on history of theory of archaeology before you comment on something else you know nothing about. Might I suggest "History of Archaeological Thought" by Bruce Trigger? -- Grad student in anthropology, 18:38:57 12/03/02 Tue

Of course i have some actual scientific facts: haven't you heard of Cannibals? This is the best scientific fact that proves man is a meat eater. Just like spiders eat each other when kept alone. What a sarcasm! (NT) -- chadi, 21:54:55 12/02/02 Mon

You can't say, "What a sarcasm." You have to say, "What sarcasm!" (NT) -- English Teacher, 22:09:45 12/02/02 Mon

Maybe we would better ask, "What sarcasm?" I can't seem to find which statement you consider to be sarcastic. -- English Teacher, 22:17:03 12/02/02 Mon

I know what sarcasm means (NT) -- chadi, 22:26:00 12/02/02 Mon

Obviously you do not since I was not being sarcastic yesterday. (NT) -- Grad student in anthropology, 18:32:32 12/03/02 Tue

do you know what a carnivorous set of teeth is? "carnivorous" is different from "omnivorous" and your response of "uh actually they do" leads me to the conclusion that you don't know what a "carnivorous" set of teeth is. my advice: work more on your comprehensive reading, ESPECIALLY before responding by using the word "STUPID" (NT) -- chadi, 01:08:53 12/08/02 Sun

Ahem. Another double negative correction. Tsk, tsk! "...also, (note comma) humans HAVE neither a carnivorous digestive system, nor a carnivorous set of teeth." (NT) -- English Teacher, 21:30:19 12/05/02 Thu
