I'm not the one claiming it matters. I'm the one that says only a deuchebag would point out those kinds of errors and act like they matter. Its a shallow criticism when you correct a mistake that does not change the meaning of an argument. Its a distraction away from the argument. Its fallacious, because its an attempt to diminish credibility on irrelevant grounds.
Clearly reading is not your forté either. :D
I did not claim it matter, I pointed out no errors (except your 'punctuation' one later on, mostly for the irony) I corrected no mistakes, and it is more irony you claim I distracted from the debate as at least I included on topic conversation in my post - unlike this one of yours. And I diminished nobody's credibility.
And I'm guessing you don't know enough grammar to follow through on your implied offer to correct my English... :D
Pretty much a fail all around... :D
The worst place I found for smelly people was Paris - I figure it must be why they got into perfumes so heavily. And Paris is not renowned for a vegetarian diet as a city - lotsa meat, lots of meat-based sauces etc. But it wasn't meat I smelt it was unwashed bodies, mostly with an attempt to cover it with rather sickly smells some might call fragrances.
The Chinese have a very low intake of meat generally and I found they also had an odour I wasn't too fond of.
I think diet makes a big difference to how people smell and I even have a theory we only got civilisation running properly once we learned to wash regularly - if you meet someone who doesn't have a diet similar to your own, they smell.
I've known veggies who smell sweet as, and meat eaters also. I have also met the ones who have decided for some reason water is a bad thing to use on their bodies and it doesn't matter what they eat or don't eat, they stink after a couple of days. Thank god most of them still use toilet paper or we'd be shooting them in the streets. :D
IMV we are omnivores, born & bred (& perhaps designed if that floats your boat :D) and sometimes we eat meat and sometimes we don't. The amount of work that has to go into designing a veggie diet that gives us all our daily needs suggests to me that it is entirely natural for us to eat meat. So many of the manipulations of the veggie diet are to augment things lacking that a good meat and veggie diet gives us easily.
If you choose to not eat meat, that's fine by me. Do it for moral grounds or for spiritual beliefs, but let's not pretend it is somehow natural. We are not carnivores but nor are we herbivores and almost everything about our body design tells us that.
If you choose to eat meat, do us all a favour and get active about getting rid of the battery-farms and horrible places that greed has built and start buying from people who care about their farms and animals etc. Buy free range, buy local, find a butcher instead of a supermarket.
It's not wrong to choose a life style. But it isn't right to slag off at others who chose one different from your own... :D
