He has not met every vegan child. I know many, and this simply isn't true. The same can be said for any diet. There are benefits and drawbacks.

I see kids like this all the time. It is amazing the lengths to which meat eaters will go to justify their craving for animal blood.

Dogs cn survive on a vegetarian diet, if it's suplemented with vitamins. Cats can't.

If not for child abuse, she should at least have been arrested for animal cruelty. A dog on a vegan diet? Did she ever hear the term carnivore?

But bacon tastes good. Pork chops taste good.

The brain needs fat to develop.

God told both Noah and Paul it was OK to kill and eat meat. Ignore Him at your peril.

Well I think it's because of people's experiences with self righteous PETA vegans.

I am a vegetarian myself, but my dog isn't. In fact, he's quite often given raw meat.

Would a vegan eat a beefeater tomato?

,,, the old saying "you are what you eat" comes to mind. I don't argue with vegetables. :)

Leftist PETA types try to turn a dietary/ethical choice into some sort of crazy Socialist agenda. Conservative vegetarians are usually very quiet about it.

Yes, and web sites like this are a start. Word to PETA: by all means, go ahead and teach that vegetarian living is compatible with Jesus' exhortation for compassion, but don't try to float the silly idea that He didn't eat meat himself, and did not encourage/enable his disciples to do the same.

This is a beefeater.



This is a beefsteak tomato.

Learn the difference, or I'm not having salad at your place. ;)

I'm moving to Texas in a year or two, where I hear that a "vegetarian" is defined as someone who cooks their meat before eating it.

If God didn't intend for us to eat cows, he wouldn't have made them slow, stupid, and ugly.

Oh, and tasty.

McDonald's Lawsuit Posterchildren!

Clearly McDonalds was negligent in pushing fattening food on those poor helpless unsuspecting kids.

(sarcasm off, when was the last time those kids ate a green vegetable?)
