Today, while he was eating chicken, one of my friends asked me why I'm a vegetarian. I responded that I believe in animal rights and don't like the conditions the animals are forced to live in. He looked at me incredulously before explaining that "chickens aren't animals, they're birds." FML

Hi guys, OP here. Yeah I've been a vegetarian for a few years and my friend finally decided to call me out on it. I think i died a little inside when i heard it haha. He eventually did admit that he was wrong and we're still friends and whatnot. Common sense isn't so common nowadays though is it.

This friends, is why us vegetarians have a bad reputation for acting like we're better than people.

Honestly, I'm not religious. So I appreciate your two cents! I don't see any religion as logical, that's why its faith, ya know? I just like studying them and learning.

I'm pretty sure he was being specific.

So, I suppose children aren't really people? Lol

"Fish, meat, and poultry" was more or less created by Catholics to determine what they must fast from for Lent. "Meat" is the flesh of a mammal only in this case. I don't buy into the religion. If you are eating it and it was alive, and its not a plant, it's meat. And chickens are terribly abused before they end up on your plate.

plants are also technically alive...I Domt think they die she you put ranch on them........but Yeah STEAK RULES AND BACON

Seriously, 143. At least ancient alien theorists have evidence to attempt to prove their thoughts. It's MUCH better than "You can't see him, but he's there. Trust me."
