Why I became a Vegetarian

Why I became a vegetarian and why I think the decision goes well with atheism, and why you really ought to look into it.

You can do anything you like but you are depriving your body of ESSENTIAL proteins.

[Roenazarrek]

@yasirjam1 That isn't true. We have evolved to be capable of digesting meat, not to be dependant on it. The vast majority of our digestive characteristics are that of herbivores, and plants have all the protein that we need.

meat is helthy...theres a reason its good..and allso there is a reason its helthy. its just like any other fruit, you need it to hae a healty body just as you need vitamins :)

and you cant live on pills bro, just take a look at Elvis...

@MrOlekul

No one's suggesting you need to. Plants also contain protein, without the bad cholesterol. And theres a big difference between the drugs elvis did and dietery suppliments, but you knew that alreadly. Or at least I hope you did. But the main point isn't about health its about not supporting an industry confining innocent creatures to short lives of misery fear and pain all for one's own personal pleasure. Look at the actual footage and you'll see how petty the desire for meat is.

@Roenazarrek i think a avorigde boutcher would not kill an animal to cause pain and fear. making animals suffering is not point of producing meat.

obviously you dont know much about meatindustries..the killing happens faster than the animals "fear reaction" if you dint know hwat a knife is, and sombody chopped of your head with one, you would not only die fast and painfree but you would not fear it,because you dint know hwat was about to happen.

[Roenazarrek]

@MrOlekul The point is not to cause suffering the point is to make money. And it's not individual butchers that are the problem its the factory farming industry which is the only way to accomidate the vast demand for meat. It's humourous that someone with aobut 5 spelling errors per paragraph that thinks that animals don't understand that sharp objects can cause pain is accusing me of not knowing much about the meat industry.

Lol I had to read The Jungle in highschool. I know there's food to replace meat, but it's hard to change. It's just too available lol. I just want to be more healthy in general for the sake of my pineal gland

[BrittanyOfChipettes]

I am also a vegetarian. A lot of people say that it is unhealthy but if you eat meat replacements and enough other nutrients it is healthy. It is even more healthier. I am really happy to be a vegetarian and I'm 13

@Roenazarrek mocking down on pepule for bad spelling isnt really adult ;) hwats wrong with the food industries? jes i know its about money, and guess hwat? in the modern society we need both money and food.
