If you visit the killing floor of a slaughterhouse, it will brand your soul for life.

For those who are still merely vegetarian and not yet vegan, I ask, what in heaven's name are you waiting for?

You, (my meat-eating friends), put your health at risk – that’s your business. But animal-based diets put the land, the water, the air, a society’s collective health, and even our collective pharmaceutical resources at risk. That’s my business. That’s everyone’s business.

Veganism isn’t just a strict vegetarian diet it is a complete philosophical viewpoint. It is practical in outlook, simple to understand and aspires to the highest environmental and spiritual values. I am sure it holds the key to a future lifestyle for a humane planetary guardianship.

1,000 cows in the U.S. are alive at night and dead in the morning. These cows on the ground are ground into feed, making their fellows not only carnivores but cannibals. Europe after Mad Cows' Disease has banned this practice. The U.S has not yet.

To consider yourself an environmentalist and still eat meat is like saying you're a philanthropist who doesn't give to charity.

If we're talking about healthcare lets talk about a healthy diet. If there is anything better in the world in dealing with a healthcare problem it's prevention! We CAN afford prevention!

I believe if the viewing of slaughter was required to eat meat, most folks would become vegetarians.
