"If you’d like a few references for chemicals that have been PROVEN to show effects I can supply those for you."

References from credible sources would be appreciated.

"Again the short version is by the time it’s definitively “proven” in humans it’s 25+ years later and everyone has already been past dramaticaly affected."

Do you have credible evidence from studies showing that all sorts of "harmful chemicals" are present in efficacious quantities in meat brought to market (especially animal hormones that somehow turn into human hormones)?

"The FDA is about as good at regulating as the EPA {read WORTHLESS}."

Why? Because you said so? Because some pundit-blogger says so?

"If you think no potential crop land has been altered to make way for livestock you’d be gravely mistaken."

I didn't say that; certainly there are instances of land being misused, but most of the land used for livestock is not of the high-quality soil variety.

"If you’re referring to manure being good fertilizer, cow manure is actually pretty low on the scale."

But still on the scale, and still used... Even if it is mostly used on low-quality crops used to feed livestock, it is still useful in the overall cycle, no?

"If you think the world is at 100% efficiency in terms of farmland as well you’re dreaming."

I'm not sure what post you read that from; I specifically said we were way below "100% efficiency."

"There are plenty of plants that can be eaten by humans that can grow in all types of climates. You forget people have been eating plants everywhere before the invention of refrigeration."

No, I don't. I was talking specifically about livestock feed grains versus human feed grains.
