And I'm not going to "quit pushing the lifestyle" (by which you mean blogging about it?) as I wish to stand up and speak out for the animals and see a vegetarian world. I also know that a high-raw, high-carb, low-fat vegetarian/vegan diet is the healthiest and want to see a healthier world. High carb, vegan and 30bananasaday are not "dead-ends" either, I support all 3 of those. I don't support high fat or non-vegetarian though, those are bad for you and the animals.Eric Dubayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11495527904246265068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187812747707644707.post-78449316723342551052014-03-08T23:00:22.138-08:002014-03-08T23:00:22.138-08:00well that is good... obviously we all know about f...well that is good... obviously we all know about factory farming here, so you should quit bring it up!

I agree for the most part with the article Half Navajo. The vegetarian step is the most important. I have found that a high-raw, high-carb, low-fat vegetarian diet is what works best for me. Similar to what was recommended in the article, I eat lots of raw fruits and veg, some cooked rice, potatoes, and veg, sparingly pastas, breads, nuts and seeds, and once in a great while I'll have something with dairy/egg in it. I have done 100% raw vegan for extended periods of time and felt quite good, but over time it gets boring, difficult to eat socially, expensive, and smashing in enough calories to stay energized all the time is easier said than done. In India where cows are worshiped they are given daily massages and treated very well, the calves drink all the milk they need and only then will the farmers take some left-over milk for their families. When treated this way I think dairy is an acceptable ethical option, it's the factory farming methods that are cruel and inexcusable.

