    personal freedoms?



    How exactly could meat be so tasty and delicious but not intended for us to be eaten?

    God / Nature just so happened to want us a couple hundred thousand years down the line find the technology that would let us consume this the way it should be?

    Very interesting stuff

    By the way if you hate personal freedoms being affected, you must have some strong opinion on Newsom, huh?

    How much do you dislike that guy?

    We already cheat nature and live far beyond our natural expectancy and you already consume lab created chemicals and preservatives daily. Unless your entire diet is raw fish and organic veggies grown in your back yard.

    Outside of food medicine cheats nature in every way possible and we will eventually defeat the aging process all together.

    What's extra hilarious is that a farmed cow is not "nature" but the low-IQ don't grasp that.

    Cows and pigs do not live in the wild. They were bred from other animals. Breeding and farming enormous populations of animals for mass consumption is not "nature".

    I don't particularly care what lab-grown meat does to the environment. I want to know what it does to MY (and my family's) body. I want to know if it's going to have similar percentage of FAT (and correct ratio of omega 3 to 6 to 9) to real meat or whether some bureaucrat is gonna mandate that saturated fat and cholesterol is not good for us (similar to that stupid, recommended Food Pyramid). And I want decades of people eating this stuff with no ill effects before switching. Unfortunately, I don't have that amount of time.

    And in the meantime, don't touch my real beef, bacon or butter. It should be a choice - if you wanna eat that stuff, go ahead. But don't hike up taxes/mandates of me (not) eating real meat.

    is solar energy nature, or is the use of solar energy the lack of understanding (cheat) of nature?

    is evolution in itself not wild enough?


    but here's the punchline, you went on the internet, and got rid of your paper mails, and now you don't even know what a map is.

    Almost nothing we do is natural. We aren't cavemen anymore. We left our natural setting centuries ago. We have conquered nature and we will continue to conquer nature even further.

    So get rid of your car if you have one, toss out your computer and/or phone, go live ass-naked in the woods and live off of leaves and berries since you want to limit everyone to what "God" and nature have made. The Lord was very upset when we ate that apple and started wearing clothes, we need you to rectify the situation.

    Everyone else, I just got rid of the dumbest poster on the board. Thank me.

    Someone can correct me on this but afaik, even organic vegetables have been altered over centuries through selective breeding. Sure, they don't use gmos to raise them but that doesn't mean they have not be genetically altered through selective breeding over perhaps a century or at least multiple decades. Selective breeding is a form of altering what nature intended. We do it for animal meat too.

    Fishes are the only thing that we don't. As long as they are acquired from the ocean in the wild and not bred in captivity on some fish farm. If they are from some fish farm then they probably used selective breeding too. And sea weeds I guess if from the wild and not a seaweed farm.

    What. Are. You. Talking. About.

    (as it pertains to solar energy)

    "We have conquered nature" - how arrogant. That's like people saying the Titanic couldn't sink. I don't care what man made thing is built/developed - it's nothing compared to NATURE. You do know that we humans are fallible and make mistakes.

    Titanic? I am saying we have departed from "nature". We are no longer part of the food chain, we have created our own food chain.

    The arrogance lies with people like you who tell others they must live "natural" on their brand new I Phone that defies anything nature could produce for us. If you want to preach living natural then live out your life naked in the wilderness.
