This video has made me become vegaterian!

[.sarah]

yup dog house material.

I don't always agree with PITA but yes these things really go on.

Just make sure if you are becoming a vegatarian because of the cruilty to animals that you may as well become a vegan. Egg farms, milking farms (for milk, cheese, cream, yougurt, all dairy products) etc.. can be just as cruel if not worse.

I'm not vegan because I hate tofu and soy, but I still didn't want to support animal cruelty. So, I did some research and found a good organic milk & milk product company (Horizon Organic). I also use organic eggs from cage-free vegetarian-fed hens. And then for baking and cooking I use soy milk and egg substitutes, because I can't tell the difference if it's cooked

Sorry about not putting this in dog house I didn't know what the dog house was really for.
The only thing I like from dairy products is milk so it won't be very hard to become Vegen(sp?) I had my first veg meal today and tried some new stuff. The only problem with me is that I'm VERY picky!

I have now been a vegetarion for over 6 months, and yes thats the video that made me change. Hopefully I can stay this way forever, but it is hard when my freinds invite me over to there house and all they have is meat. good luck

Ok, my opinion all this vegetarian stuff:

If you've read the Bible, you'll know that God put animals on this earth for us to eat. Not to play with. lol

BUT the thing I don't agree with is how some places do it. It is extremely inhumane and I know God didn't mean for it to be that way. But He gave his people the ability to choose. Sadly, some choice the wrong.

[Flatcoatluver]

For me, I think of animals more as humans, they are always there for me and respect me. I don't think I could actually eat animals; for all that they have done for me, even though I haven’t meant those animals before. Does that kind of make sense??

No disrespect but I dont belive in the bible once so ever.

Hehe.. that's alright.. I respect your opinion on it.

Welcome to vegetarianism! I have been one for 6 years now, and videos like that have made me one. Good luck with it

[WolvesRawk]

I've seen that video before. It's so sad. I've always been vegitarian though, so it didn't cause me to not eat meat. Meat is gross. (Except fish!)

I know a lot of people feel that way. I'm not very religious though. I believe in God but that's about the extent of it.

I love animals too much to support cruelty to them. I honestly would not be vegetarian today if animals were killed humanely for their meat. But then again, that's not very possible. If I knew the meat on my plate lived a healthy life and was treated well until it's very last breath, I could eat it. But that's not the way it is, and I can't go on pretending so like I did for the first 15 years of my life. I had this weird thing where I would not eat meat if it "looked" like the animal, like if the bone was still there. I was making myself believe it wasn't really an animal.

And now I'm very happy with my decision. I am much healthier both physically as well as in state of mind - because I do not worry about what is on my dinner plate. It's a pain in the butt sometimes, but well worth it.

I feel the same as Bc_mom. I won't stop eating animals. BUT I hate the way some places do that. That's what makes me upset.

That is exactly why the small amount of meat that I eat comes from the local 4-H. I used to be a part of that program, I KNOW those animals were loved and lived wonderful lives. I still don't buy it very often, but once in awhile it's nice (plus if I don't DBF will go buy the commercially slaughtered stuff and I just don't want that in my house)

That's good! I respect people more when they care enough to do something about the cruelty, whether it be going vegetarian or buying your meat from a source like that. I don't like it when people say that they hate what's going on, but refuse to do anything about it.

THANK YOU! That is a point that so many people don't understand.

Not to say that whatever happens in the video (I'm not going to watch it) is not true, but PETA is a very unreliable source.

I'm picky too. If you want I can give you some recipes if you like to cook. Though I don't have many vegan ones, just vegetarian. I also have a book of restaurants that are vegan and vegetarian friendly and I downloaded it online. I'll try to find that for you.

There's also a member on here named veegan who is vegan.
