Most noteworthy for me is the fact that more Americans think that porn (52%) and homosexuality (39%) are wrong than spanking children (23%) and being ultra wealthy (18%).

Plenty of people don’t eat any meat and live just fine?

And why does it matter if a person does? Food availability and nutrition has so many variables. Including financial capabilities.

I don't shame people for doing their own thing. But morality here is subjective.

Rare to see someone so incapable of critical thought lmao

My logic sounds absurd when you apply it to a different example? why would you use a different example, that makes it sound dumb

it's fine to eat because it's food and it's food because it's fine to eat. simple as

It is rare to see someone with such a lack of critical thought so very nice of you to parade yourself around for us all to laugh at.
