Your       one example is not at all significant, but that one insignificant example is       all       you have. And also in your one and only example which is also insignificant,       it's not the "demand" for pet food which causes those particular cattle to       exist       which again makes it insignificant in regards to your claim. Again, as always,       you have NOTHING Goo.              >> So what?       >       >So, you and Fuckwit have been denying it.               For more than one reason Goober. One is that it seems unlikely on the       surface, since there is so much by-product from human food processing that       there's more than enough for pet food and some of it gets used for fertilizer       and rendering. If we're guessing that there's more money in animal parts used       for pet food than there is in animal parts that get rendered and used for       fertizer, then the fact that sometimes entire animals are rendered and used for       fertilizer tells us that there are already more than enough animals slaughtered       to feed dogs and cats and STILL have parts left over to be rendered and used       for       fertilizer.        Another example is that you have been able to find no evidence at all to       support your claim that extra cattle need to be raised, much less our other       more       recent and more absurd seeming claims. You have NOTHING to back up your claims       Goo, and that IS reason to doubt you. And to laugh at you too Goo.        Another is the fact that you can't provide any sort of details about what       it       is you think you have in mind. You can't even say how long you believe these       supposed pet food livestock are supposed to live, or where, or what types of       animals exactly.        So, Goo, even if we wanted to try to imagine your claims being true along       with you, which we HAVE tried Goober!, YOU can't provide enough details about       what your imagining to make it possible to consider whatever it is you think       you're thinking of. It gets back to: You have NOTHING!, Goo.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