It break...I can't watch this disturbing movie. It breaks my heart, I know I've seen parts of it and others like it. Animal eating and sacrifice are a part of our history, that of what we are taught. The norm of society is to suppress these other species considered food with no thought for their consciousness. What we do to the other species we do to ourselves, to digest through our bodies and minds, and to suffer in ways unknown but likely worked through with our dispassionate dreams. <br /><br />On a general note, I find it peculiar that vegan, and non animal eaters are ridiculed more than meat eaters. There is a false front in this to promulgate a species divide. There is an unnamed prejudice that creates a ridiculous perception of the divide of species. As MLK says, it is a ridiculous idea that specific animals or any specific species be treated in a poor manner, degraded and slaughtered with mindless abandon. But we as a species do it to others. The politics may explain that it is the most convenient and economically viable food source. That lacks higher thought. Maybe the vision of Peter in "The Acts" of the Bible seeing the heavens open with animals aloft and then roughly translated "They're yours. Eat," has value when the meal is received in a state of grace as precious and with thankfulness. The American Indian's and other's did as much. Again, though, these cultures never developed slaughterhouses or factory farms.<br /><br />I'm no expert, other than I consider myself a happy eater who for the most part eats responsibly. A diet close to life helps to stay in touch with the life in the body. Eating fresh anything has value and a natural appeal. Fresh food can only be received for eating within a state of grace because it takes special preparation, recognizing where it came from and making sure it is eaten in the right way at the right time when it is most fresh. This explains how fresh fruits and vegetables help heal. Fresh grains stabilize and energize. These things have some if not a large part of their life still in them. They're still living. Fresh meat, on the other hand, is defined as dead animal or fish. Meat was something with eyes that saw death. That’s the challenge of eating meat. A food that saw its life flash before its eyes and dies, looses it's freshness and resembles death through decay. I'm not surprised really by the cannibalisms of those who hacked off and ate parts of unfortunate tribal neighbors and visitors as described in the book Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad or the likeliness of denigrate beings or secret sect members that eat live creatures and drink their blood, to avoid "tasting" death. Their meal has a relish for the terror, and the adrenaline laced texture, while alive. The Christians albeit in a ceremoniously gracious way share bread and wine to eat the body and drink the blood and never taste death.<br /><br />The man Jesus, I've also heard it said and read, as also mentioned earlier here, was thought to be an Essene and they were known to be vegan. On one occasion, he sought to get away from crowds and they followed him to a remote place. Everyone started to get hungry. Being compassionate, he took the two loaves of bread and five fish or so, and after giving thanks, remember this helps in the preparation of fresh food, broke the loaves and gave them to his disciples. He was gracious with food. The story goes that the disciples broke off bits and pieces for a crowd of 4,000 or 5,000 to eat fresh bread and fresh fish. He and the Essene group were clearly compassionate and in touch with a higher consciousness. This famous miracle story brings graciousness in the equation of finding fulfilling food. Yeah, this movie lacks that grace. I can tell without watching it. The movie seems to beg for the amazing attitude of thankfulness that gives us the most gracious intent in choosing what to eat.Skylarkhttp://www.skylarkingit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187812747707644707.post-3342928554638113122012-10-21T08:20:58.084-07:002012-10-21T08:20:58.084-07:00Hey Cat, thanks for your message, glad to hear you...Hey Cat, thanks for your message, glad to hear you're starting to question these things! As for your question "shouldn't it be all or nothing?" I say an emphatic No! Do you eat all corpses, or just some corpses? Do you eat dog, cat, rat and bat or just chicken, pig, cow and fish? Shouldn't it be all or nothing? :)<br /><br />For another example, imagine I own 1 leather jacket but I eat vegan my entire life. Compare this to a non-vegan who owns 0 leather jackets. The average meat-eater will eat over 25,000 animals in their lifetime. Therefore the vegan with 1 leather jacket is responsible for 1 animal death, but the meat-eater without a leather jacket is responsible for 25,000. So to say "shouldn't it be all or nothing?" is to suggest killing 1 animal is equal to killing 25,000. I would have to disagree, and say even going a couple days or one day a week without meat is well-worth it! Most everyone including myself had to transition into this vegan lifestyle. It's not about "all or nothing," it's about consistently making better and better choices.<br /><br />Congratulations on potentially going vegan soon :) For more info and inspiration check out these other 18 articles I've written/compiled on the subject:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.atlanteanconspiracy.com/search/label/Veganism" rel="nofollow">Veganism</a>Eric Dubayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11495527904246265068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187812747707644707.post-45057084677515831992012-10-21T06:33:08.340-07:002012-10-21T06:33:08.340-07:00I've been watching Earthlings for the first ti...I've been watching Earthlings for the first time today; though it's not the first time that I've questioned my meat-eating ways.<br /><br />The description of other animals as 'nations' really struck a chord with me. I would argue (although in a less bigoted way than the anonymous poster above), that nations eating other nations surely provides enough of an argument to say that it's OK for people to eat meat. But scientific evidence does suggest that we're not meant for this. I think I'm at a standstill there because I've eaten meat my entire life.<br /><br />Other species have been hunted by humans for hundreds of years, for food and for materials made from the skins and bones. What I have found curious about some of my friends who are vegans, is that they will buy leather products. Shouldn't it be all or nothing?<br /><br />This is intended to be an unoffensive post; I am looking for opinions, and not to be smote for being brought up with meat my entire life! I would like to be a vegan, though I am unsure of any specific 'requirements'.Catnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187812747707644707.post-48425322408612011902012-01-19T17:23:07.164-08:002012-01-19T17:23:07.164-08:00Your case study involving 5 people doesn't pro...Your case study involving 5 people doesn't prove anything. Google "the China Study" to see a case study of the largest population in the world. Many things can cause cancer as well, cell phones, microwaves, deodorants, chemical cleansers/lotions/cosmetics etc. Not to mention just cutting out meat isn't enough to eliminate cancers. If they were still drinking coke, pepsi and milk, eating chips, candy, cheese and other junk foods, simply cutting out meat isn't enough. Also they probably weren't vegetarian their whole lives. Sorry to hear about your loss, but keep researching and you'll find no amount of flesh-eating is necessary or healthy for human diet.

And I who am now killing you will become an animal, and you will kill me." <br /><br />Here's a solution I read to giving meat eaters their meat without having to kill anything, recommended by A.C. Bhaktivendanta Swami Prabhupada: "Why should you kill the cow? Let the cow be protected. You can take the cow's milk and use this milk for making so many delicious preparations... As far as meat-eating is concerned, every cow will die --- so you just wait a while, and there will be so many dead cows. Then you can take all the dead cows and eat." <br />Sounds gross, but i guess it's no different than killing a cow and feasting on its dead carcass.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187812747707644707.post-16231966011488677402011-11-25T13:40:47.936-08:002011-11-25T13:40:47.936-08:00On the contrary druv.

