"Exploring the Intersection of Personal Beliefs and Veganism: Understanding the Ethical Treatment of Animals"

Reddit Animals

MARCH 28, 2023

If you are wondering whether veganism aligns with your personal beliefs, consider the following question: Do you think that it is acceptable to inflict harm and take the lives of animals for reasons that are not necessary? Ultimately, it is up to each individual to align their actions with their beliefs regarding animal welfare.

On Going Vegan

NOVEMBER 1, 2009

First I have to say that my husband and I were in our courtyard last night, with wine, vegan pizza with shiitakes, portobellos and chanterelles (still working through that five-pound bag of Daiya cheese), and Diana Krall playing. But today's post is about World Vegan Day, so onward. Some go vegetarian first, then vegan.

On Veganism and Adoption

OCTOBER 13, 2010

I don't, for the record, consider this issue analogous to omnivores dating vegans, as my husband went vegan overnight three years ago this month. I think vegans dating omnivores is a great idea as it's an opportunity to support someone in a way that you really can't support anyone else. And this is where I think about veganism.

Vegans are now on the mainstream's radar, and unlike some vegans, I do care about what goes on in the mainstream.

Well, I think the grenade metaphor also applies to conversion to veganism.

What does this mean? And I don't judge him.

On Being Vegan "Friendly"

On the Vegan "Diet"

AUGUST 12, 2009

My dogs eat vegan dog food. To say they are vegans is odd to me, though I have done that as the distinction is lost on most people and for the sake of a swift message it does the job. When I first saw PCRM's " Kickstart Your Health With a Vegan Diet " campaign, I let out a bit of a sigh. At least they didn't say "vegan cleanse."

Though there are plenty of sites by and for vegans, I like this idea because it provides a built-in opportunity to convert people to veganism because you are side-by-side with them, so to speak, on the same site. Vegans seek out vegan sites, but a nonvegan looking for a chocolate cake recipe probably won't seek out a vegan site.

She knows going vegan is the right thing to do.
