Here are some friends with simlar question as we.And I have this question for many days,anyone help us?
Kitty said: Yes.Vegetarians....There is some theories that plants can feel pain and actually com-I try seach this on internet but no results found.Maybe this is a stupid question.
Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(Vegetarians....There is some theories that plants can feel pain and actually com),it will help you,my kids.
That said if it were proven what would you as a vegetarian eat?
Answer:
Plants do infact communicate with each other but through plant hormones. This does not mean that they think or feel though as humans do. It is an evolutionary process of natural selection that favored those hormones effects in the plants. For example, a hormone secreted by a ripening tomatoe can cause surrounding tomatoes to ripen as well. They don't really "talk" or "think" with eachother.
And as stated before plants have no CNS so cannot feel pain, and fruit is meant to be eaten, that is the plants way of dispersing their seeds.
i person ally don't blieve that
but i suppose if i did i would starve
unless i ate rocks!!
i have a little problem with vegitarrians who think it is okay to eat fish
how is fish different than chicken
why do you think you can say "im a vegiterian and don't eat anything with a face" and then turn around and eat some sushi or whatever
i personally used to be a vegiterrian and stopped because no matter what you eat you are killing something
either you kill animals directly or you kill there food supply.
and plus humans are just meant to eat meat. hamburgers are the modern version of hunting wich is the modern version of survival
every species does it so get over it
there already are people who live with this prinicple. they are following Fruitarianism.No idea but the prinicple is that they don't eat anything that harms the plant/tree/bush oh and it isn't just fruit they eat.
well, when youre peeling spuds, and for no apparent reason, the knife dissapears...why?
ever cponsidered the knife and the potato havent done anyting to upset the other, and the knife thinks that maybe in another life, he and the spud were friends... so the knife shifts into another reality, where he may hide from the barbarism of so many people who he has heard like to skin thier victims, in cold water with sharp slicing tools, before disecting them and bloiling them alive... and the knife wants no part of it... he has in his past skinned milliuons of poor souls, but no more... enough is enough...
the knife will reappear innocently in the freezer many weeks later...
oh, the wife and eldest daughter are veggies, the youngest an I arent... we get along fine...
well show me some proof and we'll talk.
Plants have no brains and no central nervous systems therefore it is IMPOSSIBLE for them to feel pain. Case closed.
This is true! I've heard about the expieriments on these plants. But guess what----it's either me or the plants----the plant's gonna lose! ....move out the way-----hungry vegetarian on the loose!!!
Hey.... There is some theories that dogs can move cars with thier mind.
That said if it were proven would you be afraid to drive your car near a dog?
You obviously don't know the purpose of fruit.
Fruit surrounds seeds and lures animals to eat it. The seeds pass through the digestive system of the animal and get deposited somewhere else, along with some fertilizer.
Anyway, by being vegan you minimize not only animal suffering, but plant consumption as well. By eating lower on the food chain, fewer plants are killed.
i'd still be a vegan.
no
some people are vegetarians because cancer runs in their families,and there is a correlation between high red meat consumption and incedence of cancer,breast cancer in particular.many people become vegetarians hoping to avoid a reoccurance of cancer.red meat consumption also correlates with greater risk of colo-rectal cancer.u are inferring the tired argument that vegetarians are weird,bleeding hearts who would starve if they could hear an artichoke scream.in todays world,we know more about health issues,and if i can avoid a lingering death and a colostomy bag in my future,u better believe being meatless is worth it !!
I already answered this question here http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/ind...
"But isnt eating fruit the same as eating somethings young ?? You like become a baby eater?"
Ha ha, fruit, berries, seeds, nuts, legumes, beans, etc. are all designed to be eaten for a reason. To help spread the plant's genetics to other areas.
Of course vegetables have feelings- me and Prince Charles are together on this one.
eat windfalls as they have fallen off tree etc so r allready dead and you have not murdered the poor defenseless vegetables!!
alternatively... dust is a yummy treat!
