Nephew "A" has PC parents and a food nazi mother who hates meat and butter and sugar; they are not vegan but have little in the way of meat and no dessert. PC Mom and Dad are both quite overweight and both the kids are short for their age and not so quick.

Nephew "B" has a Mom who feeds him little bits of food when they go out for a walk, and made sure from an early age that he had some meat every day. Mom and Dad are both in normal weight range and "B" is much stronger, tougher and faster physically and much sharper mentally than his cousin of the same age, "A".

I would be afraid to calculate such a number. The sheer goodness might make my brain explode.

"...that still has its lifeblood in it."

You're not normally that deceptive, are you?

Since 1991, I have not eaten meat or fowl. I will eat fish, particularly salmon which is healthy for my heart. I don't force what I choose to do on others, it is just right for me.

Not normally.

Of course, unless you are Kosher, there's a good chance that you are violating this biblical law.

This is a term I don't know. Could you share a bit more? Tx.

Leave it to someone who intentionally distorts Scripture to tell me how to intepret it.

Put the rest of the verse out there.... You can eat meat, just not with the blood in it.

Gen 9:3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. 4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.

>Dogs cn survive on a vegetarian diet, if it's suplemented with vitamins.<

They might survive, but they sure don't thrive. Not only that, if you stick a piece of liver and a piece of bread down in front of a dog, you better not be between him and the liver!

Most rastas are either vegetarians or vegans. If any eat meat, they eat fish. Pork is a big time sin. I would say most that come to where I work are vegetarians and not vegans. Most rasta vegans are very nice, very few are insulting and rude. Oh btw, Seventh Day Adventists are mostly vegetarians too but somehow the rasta children seem more advanced (probably due to the homeschooling).

I eat very little meat - just don't have a taste for it. But whole grains, vegies, fruits? Yum.

How about dogs? Dogs eat their own feces.

"The vegan diet can provide you with more energy, nutrition, and is bursting with goodness."

Wow. It's bursting with vegany goodness. I'm sold! ;-)

Tofu: It's not just for breakfast any more!
