I suppose it is because I have been there; eaten things my conscience didn't want me to. I can forgive people their weaknesses, but their indifferences and ideals, if they involve any type of bullying the helpless, or those who cant fight back, I can never forgive them, or maybe it is their parenting/upbringing I cant forgive. Are we not all cultural and ideological constructions? We are persuaded to create examples of people in society and use them as scapegoats, rather than treating the cause; society itself. Pandora there are NO excuses!...........RAT................ Dont be silly. I dont think you should leave. Call yourself whatever you want. You dont have to fit into a category; in fact the best people cant be! i used to feel exactly the same as you; was veggie, but would not buy calves' milk products, but ate free range eggs. Now its for my health too that I'm completely vegan, but I always was vegan in principle. I can even excuse Meat eaters if its out of weakness, ie. they agree with veganism but just cant resist their cravings. None of us are perfect, some of us have stronger wills that others. Meat eaters who outwordly condone it/promote it is another matter; they should all be shot! but anyway they're all dying of bad karma = BSE, cancer, heart disease etc!
