Here to refine my debate skills

Post by Monolith »

I'll make this short. I'm a "stupid" meat eater and I'm here to debate!
I debate during most of my waking hours, even if nobody's around. With my self or with my computer screen since I don't often reply to youtube videos.
I've watched a few videos and I was pleased by how TheVeganAtheist responded and argued in his videos so I joined this forum to try and debate a bit and stay educated. Since I love to debate I feel like this is the right place to settle down for a bit.
I've been an evolving atheist since I was old enough to ask myself questions but I never really questioned why I eat meat since way later. Now that I'm an adult and have a better understanding of the world I'm ready to change my mind or the minds of others.

Welcome Monolith. Looking forward to seeing you debate the merits of eating meat. It's not a position that's easy to defend.
How to become vegan in 4.5 hours:
1.Watch Forks over Knives (Health)
2.Watch Cowspiracy (Environment)
3. Watch Earthlings (Ethics)
Congratulations, unless you are a complete idiot you are now a vegan.

welcome to the forum. I too like your flipped avatar.
Do you find the forum to be quiet and inactive?
- Do your part by engaging in new and old topics
- Don't wait for others to start NEW topics, post one yourself
- Invite family, friends or critics
