The logic of Vegetarianism
"An examination of the structure of the human body leads to the conclusion that man is intended by mature to live on a vegetable diet. There is the closest affinity between the organs of the human body and those of the fruit-eating animals. The monkey, for instance is so similar to man in shape and structure, and it is a fruit-eating animal. Its teeth and stomach are just like the teeth and stomach of man, while those of carnivorous animals, as for instance, the lion and tiger, are entirely different."
Physiological Comparisons
Meat-Eater
- has claws
- on skin pores, perspires through tongue
- Sharp front teeth for tearing, on flat molar teeth for grinding
- intestinal tract 3 times body length so rapidly decaying meat can pass out quickly
Man
- no claws
- perspires through pores
- no sharp front teeth, has flat rear molars
- intestinal tract 12 times body length
- stomach acid 20 times less strong than meat-eaters
Herbivore
- no claws
- perspires through skin pores no sharp front teeth, has flat rear molars
- intestinal tract 10-12 times body length
- stomach acid 20 times less strong than meat-eaters
The Stamina of a Camel, The Strength of an Elephant, and The Beauty of a Horse are all sustained on a Vegetarian Diet.

Humans do not need claws we have an opposable thumb. Great for holding that knife while I cut my steak. I'm glad I perspire through my pores, it would be disgusting to perspire through my tounge while I eat a bacon double cheeseburger. I don't know about you but I have four teeth towards the front of my mouth called incisors, really great for ripping the meat from those BBQ ribs. Those chili dogs I had yesterday didn't seem to mind that my intestinal tract is 12 times body length. And lastly, the Chicken parmesan sandwich I had for lunch today had no problem being digested with human stomach acid.

I am not a vegetarian, I need to eat my meat...I feel faint if I don't eat beef or pork for a while.

Yes, i'm a vegetarian but I like eggs. I don't want my son to be a vegetarian. I would allow him to eat anything he likes. He doesn't have to struggle for eating when he visits certain countries like japan
