NegativeNull“Is Fish Meat?” One Justice’s Answer Shows Why the Supreme Court Is So Broken.
MxM111Fish is not meat. It is an animal. And it has muscles. The mammal muscle is traditionally called meat. Science (other than dietary) do not use word “meat” for anything. Just muscle. And dietitians use the same definition of the word meat as traditional. So, saying that “scientifically” meat is just flesh on bones is total baloney, scientifically speaking.
NeatoWell you didn't read the article and/or missed the point.
“Of course fish isn’t meat!” he boomed. “Why else do I—and millions of Catholics—eat fish on Fridays during Lent?”
“But from a scientific perspective,” I responded, “isn’t meat just the flesh of an animal? And aren’t fish animals?”
Scalia scoffed. “You’re telling me the Pope has been wrong for centuries?”
Scalia used the bible and the pope as evidence against science on a scientific question. He could have said what you did, and it'd have been accepted. But he espoused stupid reasoning that backed up his life choices. Fuck him and everyone like him that abuse their power without thought.
