PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, has been a campaign to influence people to go vegetarian. There is a hidden message PETA is showing too. Indirectly, PETA is belittling woman by objectifying them, by comparing them to a steak. “You are just another piece of meat someone will eat” is what PETA is hinting at. Pamela Anderson is a beautiful…

In The Cultural Ecology of India’s Sacred Cattle, Marvin Harris describes the Hindu sacredness of cows as being more influenced by economy than theology. He calculates the economic advantages and disadvantages of cows and the consequences of illegalizing cow slaughter, without considering the possibility that these may have come from theology. In the first paragraph, Harris admits that he has never been to India and all of his research is based off of reading. He admits this may lead to some…
