Reasons to go vegan:
1. Animals have to live in a little cage for their whole life.
2. Millions of baby roosters are thrown in the grinder because they're useless.
3. Calves are taken away from their mum and slaughtered, so you can take the cows milk for yourself, this happens one time a year for each cow, to make sure they don't stop giving milk (they need to have calves to give milk)
4. As you can see on the image, meat industry causes global warming.
5. Because meat industry wastes so much farming grounds, veganism can stop world hunger.
6. The seas are almost empty because of overfishing, 90% of the catch is bycatch (also whales, sharks and turtles that are almost extinct) and the nettings destroy the coral reefs, that are needed for life on this earth.
7. There are kinds of food that give, almost just as much proteins ad meat does and proteins are the only thing meat gives you, if you don't believe me, look at oxes or gorillas, they're vegan and healthy, scientists also say meat causes cancer.
8. It's just wrong to let animals suffer just because you're afraid to try vegan.
If you still have a reason to not go vegan, say so.
If you don't, you should go vegan right now![spoiler]*hugs monkey*[/spoiler]

Edited by Spartan 22O: 10/9/2014 5:29:51 PMMeat doesnt cause cancer. Why arent carnivores getting cancer and going extinct?? Its more likely to cause heart desease, but thats only if you sit around like a fatass. God said I can eat meat. I'll eat it. [spoiler]Genesis 9:3 Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything. [/spoiler] It tastes good, way better than shitty vegies. Do you really think that farmers would just give all the extra food from land that the slaughterhouses occupy away to starving Africans? No. They would sell it. It wouldnt get world hunger anywhere. I do agree that many animals are abused, but why is not eating meat helping? Theyr not just gonna stop killing cows because a few ppl dont wanna continue to eat meat. I consider it sort of an avenging, because now that I drink the milk, that calf died for a reason, and not just for the milk to be thrown out. I like my meat. Your tree hugging ideologies wont make me stop eating meat. I also think it's wrong to force your opinions and/or beliefs upon others. Im guessing you're an atheist, so that's weird that you would go against one of your own defenses.

So I personally emptied the oceans, contributed to global warming, and have cancer from my cheezburgrs? [spoiler]Nice[/spoiler]

Edited by Pocky Hunter: 10/10/2014 1:07:22 AMI think it's wrong to murder poor helpless vegetation! People actually plant entire crops and then slaughter them in massive quantities. Plants actually emit a high pitched noise that sounds like screaming when cut.
-
Personally I want to thank the vegans of the world. Thanks to you I can now buy twice as much meat and not have to feel guilty about taking it from another man or woman. So thank you. More for me
-
"The seas are almost empty..." I laughed at this one.
-
If we are not meant to eat meat why have we evolved to eat meat, we have teeth designed to eat meat, do you think a lion thinks about killing a zebra, no it doesn't
-
Hey what about lions r u saying they should be vegan
-
It's the circle of life. Plants are living things too.
-
Good to see another older face from bnet..... And that you still hug monkeys.
-
Case is closed..

You should have listened to your mother And ate your veggies when you were younger You should have listened to your parents And doubled up on your peas and carrots Even though I eat meat I appreciate the irony Now that the cows are going mad The vegetarians are laughing at us now Well this will just make you want to hate them even more But if you indulge in that You're no smarter than the slab of beef you eat The one that's now driving you mad I hate to be an I told you so but I f*cking told you so Meat is murder and it's killing you Now what the hell are you going to do?
-
I can never go vegan due to my allergies to fruits and veggies. Its an immunoreaction to the pollen and a few other chemicals commonly found in plants. not all animals are living in small cages, just ask about the deer in New Mexico
-
Is this a reasen
-
*looks around aimlessly* Don't mind me, i'm just marveling at the shitstorm that this topic has created.

USA USA USA USA USA USA USA

-
Plants have lives too! So you're not a true vegan!
-
Okay, I'll go cannibal. [spoiler]PS, you're my first meal.[/spoiler]

Reasons not to go Vegan: Steak, Bacon and Burgers
-
You also get powers, as vegans are better then everyone else.
-
tl;dr You can't handle the meat. Also, if I had to kill them myself I wouldn't eat meat. All that going vegan would achieve is me wasting a shit ton of my time going out of my way and spending money I don't have.
-
OP is 16 people, give him or her as few months, they will come back about being gotten free... or how awesome one direction is
-
I enjoy a nice very rare steak, salami, burgers, bacon, sausage, Turkey, grilled chicken, fried chicken, salmon and eggs to much.
-
There are no reasons

My friend recently went vegan. He's always complaining about how hungry he is. Personally, I don't give a shit about animals I'll never see.