Plants don't have mothers that grieve when their children are murdered. Plants don't have eyes for seeing, ears for hearing, noses for smelling, brains for thinking, nervous systems for feeling or feet for running. Fruits and vegetables constantly replenish themselves and continue the process of life. Killing an animal to eat its corpse ends the process of life.

In many provinces in India everyone is vegetarian! No animals suffer from misuse, abuse, and murder, and no humans suffer from the wide range of meat-related illnesses.<br /><br /><i>I do not take more than I need. Some humans do and you should concentrate your efforts on that. </i><br /><br />Yes you do take more than you need. Every glass of milk you drink was meant for a newborn calf, not an adult human. Every piece of flesh you consume is "more than you need," because you don't need <b>any</b> to survive and thrive. <br /><br /><i>How about the Eskimo tribes that eat little to no vegetables surviving on blubber and whale meat.</i><br /><br />Yeah how about them? They're all over-weight, out of shape, and die young. Show me a fit old Eskimo. I can show you plenty of fit old vegans.<br /><br /><i>Eating my salad last at dinner let's my stomach know turn off the acid, no more acid reflux. Meat should be the smallest portion on the dinner plate</i><br /><br />Correct, it should be so small that you can't see it. It should be so small that it's non-existent, then your stomach really knows to turn off the acid. I'm glad you acknowledge the benefits of your salad, but you refuse to acknowledge the fact that meat has no health benefits. I can type you a list of diseases that are exclusive to flesh-eaters and you can't tell me one single disease exclusive to vegans. Because there isn't one. Veganism is healthy and how humans are meant to eat. <br /><br /><i>You have no right to tell me how to live unless it violates your rights somehow.</i><br /><br />You're violating the rights of innocent, defenseless creatures but your speciesist mentality can't comprehend that. I'm speaking up for animals who can't speak up for themselves. Actually they do speak up - they cry, scream, and run away from you terrified for their lives like any sentient creature when you try to murder them. But since they don't speak English you deny that they are sovereign conscious beings worthy of love and respect. <br /><br /><i>That being said you could see how big my heart is if you tried to eat my dogs.</i><br /><br />And here is the apex of your selfish hypocritical mentality. You claim to have a "big heart" and you'd apparently stand up for your dogs if I tried to murder them, but when it comes to chickens, cows, pigs, deer and other animals, they're off your love-list. You would gladly kill those animals to feed <b>your</b> dogs. You would gladly kill those animals to feed <b>your</b> family. Since you don't own those wild animals, your "big heart" doesn't extend to them! Your big selfish hypocritical heart stands up for those beings whom you consider "yours" meanwhile you shamelessly murder and eat other animals that you don't consider "yours."Eric Dubayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11495527904246265068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187812747707644707.post-20687972361108265542011-11-22T12:52:09.594-08:002011-11-22T12:52:09.594-08:00Oh and I only use guns to protect myself, I use a ...Oh and I only use guns to protect myself, I use a bow and arrow and also spear.

