Guest guest Posted June 18, 2001 Report Share Posted June 18, 2001 Hi Sas, Lots and lots of questions!!!!!! B-day is on 30th July, I'm a fiery Leo Vegan purely for ethical reasons, I think it sucks that we use and abuse non-humans in the way that we do.. we consider ourselves superior to them, it's like 'bullies in a playground' as River Phoenix said. In general, people are extremely arrogant, the thought of giving animals at least some consideration would be too much for the average human being, it's easier to just convince yourself animals were put on the earth to use as we wish, quite convienient. Human domination is the ultimate cause of the world's problems, our desire to possess things, whether it be non-humans/humans or land and exploit it at our will leads to corruption and war. If we're to have world peace we'll have to learn to drop our supercilious attitude. . Hell.. we even dictate whether or not animals have souls. Did anyone see Organ Farm on ITV last night? It was about the use of pigs as heart donors, another example of humans assuming primary status. SUPPOSEDLY saving our own species at the expense of another. Look at the problems superiority causes, sexism, rascism, ageism, speciesism.... Maybe if animals could talk things would be different..? Answers to what u asked; Have a vegetarian mum and bro, the ocassional arguement about dairy and eggs but nothing too serious coz most of the time they'll opt for dairy free. Dad doesn't eat meat however, he thinks it's ok to eat fish coz " fish eat fish " (?!?!) *cough* bull *cough* sh*t! Both half bro and sis won't eat meat either but don't seem to mind if it's hidden in biscuits, cakes etc etc Isn't good around here for veganz, the only veggie cafe we had was just recently converted into a meat zone. Have been to " Food For Friends " in Brighton which seemed very nice, anyone been there? Couldn't possibly date a carnivore, imagine if u were having a snog fest and he/she'd just been to KFC!! ughh. When u feel passionately about veganism I'd imagine dating a meatie would be a recipe fer disaster unless they're open minded enough to change. Have met a real lover-ly vegan lad (online) and am gonna meet him in the summer holiday, spoke for the first time on PHONE last night SOOO FREAKY!! We might even go hunt sabbing Anywayz Sas, when's ur b-day, how long u been vegan and do u think I'm completely crazy?! I sure hope so!!!!!! Peace to the people and the animals, Adios Amigos ~*Helen*~ - Sue Grayson vegan-network Monday, June 18, 2001 12:59 AM [100% veg*n ] Re: Yo V ganz ! Wilkommen!! Yay!! Another 18 year old!

" I take it then, he doesn't eat vegetarian fish (Tilapia for example). So only carnivorous fish..... that's most of them. RM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
