I don't know what that means. You contradicted yourself. Vegetarians exist, and many of them are not tempted to eat meat; many are disgusted by the thought of eating meat (more psychologically than because of taste).
- wahnfrieden 14y agoHe's saying you can't resist eating both animal and plant. (You can, and it leads to starvation.)
- harshreality 14y agoMy mistake, that's not contradictory, but I still don't understand the argument. To me it looks like this: Break down some necessary activity into a dichotomy where one option is neutral/good, and the other option is undesirable according to some people. It's invalid to claim that the undesirable action is actually ok simply because you have to pick one or the other. Instead, you have to make an argument specifically against the neutral/good option.