Get a life. Does a lion ask a gazelle's permission? No. A lion would eat your ass if it were hungry. If you want to pretend you are not part of the food chain turn your back on a tiger. One less vegan and my point is made.<br />Unprotected anything is vulnerable to a predator you all should know that. Animals use cunning, shyness, sense of smell, hearing and some animals even use technology. http://www.livescience.com/9761-10-animals-tools.html<br />Your buckets carry no water my friends. We all end up as somethings dinner sometime. It is naive to think world suffering could end with veganism.<br />I do not take more than I need. Some humans do and you should concentrate your efforts on that. Not the suffering a field mouse feels being picked apart by a barn owl.<br />Were native americans so stupid also? How about the Eskimo tribes that eat little to no vegetables surviving on blubber and whale meat. True omnivores utilize the whole harvest "rooter to the tooter". And when you eat nutrient dense food you don't get nutrient deficiencies or disease as most call it. I have not seen a doctor in years and am in very good health, movements are great too. Eating my salad last at dinner let's my stomach know turn off the acid, no more acid reflux.<br />Meat should be the smallest portion on the dinner plate, assuming you don't graze (how an ass would) in a field.<br />But my whole point is if I don't take more than I need the amount of meat it takes to feed my family ofwith a wife and 3 children is sustainable and healthy. Especially considering the amounts of wild and gardened vegetables fruits greens and roots that we also consume.<br />You have no right to tell me how to live unless it violates your rights somehow. That being said you could see how big my heart is if you tried to eat my dogs. If you wanted to eat me for dinner and could I guess I would have little say or feeling about it, and the sun would still rise and fall ying and yang.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187812747707644707.post-24880310309386730262011-11-21T23:57:33.105-08:002011-11-21T23:57:33.105-08:00We (the rest of us) are omnivores and have a right...<i>We (the rest of us) are omnivores and have a right to eat meat if we choose.</i><br /><br />Do I have the right to eat YOU if I choose? If I decide I want to have you for dinner, will you plank across my table while I stab you to death? Or will you run away, frightened like every other sentient animal that doesn't want to be your dinner? It is absolutely NOT "your right to eat meat if you choose." But it is the right of every sentient creature to live it's life free from your "survivalist" murder. <br /><br /><i>It sounds to me like you and druv are trying to talk down to me from some platform or high horse. I am an anarchist who knows truly the evils of the industries that rape and torture. Your website is one of my playgrounds, a little respect please.</i><br /><br />Like the respect you show our animal friends? It only sounds like we're talking down to you because you murder our innocent, defenseless friends and eat them. Engaging in immoral behavior tends to make people feel inferior to those who don't. Do you have a pet? Would you mind if I murdered it and ate it? A little respect please.<br /><br /><i>I think that my philosophy of self sufficiency is why I consider myself a survivalist. Not some romantic idea of a bone collector on safari but the guy who could feed his family with no provisions just knowledge like we used to have.</i><br /><br />A true survivalist would plant as many seeds as possible and grow enough food for his family, his neighborhood, and all the local wildlife as well. A true survivalist would store massive amounts of clean water and seeds to last through any situation. A true survivalist has a knowledge of wild plants and edibles so that they can survive on the abundance of "weeds" that grow everywhere:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdtOFkMQzzQ" rel="nofollow">Wild Free Food and Medicine</a><br /><br />A true survivalist would realize that hunting is an unsustainable, unhealthy, unnatural, uncompassionate activity and not something to be proud of. <br /><br /><i>I appreciate the harvest and I hope to die the way I would take a deer.</i><br /><br />I hope so too.

Some primates kill other animals and relish in eating the flesh.</i><br /><br />Primates like yourself? Do you "relish" in eating other animal's flesh? Or do you use "relish" to hide the taste of death? A true omnivore like a bear will take a fish out of the water and swallow it whole, uncooked, scales, bones, fins, and everything. When a lion kills an herbivore for food, it tears right into the stomach area to eat the organs that are filled with blood and nutrients. While eating the raw stomach, liver, intestines, etc., the lion laps the blood in the process of eating the dead animal's flesh. They will NOT eat cooked meat. If you're a true omnivore as you claim to be, then catch a fish with your hands, using your non-existent claws, bite into it with your non-existent fangs while it's still alive like every other omnivore, and swallow it skin, bones, and blood... practice what you preach... then put it on YouTube and I'll admit that you're a true "survivalist." <br /><br />If you have to use technology to kill an animal, then skin it, drain it's blood, pick and choose which meat portions you'll eat, clean it, cook it and season it with vegetarian herbs and spices, then you're NOT an omnivore. You're just a non-compassionate bully parasite with a gun and a flair for hiding the taste of rotting flesh in the kitchen.<br /><br /><i>Cows have four stomachs to digest the cellulose which vegetarians struggle with.</i><br /><br />Meat-eaters have digestion problems like acid reflux and ulcers from their low pH diet; frugivore / herbivores do not. Who are these "struggling" vegetarians you speak of so desperately in need of 3 more stomachs? I've been vegetarian for years which cleared up my acid reflux and now my digestion and elimination is top-notch and I feel energized and the healthiest I've ever been. I never get sick, never take medicine, and never see a doctor, but apparently I'd better look into "stomach augmentation" surgery so I can be more bovine.Eric Dubayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11495527904246265068noreply@blogger.com
