“He’s another self-hating American who has lost touch with reality. Being a vegan makes as much sense as being a pacifist.”
Uh oh...I just became a vegan about two weeks ago...joined the CHIPs (Coronary Health Improvement Project) program. First week I was able to completely quit one of my many hypertension/heart disease medications and after a week and a half I was able to reduce my diabetes medications by a third. Eating vegan and exercising is proven to reverse heart disease and diabetes (diet caused diseases) and extend life. After two heart attacks, diabetes, COPD, and cancer I am tired of relying on medicine to live...God gave us healthy food and bodies designed to move. I don’t even miss meat and I was a big meat eater...my last meat meal was my mother’s fried chicken :).
Each to their own.....I started eating the Caveman diet....if I stay away from flour based products and don’t eat much dairy...my cholesterol improved - in fact my doc says I have “ratio’s people would die for”...and I’m never hungry. People are different.
“I just became a vegan about two weeks ago...”
That is your choice and if you are happy with it then fine. However, forcing people to consume less meat is not an option. People should be free to eat what they like without government interference. IMHO
