Quoted:
I like vegetarians. My favorite foods are vegetarians [:D]
The ones who don't eat meat because they don't like the taste, I can deal with them. It's the ones who are trying to make some kind of statement (like the Vegans who don't even eat honey because it's made by bees) that really bug me. Plants are alive too. It's all a matter of where certain people choose to draw the line.

To quote from the CD "Undertow" by Tool,
"This is necessary. This is necessary. Life feeds on life, feeds on life, feeds on life."
You have GOT to hear the track that comes from. It's the most amazing slam of vegetarianism (and funny as hell in a dark way) that you've ever heard.
Amazing CD, too.
Here's the lyrics of this selection:
(sheep bleating at intro)
" And the angel of the Lord came unto me, snatching me up from my place of slumber,
And took me on high, and higher still until we moved into the spaces betwixt the air itself, and he brought me into a vast farmland of our own midwest, and as we descended, cries of impending doom rose from the soil.
One thousand, nay, a MILLION voices full of fear,and terror possessed me then, and I begged, "Angel of the Lord, what are these tortured screams?"
And the angel said unto me, "THESE are the cries of the carrots.
You see, Reverend Maynard, tomorrow is harvest day, and to them, it IS the HOLOCAUST."
And I sprang from my slumber, drenched in sweat like the tears of one million terrified brothers, and roared, "Hear me now! I have seen the light! They have a consciousness! They have a life! They have a soul! DAMN YOU! LET the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an 'amen'? (Sheep bleating, sounds like 'amen) Can I get a 'halleleujah'? (Sheep bleating, sounds like halleleujah) Thank you, Jesus. "
It's a great tune.
