The book, which I have not read, that saved Derrick Jensen 's life is called The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice, and Sustainability by Lierre Keith, who was a vegan for 20 years, suffered serious medical problems, and started feeling better when she recommenced eating animals. Throughout the book, Keith mocks vegetarians and vegans.

As I've written previously, I never pushed him to go vegan, and now that he is I don't push him to do any vegan education. It's amazing to observe as someone learns about what we humans have done to this planet in such a short period of time, and how dire the situation really is. But that's me.

I think that it's odd, for instance, that someone so ensconced in human rights does not notice the parallel when she grabs her grilled chicken caesar salad for lunch. As for cookies, well, I am at the end of week one of gluten-reduced week, and my two favorite parts were, of course, desserts. And I think they should be.

We are not people who are interested in discussing animal rights, as in, the right of sentient nonhumans to not be used by humans for potential profit, for sport or for lunch. Of course, what they are talking about and how they are changing their behavior is very frustrating for someone who doesn't believe we should be using animals at all.

My husband has two friends (a male/female couple) who are transitioning from vegetarian to vegan and I also have two friends (both women) who are transitioning from omnivore and all are dreading Thanksgiving. And of course if you correct someone and say "Dead Turkey Day," you're "buzzkill," or imposing your beliefs or being judgmental.

In the majority of cases, it is humans who are to blame for the plunging numbers of animals, and Corwin is very clear about the extent to which we have destroyed the world around us. And of course that premise is only possible because the animals (and everything else on the planet) are our "resources."

Abby, I too get very upset by stories and images of what occurs every second of every day to nonhumans and humans alike. I don't need to "remind myself" of how bad it is to bolster my commitment to veganism. So I do what I can do, beginning of course with being vegan. Thanks so much. I know it's out there.

Or printed thousands of copies of vegan leaflets. Of course, I have an emotional attachment to that one individual, Violet Rays. And you wouldn't fund a program that was very expensive per unit (human or nonhuman animal) yet you often don't think about that when you're dealing with an individual.

Of course, that also rendered her defective and she was therefore immediately "discarded." Diabetes shortens the life expectancy of human and nonhuman animals, by years. Unfortunately, Violet doesn't like her vegan food or most other food, but will eat food that smells terrible for some reason. But now, of course, I want more.

The question of course is, are you really significantly decreasing suffering? Lesson #20 We still don't know what will make a critical mass of people go vegan. But other than multi-pronged, multi-media, persistence, I have no idea what will be necessary to make most people go vegan. And this is why I write about justice instead.)

Here's what I see: Once again, as with attempts to convince the public that animal farming could ever be humane , humans are desperate to provide alternatives to consuming animals that don't include not consuming animals. That action is to opt out and go vegan. What about being torn from your family? What about being raped?

His book on atheism is among the best I have read on that topic, which is why I used it in my Philosophy of Religion course many years ago.

Latimer refers to his previous two posts where he has "documented the ethical and moral shallowness of the 'animal rights' credo itself, which is based more on an anti-human self hatred, taking the form of a 'moral' squeamishness concerned more with stamping out human 'cruelty,' no matter what the social or economic costs might be.

would you see keeping these fish confined in an aquarium as a rescue effort or as a selfish act by humans that interferes with Nature? I think my feeling on it is that it's more of a rescue effort; that we humans made the mess that endangered the species in the first place, so we should do our best to fix it.

Going vegan is the best way to combat this environmental nightmare, improve your health and stand up against the animal cruelty so prevalent in factory farms today.

If some microorganisms must be killed in the process, this is unfortunate but necessary for human life. Why should microorganisms be sacrificed rather than humans? KBJ: Nothing.

We give them human names and provide them with the same amenities we enjoy as humans. We think about what type of living conditions we want for our pets (often the same as those we want for ourselves), and try to apply that to every animal when in reality this may not be the best course of action.".

He clearly thinks that it is wrong to cause animals to suffer unnecessarily, but he appears to be somewhat ambivalent about killing animals (provided the killing is carried out humanely). Of course, when hamburgers aren't at stake, most of us think that it would be morally wrong to kill an animal for no good reason.
