Why is fish not meat?

So I am the buffet with my cousins, uncle and aunt. My uncle tells his daughter to bring him any kind of meat and she comes back with fish. He says 'you're stupid I said meat not fish".

It’s flesh, and a living animal dies, which is meat for all practical purposes. But I know Catholics qualify “meat” in their abstinence laws as coming from animals that live on the land, so they include poultry in that category. So if your family is religious, that might be where [b]they’re[/b] coming from.
