If a person were brain dead (literally) and you ate the person's body (literally)...
then could you claim to be a vegetarian and not get challenged here on DU?

4. Completely brain dead? At least they wouldn't likely feel that first bite.
You didn't say the person was dead, now did you?

15. This is DU, someone will challenge you! But then again a surprising number of people will...
give you the benefit of the doubt in that situation.

17. I don't understand your desire
to turn a completely innocent request for information into a contentious argument.

It's pointless.

18. Why are you participating in a thread that you consider to be pointless?
Edited on Wed Jan-02-08 03:00 PM by Boojatta
Is this the only pointless thread you could find that has not yet been archived?

27. That reminds me...
Are humans red meat or white meat?

Should I get a honey glaze or some steak sauce?

28. The steak sauce is okay if it contains no flesh of non-human animals.
Honey isn't a problem for most vegetarians, but it is a problem for some vegetarians. Why not use both honey glaze and steak sauce?
