They don't satisfy all of the requirements of Francione, but their goal is the abolition of the use of sentient nonhumans by humans. It would be wonderfully dramatic to be able to say: I'm going to fight for animals rather than for language , but it's not that clear cut. And it usually involves exchanges with non-vegans.

" On Atheism and Veganism " created what was for the most part a respectful, interesting discussion that brought up a couple of items I'd like to clarify or explore. First off, I began the post with, "For me, atheism and veganism go hand-in-hand." But in my vegan advocacy that's the perfect place to begin (or end).

The tag line is: "Challenging oppression and injustice, against nonhuman animals, humans, and earth — one vegan, environmentalist, feminist, social-justice-loving, all-around-progressive post at a time. Generous helpings of snark and thoughtfulness alike provided at no extra charge."

While spending hours in the car I've been thinking about various issues related to sentient nonhumans, animal rights and veganism. And vegans are accused of imposing our belief systems and brainwashing kids? Why is the vegan message the harmful one that can get one fired from teaching? What kind of lesson is that?

I understand this is a children's book, but particularly if you're trying to be a voice for animals, it would behoove you to make connections that might be missed otherwise. For instance, the animals are enslaved. I'm giving the book a vegan/animal rights message because that's my lens. Or any vegan message.

I want to talk about why we shouldn't be using animals and that it's infinitely easier to be a vegan than it was 20 years ago. With more than 2 million members across the globe, PETA is the largest animal advocacy group and comparable in size to the human rights organization, Amnesty International.

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. Spiritual beliefs?
