Vegan (alt.food.vegan) This newsgroup exists to share ideas and issues of concern among vegans. We are always happy to share our recipes- perhaps especially with omnivores who are simply curious- or even better, accomodating a vegan guest for a meal!

Wrong. You've offered no proof at all. You've merely repeated the same
thing over and over. Repetition doesn't make something true. It only
makes false information seem more credible to cognitively-challenged
people. Like you.

He's spot on. "Saving all the animals" is bullshit when you eat
machine-harvested rice, other grains, and legumes. "Fighting against
wasting resources" is bullshit when you use processed soy protein (Yves
ground Italian sausage). "Peaceful harvest" is bullshit when you
purchase tropical fruits like plantains and other produce grown on
commercial farms from supermarkets. Everything you say is different from
what you do. You talk the talk, but you sure as hell don't walk the
walk. Like other sanctimonious holy rollers, you seem to have a pretty
hard time practicing what you preach. You're a rank and disgusting
hypocrite.

What you quoted above was a quote from a popular
vegan author. The same page says:
"The term vegan was originally coined to differentiate
those vegetarians who (primarily for ethical or
environmental reasons) sought to eliminate all
animal products in all areas of their lives from those
who simply avoided eating meat.

Yeah, right. In other words bullshit. If someone does not

not part of it. Duh.

I think I'll wait for it to appear in the dictionary, which does

None of us eat free of cds currently. It's just that
vegans have way less than meat eaters. So calm

veganism?

Certainly not you, since you're already a vegan who
pretends not to be.

It's only racist if said from a white person
to a black person. On the internet we all
have the same colour, by the way.

Because it's part of a belief system, which other people, without all
the semantic hang-ups you have, would call a religion.

You raised the issue of what people think of themselves, which misses
the issue of what distinguishes something as being religion. Personal
subscription doesn't make something a religion. You snipped the context
which conveyed my point:
The issue is whether or not it fits the definition. A religion
is an organized belief system based on certain tenets of faith;
a personal set or institutionalized system of attitudes,
beliefs, and practices; scrupulous conformity; or a cause,
principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith.
Veganism fits every single aspect of those definitions.

BTW, "CARD-CARRYING" atheism is also religion.

No, I disabused your error, which you lifted from vegan activist sites,
that animals require 10-16 pounds of feed to make a pound of meat. I
showed you that the ratio for livestock is nearly identical to the one
for putting a pound of meat on a vegan.

[usual suspect:]
INTERracial is preferable, since we're dealing with more than two races
here. You have not made a case that the Swintons were prosecuted for the
color of their skin. The facts of their case are such that anyone would
have been charged and prosecuted for what they did. Skin color is not an
excuse for starving children.

Why are you comparing fattening a cow to fattening up
a vegan? Are you a cannibal? Let's compare pound
of food with pound of food. Or amounts of crops needed
to make our final foods (meat vs vegan of course).

That's right, don't be SEXIST usual. Most of the time
I'd just roll my eyes and not give a shit, but if you're
playing the ism card, I will too (until it's tiring!).

The ratios are similar. For some stupid reason (disinformation),
activists prate that takes infinitely more resources to put a pound on
any other organism than it takes to put on a human. Animal physiology is
quite similar, though there are some metabolic differences between species.

> Are you a cannibal?


No.

> Let's compare pound of food with pound of food.


I've done that by showing that your Yves processed soy protein isn't a
pound for pound product from soybeans. Like seitan, it takes 8-12 pounds
of raw product to make a final product. I don't hear you bitching about
wasting all that grain or all that soy even though it's more than twice
as "wasteful" according to your own standard than various meats. And
that's ignoring grass-fed ruminants and wild game -- which consume NO
grain or soy. Further, your Yves fake meat is shipped all the way across
Canada. It's made in Vancouver, you reside in Toronto.

> Or amounts of crops needed
> to make our final foods (meat vs vegan of course).


You're seeking to compare apples to oranges again. Compare the meat Rick
eats to your phony-meat diet. His beef isn't finished on grains or soy,
so the grain/soy:meat ratio is nil -- and no CDs. It's 100% grass-fed
right down the road from him so no CDs from transportation, either. You,
otoh, eat Yves fake soy sausage. It's processed from soybeans. It's not
a 1:1 ratio. It's shipped all the way across Vancouver to Toronto before
you get your grubby paws on it. It's responsible for CDs from the soy
fields to the storage facilities to the processing facilities to the
warehouses to the grocery store where you buy it (all that storage
incurs CDs -- ask your local health inspection agency about proactive
pest control measures required for food storage facilities).

Rick's diet: few if any CDs, low feed:finished product ratio.
Your diet: many CDs, high feed:finished product ratio.

I know exactly what you liberals "get at."

At least you're honest that you're up to it. Most liberals are far more
underhanded about it. See Harry Reid.

It wasn't meant racially, but it was ageist. If you want
to complain about isms, you'll have to stop them
yourself. You've made sizeist (fatso) remarks,
racist (you're yellow James) remarks, and sexist
(bitch) remarks. Do you really want to go down
this road?

Tu quoque fallacy.

To Dreck Nask, the most obese vegan on the entire planet. He is prima
facie evidence that veganism isn't inherently healthy, and that veganism
doesn't inherently lead to weight loss.

> racist (you're yellow James) remarks,


Reference to his cowardice, not to race.

Nonsense, I haven't used it since you mentioned
race. I meant it ageistly.

So what if he's fat (if he really is, that is), you're
still being sizeist.

=====================
You haven't any facts to write, killer. But, if you feel you can't respond
to one of my points, you should note the snipping. Instead, you try to
dishonestly pretend that you didn't get caught in one of your lys by
changing the post.

=====================
ROTFLMAO That;s the point fool! Your definition is just yours, to make
*you* feel good! It has nothing to do with the real word, or the lifestyle
it entails. *YOU* are too selfish and lazy to actually be vegan....
