Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

Really. Fucking great. I'm sure. I'm pretty sure they could've survived without meat. 90% of their intake was fruits and vegetables. It might've been a lot harder and yes my brain might've been as underdeveloped as yours is right now - but that doesn't mean extinction. You're still alive and you suffer from extreme levels of stupidity.

So because ancient peoples didn't know about other forms of protein we have to follow in their footsteps? They also believed that the gods made it rain and that if they upset the gods then they would be punished with floods. Should we believe the same things as them?Over time, humans discover things. You can either sit back and stay with tradition or you can move forward with science and discovery. I think the second way is better. I'm still allowed to eat meat, but now I know where I can get protein if I run out or if I don't want any.

I do support your opinion because especially meat is need for our organism every day

I saw and see what happens every day when I don't eat meat. I've been in 7 bike tours, ridden over 100 miles in a day, hiked 10 miles with 8,000ft elevation gain within 7 hours, twice. Went to the gym several years ago & averaged over 1.5lbs of muscle gain every week, increasing the weight by 1/4lb or more on most exercises -every time- I went to the gym. Most American meat eaters eat about 3-5 times more meat than their body can assimilate the protein from. Protein is amino acids. There are plenty of plants with sufficient levels of amino acids. Want -complete- protein? Eat quinoa. Or a bowl of beans or lentils & rice. Need Iron? Eat spinach. It's loaded with Iron. Oats, raisins, blackstrap molasses, edamame, pumpkin seeds, lentils and various other legumes are also all excellent sources of iron. There are also plenty of vegetable sources for necessary amounts of calcium, as with -all- essential nutrients. Also, anyone who thinks it is "manly" to eat meat should probably be living in a cave. They might feel more at home.

Go ahead. Stop eating meat and see what happens.You become a vegeterian. Duh. They tend to live longer, healthier and with less health issues than meat eaters.

Coming from a vegetarian? A vital vitamin that is necessary to the human body that is deprived when one becomes a vegetarian is Vitamin B12, and that is necessary for a healthy immune system! Better watch that connection to the brain bud.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

Have you actually read that link you supplied? B12 is contained in dairy products. Thus a vegetarian can have B12 aka 1 + 1 = 2.

And plus, where else will you get those vital amino acids that cause our bodies to build muscle? Show me one vegetarian who happens to be muscular. You can't.

I've been a vegetarian for 14 years & I'm 40. I win at arm wrestling against the majority of people, whether in their 30s or 20s. I beat most people half my age. I spend the majority of my time sitting in front of a computer. I do not ever "work out" my arms. When I was 21 years old (& "carniverous") I weighed 153lbs. I am (& was) 6'2".

Side: no of course not

Lol idiot. Me, LL Cool J, many of my friends. Google it. Maybe it's not as easily available for vegetarians as it is for non vegs, but doesn't mean there isn't any. If you're doing to say something.. have some logic, common sense, lack of stupidity etc. behind it.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: Yes Definatley

Ok but that's how you choose to live your life. Same with your "friends". You are denied the taste of meat and forced to enjoy tofu, whoop dee freakin doo.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

I don't really eat tofu...secondly.. great way of showing sour grapes. I'm right, you're wrong. Until you can prove we need meat to live... you're my biach. :D.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: Yes Definatley

However, you have completely failed to mention amino acids every time you forget that this is a debate and not time for little "kinda" to show off. wait, that happens to be every time you make an argument...my bad!
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

We have the biological capability to eat meat. We also have the biological capability to eat animal byproducts (milk, eggs) and the capability to eat vegetables and fruit. Therefore, we don't need to eat meat to survive. I think it's beneficial in a diet if you want a lot of protein, which can also be found in nuts, tofu, and a few other foods. But meat isn't a necessity.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

The main reason why many people oppose giving up meat is because it will be an inconvenience to them to base their diet only on autotrophs and because they will miss the taste of meat. Then, as they realize that this argument doesn't provide enough support to their argument, they continue to say that meat provides nutrients to the body.So, do we really need meat? NO.Meat provides no proteins, vitamins, or minerals that vegetables cannot provide. (There are many people who say that meat provides iron... beans and leafy greens can be a great source of iron.) And no, vegetarians do not suffer from iron deficiency.There are many cons to eating meat...Africa, one of the poorest countries in the world and one the countries that need the most food for its starving citizens, exports grain to feed livestock in other richer countries. (Ahem, America.)More people can be fed on a vegetarian diet. Every consumer absorbs 10% of the energy of the food it consumes. For example, a cow eats grass and absorbs 10% of the energy from the grass. A person eats the cow and absorbs 10% of the energy the cow got from the grass. Eating lower on the food chain means that more energy is absorbed, and more people can be fed.Much of the meat that people eat really isn't the meaty part of the animal? For example, McDonalds and Taco Bell uses grade F meat, while most dog food brands use grade D meat. What exactly is used for grade F meat? Ground up bones, ears, cartilage,.... Have you ever eaten a McDonald's burger and accidently bit on something hard and white? That's the bone that apparently wasn't ground up very well.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

I haven't had McDonald's as a legitimate meal in several years. The only things I ever get there are "snacks" meaning coffee, an occasional hash brown, or a McFlurry after a night of partying. :) lol. McDonald's is gross....And I haven't had Taco Bell ever! haha. It smells in there.

Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?

