Didn't carrots turn clint eastwood's skin orange?

People forgot the nature argument. It's un-natural to be a vegetarian

It's also, technically speaking, unnatural to build structures of any kind other than burrows, nests, and the like, but no one seems to have a problem with housing.

not it isn't. We can therefore we were meant to.

Being a vegetarian is unhealty unless it's done right and on the scale of human existance we've been able to do it right for about five minutes. We're physically not put togeather the right way.

"not it isn't. We can therefore we were meant to."

We can eat only non-animal food. Plenty of people do it their whole lives with no ill side effects. Therefore, we must be meant to.

not necessairily (spelled wrong i know).....while it is true there are people who live full and healthy lives on veggies alone, there are nutritional benefits to be reaped from meat that one cannot get from rabbit food. hence the reason why many vegetarians and vegans must take vitamin suppliments their whole lives. not that i am anti-veggie. i rarely (no pun intended) eat red meat. but no chicken is safe around me lol smiley - smiley

Well, I could say some other things here, but seeing as I lose every argument I get into ever, I think I'll just concede.

I don't think it is unnatural for the human animal to build houses. A large majority of animals build some sort of structure to protect themselves from the physical elements. How sophisticated the structure is is dependent on the intelligence of the animal in question. As quite a few of us human animals are much more intelligent than, for example, a smiley - bunny, you would expect our structures to be much more intricate and to better serve the needs of the occupant(s).

Then why aren't our houses self-cleaning?

If you want to build yourself a self-cleaning house then go right ahead, Lady Scott. There is nothing to stop you. And I'm sure that one or two other people would like the concept so much that they would be willing to pay you very handsomely for the design.

Do you have proof of this conspiracy, Amy, or are you just throwing accusations about willy-nilly?

amy, you are quite correct about a vacuum conspiracy...i lived in a house once that had all these outlets in the walls fer vacuum hoses...it was billed as "self cleaning"...except fer all that work of lugging 40 feet of hose around...but at least i didn't have to find an electrical outlet...what a time saver!
