My sister is a vegan, and forced it on her kids. A nutrient only found in meat or excessive amounts of cheese prevents ADHD in boys, from Mother Earth News a few years back. Her son got ADHD.
She said she would not eat anything that had eyes. I said, how about potatoes??
If it has eyes, eat 'em!!!

Ayway there has been good points brought up. If i was to eat meat itwould comefrom a small farm that had free range everything. Even after twenty four years I still have a craving for meat. Some might say that is enough proof that I'm wrong, But I still had a craving for killing those that vandalised my car (which has killed many insects). Like I said earlier there is no such thing as real vegan and what makes it difficult for me I can see both sides of the arguement. But not when it comes to intensive farming, battery hens, the slaying of male chicks, which will soon be food for the battery hen and the veal trade.

Thanks for all your contributions. I've heard all the dialogue before after all this time.

'The penguins do not reason.' You say. This is what I meant about instinct is stronger than reason, especially in non-human animals and certain humans.

Mans ill-gotten gains as far as milk is concerned are directly connected to the scaring and suffering of the calf.
Nature intended milk for the young, not for some pussy to put in his tea.
We can be good sovereigns or bad ones. This is not the act of a good sovereign. If God made man in his image then we should treat animals the same way we would expect a good God to treat us.
