Default Becoming a vegeterian again, soon.

I've decided, as of February 1st, I'll become a vegeterian again.

I just feel pretty selfish and greedy. No one has to die for me to stay alive, that's sick. I can live a perfect and happy life without meat, and so I shall.

Lol then why are you waiting another week?









From joy to sorrow, yesterday to tomorrow, you've been there. Friends like you are rare, your touch is so gentle,
You're my guardian angel.
Like a blossoming flower spreading your wings in grace, filling my heart with power
by feeling your embrace.

Wherever the wind may blow, we will overcome this war, in times happy or sore, I will never let you go.
With a gentle warm heart and a will of stone, We'll never be apart, You'll never be alone. - John <3

Technically, vegetarians are responsible for more deaths of animals on average than meat eaters, because of the rodents killed in harvesting grain and crop illnesses that cause animals that eat them to die, and the other products that come from animals.

First of all, you shouldn't believe everything you read online. Secondly, I'll be eating the exact same foods HOWEVER the meat won't be there and I'll probably have more vegetables or Quorn etc... These are grown away from the animals industrially.
Basically, if I (or people) weren't eating them, they wouldn't exist.

I quit because my parents made bacon sandwiches every morning for the one week I managed to stay veggie for, and the to top it all off, had a barbecue at the weekend ¬_¬ My will power was very weak back then...

What I don't quite understand is why veggies eat Quorn, which is made to look like meat..?

I believe statistics online with no reason to think they're false over what, no counter evidence? Alright then.
And it's the vegetables and Quorn that can also cause animals to die. Did you read the second article? Crop harvesting and crop disease cause more animals to die than the meat industry alone.
I don't get the last point. What wouldn't exist, animals?

If you're becoming a vegetarian on the basis that you want to kill as few animals as possible, becoming a vegetarian clearly isn't the correct thing to do based on scientific studies/statistics/evidence. Though you are not directly eating animals, you're still responsible for deaths of them.
If you want to be responsible for as little amount of animal deaths as possible and you sincerely mean it, grow your own crops and don't eat mass harvested food products.