Because you can consume something does not negate the need for the other. As a species we can't survive without meat - it is the primary source of development both neurologically and muscular. This has already been show in rats and in tribes in Africa. We are omnivores.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

There are other foods that can provide the vitamins and minerals that mean provides, we do not physically need meat.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

No of course not. But like hell I'm going to give it up. I like food that tastes good. Not that I don't like vegetables, but I have needs that broccoli and cabbage just can't satisfy. Plus I'm a heartless bastard. Speaking of hearts...
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

Do we need meat to survive? No.Do we need meat to be satisfied? That depends.I'm a vegetarian and I'm perfectly fine with not eating meat. It makes it difficult to go out to eat or overseas travel but i'm not worse off and I think it's a better lifestyle.What we do need is protein but that and other elements can be gained from other non-meat foods and thus meat is not necessary for humans.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?

I've been vegan since I was 14 years old, and it's one of the best decisions I've ever made. Yes, I'm satisfied without meat, poultry, fish, dairy, eggs, or any other animal by-products.

Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

It is a evolution fact, that human survived on compelet vegetarian diet. Are appendix soul purpose was for us to digest tree leafs and bark. Humans do not need meat to live, meat has always been a choice and always will. Becuase of humans now intakeing alot of meat, the amount of heath problems, like hemochromatosis, birth deffects and salmonella. are becomeing a hazard. Alot people think their above animals, considering themselves a non animal, manily because of religion. What people have to accept that humans are animals, but what spearates us is only differences. We would find it abomination if people eat other people. But were animals and some animals need to eat other animals to surive that they nature is and it will always be. But in humans case we have put more than a hundered speices of animal indanger of being exstinct. Nautres food chain is meant to keep every speices alive. If there is to many preditors, the lack of food cause starvation and the population decrases while in return the lower on the food chain get re-populated. And when they get to over populated there is more food for higher rakes in food chain so there popultion increase. This is a perfect system of life, but snice humans have use tools and technology we have thrown the system out of wack and, as long as the human population grows the geater the numbers of other animals will decrase intell theres nothing left. It goes same with trees, if humans keep exspanding there will be no green left. Meat is murder people face the turth. And what happens in slaughter houses is unacceptable. If we humans wish to die a peacful death so do animals. Its a proven fact that wild animals will kill the animal the fastest way possible to the best of there ability. We human can make animals die a pecaeful death, but we shouldnt be killing in the first place. We don't need meat to survive, its a choice, a choice of murder, a choice ignorance, a choice stupidity, a choice of hatetred.

I'm vegeterian and I'm alive. Physically I'm in better shape/condition than the average person my age.So we don't NEED meat.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: Yes Definatley

Haha 'specially if other people your age are gone. SHAPE refers to the exercise you get and also the PROTEIN coming in.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: no of course not

shape has to do with resistance, and the ability to go the extra mile. But health has to do with excersise and eating the right things.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?

You're talking sh*t again. Shape doesn't just mean exercise. You wouldn't know anyway.
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: Yes Definatley

There you go again defending your vegetarianism like it's your religion and that the world's going to end if it doesn't win this online debate or you don't get your daily bowl of tofu! You can't take in all these ingredients and not even flex a muscle in order to get "ripped" like you and your "flawless "friends" claim to be. Or are you referring to circle shapes? I'm sorry, I think we're on different levels.

You're getting mixed up with fact and your mental problems. I've got no problem admitting I'm skinny... but I've got an athletic build. In comparison to the average - Fact - Lower visceral fatFact - Higher skeletal muscleFact - Better BMI ratingFact - Better blood pressureetc.This is all done without ever eating meat.Do you think you need to consume meat/protein shakes (and all the rest of that nonsense) to grow muscle?Predictably you're going to prove yourself to be a retard and say yes. I just want to hear you say it. Makes everybody feel good that there's people like you in the world.

well, even though i eat meat every once in a while, i have to agree that we do not have to kill cows and pigs and octupus's (do octupus's count as meat? im not really sure.)and then cook them just to eat for good flavor. think about it. what if you were a pig that was just about to be sliced up and cooked? wouldn't you have kicked and squealed just to live as the butcher was lifting his knife? that's exactly what a pig or cow or octupus(again, im not sure.) would feel like.same with us. So whenever you see a herd of pigs or cows or octupus's,(again, im not sure.) say thanks for the meat.

Meat is a product which people had eaten before. If we go back to history we will see that the main reason why people were strong was eating meat because meat is a really product which give a power. On the other hand we live in a 21st century, why we invent new technology if we can not stop eating meat and stop this cruеlty which exist now. People have to think about why we develop space technology if we can not solve one simple problem with this such kind of action.

We need vitamins, minerals, carbs and protein to live. How we go about getting these and which foods we choose to eat to get them, is up to us. With that being said, no ...we do not need meat, we need the correct balance of nutrients.

I have not had meat in my mouth since I was 4. Maybe I am only 14 but Im alive, I never had any health problems in my life. People are not designed to eat meat. Everybody I know eats meat and have many different health problems.I have developed so I can no longer digest meat. You can get all your nutrition from plants or diet supplements. Many people I know eat meat because they think animals have no feelings yet they weight more than me. Everybody say that meat is healthy, they are WRONG. It has been confirmed that an average vegetarian lives 6-10 years longer than a meat eater. So it is wrong to eat meat.

Vegetables do not hold the proper proteins to sustain us fully. We need meat in small amounts to live a full life
Debate: Do We Really Need Meat?
Side: Yes Definatley

Vegetables do not hold the proper proteins to sustain us fully. We need meat in small amounts to live a full lifeThis is something of a common misconception. Vegetables do provide all the nutrients we need to live, and live a full life. Vegetarians only have to eat a wider variety of food to get the nutrients.A small resource: http://www.mypyramid.gov/tips_resources/ vegetarian_diets.html
