Being vegan because you want to live as nonviolently as possible and you don't want to contribute to violence and you don't want to respond to violence with violence is admirable to some, though refusing to support the defense of sentient nonhumans when you probably would if they were humans bothers me. Or vegan pumpkin pie.

Here's what they say about Trader Joe's eggs (definitely does not sound humane to me.) Trader Joe's, a national specialty grocer, offers a large range of vegan and soy products. I looked online and all I could find was this article on The Vegetarian Site. They also offer "Cage Free" eggs.

More likely, a flip is a shift significant enough to make the old timers who were acquainted with the original definition carp about the youngins and their wanton destruction of the English language, which for some reason they think should never change. The reality is that language is not stagnant. And I feel for the purists, trust me.

It wasn't long before The Humane Emperor came on the scene, and is still around, telling folks that with a little mental acrobatics you can include forcible breeding, captivity, separation of family, killing of day-old chicks, and of course, untimely death in the definition of "humane." That's respect. Photo from Flickr user gunp0wder.

If I told you what I spent last year doing work-wise, you probably wouldn't believe me and you'd definitely suggest I write a book about it. So he is being re-veganized (Violet's already vegan), as long as his back and leg aren't adversely affected. At least Emily the kitty, though not at all skinny, had an uneventful year.

I then promptly completely caved in and bought Wellness ' new large breed, definitely nonvegan dry food (and I always soak kibble) that has 25% protein (Natural Balance Vegetarian has 18%, and all from non-animal sources) and I've started cutting some in just in case (I'll stop at 50%).

Would the blood drinker be sinning against the principles of lactovo moral vegetarianism or just the principles of vegan moral vegetarianism? On the above definitions the wool and the milk of such animals would not be animal products. KBJ: The most that this shows is that people should be vegans rather than lactovo vegetarians.

Finally, when you read, I recommend not using your disagreement with someone about, say, the definition of violence, stop you from going out into your community and building alliances. They don't see veganism as related to their fight against dog racing, at first (or second. ).

The veracity of this statement hinges on Scott's definition of "inhumane," and that definition must be very, very restricted, and clearly unrelated to the realities of our modern factory farm system. All we do as vegans is take a reality--the reality of the sentience of cats, dogs, horses, chickens, sheep, cows, etc.
