Great post... welcome to the conversation.

You seem open minded enough to get it..

Are you vegan yet?

Why not?

Yes, for almost 10 yrs now. I don't try to convince others but when I see arguments being made like that I can't help but chime in because it is illogical to me. "Oh but science says you can't have low B12 levels or else....something might happen, yap yap yap"

I know I feel better and healthier and that's all that matters to me.

How do you feel about this statement:

So in conclusion a whole food plant based diet will raise your vibration by creating an alkaline environment in your body making it difficult to facilitate disease. Since we are electric in nature and we are also spiritual in nature it only makes sense that our Heath is tied to our spirituality and vise versa.
Or statements like this one:

Because those are his arguments.

This is a statement I can understand. This is the type of statement that I really think rjr777 should be putting forward instead of the other crap.

Fair point Aaron I will try to stick with the I feel better argument.

I still think high alkaline foods like beats and colorful veggies are GTO... I can’t prove scientifically but veggies seem good to eat. I know that meat gets stuck in our long digestive tracts . I think there’s some science to this that long digestive tracts are better for absorbing nutrients in veggies. While a short digestive tract in a lion is better for expelling the meat from their system which could potentially rot their innards.

On a side note food tastes better when you go vegan. I can’t provide any science on this except for my personal experience.

So my next question is to Aaron and everyone ?

Are you willing to try veganism is it makes you live longer, feel better, and makes food taste better?

I was all about letting people make their own choices.. until I watched some earthling Ed vids and there’s a difference...

People can do whatever they want until there is a victim involved. That’s when us vegans need to step in and stand up for what’s right. Animals are like toddlers/babies with no voice to stand up for themselves.

If it’s now illegal in some states to leave your dog in a hot car, then my logic tells me that butchering an animal that is sentient and eating it should also be criminal.
