How do people who kill fruit and veg live with them self's?

Ok ok yes stupid question,but to all the vegitarians who slate us meat eater's,you are really fruit and veg murderers,that poor little potatoe or pea was quite happy living with it's other little buddies,then it was ripped away but nobody could hear it's pitiful little screams & plea for help,,,so when you are munching away spare a thought for the life you have taken.Amen

Update:

Well there is mixed views on here there's the ones with a sense of humour then there the ones who feel that fruit & veg do not have feelings,so my argument is still the same,IT is a living thing,why do some people talk to thier plants,because they feel it helps them grow,utter nonsence if they have no feeling's,well the only thing they should really have that would help them is a mouth,oh I eat fruit veg meat absolutly any thing.....

    Now you know they are going to tell you they don't have feelings or conciousness and that they are inanimate (wrong inanimate objects don't grow) bet if they could hear them scream though they'd think differently.

    At least we meat eaters kill our food before we eat it eh! What happens if you put that pea in the ground? It grows and reproduces never seen a dead animal do that!

    At least I'm a dog and just let anybody try telling me I can't eat meat! Don't mind the occasional bit of fruit or veg either!

    Do you have a fruit tree in your garden.When the fruit ripens

    what happens next.

    When the fruit has ripened it is ready to be picked for eating but,

    what would happen if there was nobody around to pick the fruit.

    As the winter months approach.The fruit tree sheds its apples or

    pears or whatever it is carrying and they end up on the ground

    to rot away.Some of the seeds within the fruit might just have a chance to grow but most don`t.Animals and plants are as different as chalk and cheese.If i buried you in the ground up to your knees whilst you were standing up then ran over you with a large lawn

    mower,what do you think your chances of survival would be.

    If i did the same thing with almost any plant it would most probably come back up in the spring but you wouldn't.

    The answer to your question is.OK yes,its a stupid question.

    I`m not a vegetarian either.

    exciting question. So regularly i'm getting the sensation that we've exchange into so sheltered from any soreness and soreness that we forget approximately the organic brutality and heartache of existence. we've a humorous dichotomy in our innovations approximately existence and dying. all of us comprehend we will die some day, and then maximum folk have young babies understanding finished nicely that those young babies will die some day. yet we experience cheated and get so disillusioned while somebody dies - as though eternal existence grew to become into the organic expectation??? Animals are an exciting case by using fact they don't make ethical judgements. They stay to tell the tale. Even issues that we'd undertaking as being stable are instinctual. And animals eating animals is a reminder of the character of all existence - all of us circulate some day whether this is brutal or not. yet having reported all that - confident, i'm getting livid as quickly as I see animals killing one yet another. rather those team efforts the place they stalk and attack in a team and %. away at it little by potential of little. I observed lions kill an elephant one time and have self assurance me - that factor took hours to circulate down.

    Veggans take away the meat and you want to take away the veggies... what on EARTH would be left for people to eat????? Thing is we MUST kill SOMETHING in order to eat---either a plant or an animal..... By not eating meat of any kind, vegetarians believe they are saving the animals--and in a way, the ARE... but that would only truly work if EVERYONE became a vegetarian...as long as there are us meat eaters roaming the earth, Animals will be killed for food.... However, if you can come up with another alternative food source, I'll leave the veggies alone as well.... but it SURE BETTER TASTE GOOD!!!!!

    Damn right!

    You may be interested to know that it does bother some people, and that's where fruitarianism comes in. They only eat fruit that's fallen off the tree, and animals that have died of old age.

    or how about Milareepa, a buddhist saint who lived on water and soup made of nettles? He lived in a cave, eating his nettles, and was so happy that he sang hymns to buddha every day. When the people heard him singing and investigated, they saw that he had eaten so much nettle soup that he had turned green.

    Your freakin' nuts. Have you ever heard of a thing called the food chain? Not to mention animals eat them to and I'm all for the envorment and all but we need the nution from them and getting it through a cow just don't cut it on nution. If you hate it that much then why do you even eat? It is just the natural balance of nature.

    Lol! They are murderers!!! how dare the hypocrites!!

    But wait, what if this creates a sort of mass suicide now when the veggies think, oh no..we can't eat anything, we'll have to starve ourselves to death... hmmmmm

    Many Native American tribes used to pray to the plants they were picking, to ask permission to share their fruits, and for forgiveness for taking away their seeds.

    Stupid question? Maybe...Exaggeration? Maybe not...Valid point? To be sure.

    Maybe they don't think about fruits and vegetables being "living" things maybe they just think of them as being plants that grow and we're supposed to eat them and when we do it doesn't hurt them at all. I really have no idea cuz i'm not a vegetarian. i hope i helped.

    Um...not the same thing. Fruits and veggies are not sentient beings, they do not feel pain and have no heartbeat. So next time your nawing on a cow part spare a thought for the life you have taken away.
