What Are Your Thoughts On Vegans? Or Going Vegan ?

Do you have concerns about animal abuse by eating meat or using animal products?

Do you feel strongly that it is your right to eat meat?

I am trying to become vegan now and it is my personal choice.  Before, I eat fish, meats and processed food a lot  and I thought I can't live a day without eating them and because of that, in my early age, I got cyst on my left breast. I do not blame meat and fish alone but my bad eating habits. I am reaping what I put inside my body and I regret it. Now, I realize that at the very beginning, when Adam and Eve is still in the Garden of Eden, they only eat vegetables and fruits by then, Man only start eating meat and fishes after the flood because during that time, earth was wipe by the flood.  Besides, fruits and vegetables has the enough nutrients our body needs to become healthy.  As what the quotation says, "prevention is better than cure". The advocacy of vegan people to protect animals is good. I guess, if you are a meat and fish eater, you will not consider that eating them is not an animal abuse but if you will widen you perspective, considering that those animals has their own family and they have right to live as well, you will realize that it is a form of animal cruelty as well.  Trying to become vegan will not just protect the welfare of animals but also can protect yourself from the bad cholesterol you can get in eating them.

Not thoughts at all actually. Lots of the vegan people I know, don't eat meat, but they eat fishes and other sea fishes. I guess fishes have no life.  Undecided Animals there are in our world for some reason. I don't like that we  are killing them so we can eat, but this is who we are. Yes we don't have to kill that many, but their meat is important for our health. It's sounds sad but if you think about it's not.

Someone who eats fish can't be called as a vegetarian. He is a non-vegetarian. I am surprised by your post. Some people would consider those who eat eggs as vegetarian, but this is the first time I am hearing that some also consider fish as a vegetarian item.

The prior post that described the difference between "vegan" and "vegetarian" is accurate, as far as the use of these terms in the USA for several decades.

The other alternative of course is to enjoy eating meat. You might want to join an organization such as People Who Enjoy Eating Tasty Animals.

What Would Native American Wisdom Say About Going Vegan/Vegetarian? Would It Agree or Disagree?





Perhaps one of the most interesting revelations shared by her experience and research is the fact that "more than one tribe has creation legends which describe people as vegetarian, living in a kind of Garden of Eden. A Cherokee legend describes humans, plants, and animals as having lived in the beginning in 'equality and mutual helpfulness.'

--------------------

 Not so fast of course.  Everyone used the cooking pot, even if it was essentially a hole in the ground.  It was filled with water and then heated perhaps for hours at least in order to process whatever could be added.  That is pretty flexible and if you are a grower of corn beans and squash, all those would go in first to produce a porridge like stew. 
 
 
To this can be added whatever else comes in including fresh game as the evening approached. The plains Indians would also cut in some pemmican as well to provide fat and protein.


The first half of this item is egregious propaganda serving up a twisted interpretation of history and a bare incitement to hatred. 
 
Labeling the past in terms of modern ideologies is even worse than the usual apologists for modernity and abhorrent.  Just recall that the chicken was not necessarily  missing in all settled communities and they were surrounded with ample wild birds including turkeys.

I agree with you friend. You are right when you say that maybe we are killing more animals than we need too. But i just wanted to say to you that there is difference between Vegetarian and Vegan. Vegans only eat vegetables and fruit, they don't eat anything that is from animal, not even fish as far as i know. Vegetarians eat fish and eggs and stuff like that, but they don't eat animal meat. Maybe i am wrong, but i think im not.

I agree with you and animals are already specified for livestock so we dob't rrally eat any animal we see. There are those that are bred for consumption and i also agree that meat is essential for our body's needs. Though i respect vegans and how they look at things. Everyone's entitled to their own decisions

What Are Your Thoughts On Vegans? Or Going Vegan ?

Do you have concerns about animal abuse by eating meat or using animal products?

