Plants take in the carbon dioxide that we exhale. Plants PRODUCE the oxygen that we need to breathe. Without plants, human life could not exist. I'm intelligent enough to know that. So why are you killing the oxygen producers?

Great argument there. Many people enjoy the taste of meat...meat is food...animals eat meat...it's a very natural thing to do. I don't think eating meat is stupid. Even if it was stupid for whatever reason people still do stupid things (smoking and alcohol are not the cleverest things to do but people do it because they enjoy it).