Do you feel strongly that it is your right to eat meat?
Well i eat meat, and i like eating it, and that is the truth. Lion will always eat gazelle, and that is way things are made. We humans eat animals and that is only natural. If it wasn't for meat, we would not be like we are today (well that didn't turn out best for some xD). But i don't agree with animal abuse, if you need to kill it, than respect it a little bit. Respect what you eat, and be grateful. And as far as going vegan, well i could do it if i had too. But as i said i like eating meat so...

I do not trust such studies. I think that man needs any food is the main thing that it was diverse. I certainly have nothing against meat, but I don't like the situation when for food of animal slaughter. I think it's not worthy of a human being.

The only way to source edible meat is through animal slaughter. There is no other method to produce meat. Well, you can eat meat from the corpse of some animal which has died of disease, but I would strongly advice against doing so.

Going vegan should be a freely made health decision, It should not be a burden, Most of them impose lots of stress on themselves by going vegan, and then they try to impose it on others as well which is very annoying.
And you think that people on this thread aren't imposing meat eating on vegans?  They're talking about meat eating repeatedly and arguing that they have a right to it, which means nothing (if the only argument you have is that you legally can do it, you've failed).  People also seem to think that vegans mention it too much, but generally it's meat eaters that mention it, and insult vegans for literally just not eating something.  Regardless, it should be a lot easier to accept someone not doing something potentially bad than doing it.

Someone murders someone else:
"hey! Stop that!"
"I respect your beliefs, why can't you respect mine?"
"Oshit you got me"

I don't have a problem with people doing whatever they want with their bodies but I have a problem  with people telling me what to do and that I’m wrong for doing what billions of humans have done since the dawn of time.
Recently, a video was broadcast on television with a speech by dietitians, so there was mentioned a new study by British scientists who said that people who eat only plant foods have a reduced brain. Now we need to draw conclusions.
I’m not surprised at all since one of the reasons the human brain got so big was because we could consume cooked meat so it makes sense.

What do vegetarians / vegans think would happen to all those farm animals if we all ditched meat?

No profit for farmers = no food or care for all those farm animals.

Millions would just be killed or left to starve to death, several species would probably just go extinct within a few years.

Yes. I'm just annoyed by people who try to stand out from the crowd and impose their own way of life on others. Everyone must decide for himself what to eat or drink.

This is not something very recent. Historically, societies have imposed restrictions on certain types of food. Hinduism (which is perhaps the oldest religion in the earth) has a struct taboo against the consumption of beef. Hindu Brahmins refrain from consuming any sort of non-vegetarian food. Jews also have similar taboos, such as the ban on pork.

Religious people adhere to these rules in their country, but when they leave the country they can eat everything. This is not all, but there are still such cases. But where there have never been such bans and deliberately people start to refuse meat and impose it on others, it really annoys.

Can't agree with your post. Most of the Hindus living in my country (where they are a very small minority), refrain from eating beef. Also, the religious Jews abstain from non-Kosher food such as bacon, and the Muslims seldom eat foodstuff which is not certified as halal. This is applicable to all the nations, and not just Jewish and Muslim majority nations.

It's definietly good for you and I've heard many vegan meals taste great and you have all the energy.
I could stop eating cows and pigs, I wouldn't stop eating fish though.

Vegan meals can be quite tasteful, if you use the right ingredients and cook it in a proper way, just like many of the non-vegetarian meals. And there are a lot of vegan meals which are rich in protein, which allows you to skip meat altogether.

Yes, that's the type of eco-fascism I was talking about in my previous post.

That should be avoided at all costs.

Like ex-smokers complaining about smoke.
Same thing I observed in people who quit drinking. They not only impose their ideas to others, but are treated with great aggression to those who drink alcohol even in small quantities. It seems to me that in order to avoid such problems, you need to gradually use.

It's often a small mind that thinks it has a big idea.

Somewhat offtopic: does anyone else read this threads title as "what are your thought on vaginas"?

Can't imagine I'm the only one


It's just you a read. I read about vegetarianism. Maybe it's spring so you act? If your thoughts about vaginas then get up from the computer and go outside or go in the evening in a night club.
