Reasons to go vegan:
1. Animals have to live in a little cage for their whole life.
2. Millions of baby roosters are thrown in the grinder because they're useless.
3. Calves are taken away from their mum and slaughtered, so you can take the cows milk for yourself, this happens one time a year for each cow, to make sure they don't stop giving milk (they need to have calves to give milk)
4. As you can see on the image, meat industry causes global warming.
5. Because meat industry wastes so much farming grounds, veganism can stop world hunger.
6. The seas are almost empty because of overfishing, 90% of the catch is bycatch (also whales, sharks and turtles that are almost extinct) and the nettings destroy the coral reefs, that are needed for life on this earth.
7. There are kinds of food that give, almost just as much proteins ad meat does and proteins are the only thing meat gives you, if you don't believe me, look at oxes or gorillas, they're vegan and healthy, scientists also say meat causes cancer.
8. It's just wrong to let animals suffer just because you're afraid to try vegan.
If you still have a reason to not go vegan, say so.
If you don't, you should go vegan right now![spoiler]*hugs monkey*[/spoiler]

My friend recently went vegan. He's always complaining about how hungry he is. Personally, I don't give a shit about animals I'll never see.
-
Lol you can show me disgusting / disturbing pictures of slaughterhouses but I'll still eat meat everyday best food there is I can't live a life with eating bullshit hamburgers and all fruits and all veggies eww that's more disgusting then slaughter houses.
-
Objectively a vegan world would be better fed, just unrealistic. If we could reduce our meat intake to just one meat meal a week you get much of the benefits of tasty bacon without killing the world. The poor little porkers will still have to be slaughtered though.

Ha, OP is so funny. This is a pretty good troll.

9. You can grow a metaphorical vagina.

Plants can apparently hear themselves get eaten,so you basically let plants suffer is you eat them. Checkmate, OP.

Being Vegan won't stop world hunger, America alone produces enough for 11 billion, it's all greed
-
[u]Imo,[/u] the only real reasons to go vegan are morality related. There are no real health benefits to either vegan or meat-eating diets, the only difference is that vegan diets take more planning, if you want to keep healthy.

Plants are alive and have feelings aswell. [url=http://www.pri.org/stories/2014-01-09/new-research-plant-intelligence-may-forever-change-how-you-think-about-plants ]hell, many could argue that they are more intelligent than the cows in the slaughter house.[/url]

I drive a truck. Sometimes I pick up guts and bones from abattoirs and cart it to rendering plants where the waste is recycled. Watching them die at first, was a touch distressing, but now I am not at all affected by it. I also hunt. I won't shoot something unless I am going to use the animal for whatever purpose. I respect the animals that I kill. I don't expect to be judged on what I do. I'm sure that if many people saw what I see, they wouldn't eat meat. I respect vegans and vegetarians for the choice that they make, as it would be a tough choice. And my point?[spoiler]idk. I'm pretty drunk atm[/spoiler]

But I bet you'll play the shit out of Minecraft

Reasons to go cannibal: 1) everything a human needs to survive nutritionally is already in the body. 2) street cred 3) become alpha predator/ alpha male. Nothing says "I'm above you" than eating that thing. 4) curbing overpopulation 5) it is natural
-
The animals that are butchered are raised to die. They wouldn't survive in the world. Also, getting bacon>saving an animal raised to die
-
I'm pretty sure there was a vegan couple that put their baby on a vegan diet and it killed their baby. So ya, I'd rather eat a cheeseburger than kill babies.

Edited by Based Snake: 10/5/2014 4:19:57 PMIt's simple: I don't eat animals that have felt pain to become food. For example, I eat eggs, because the chicken embryos did not feel pain to become food. But on the other side of the coin, a pig is [i]slaughtered[/i] to become bacon, and has felt pain. So I don't eat them.

If the entire world went vegan the population of earth would drop about 50 IQ points. I think I did just by reading this.

Have you ever looked into a cow's eyes? There is nothing there. Eat those bastards!

Veganism is a terrible idea: 1. We need animal protein, creatine, carnosine, and DHAs. 2. There are no studies, whatsoever, that prove being vegan is a better choice. Ever. 3. The Atkins diet, a low carb high fat meat eating diet, crushed veganism in a study on multiple human subjects. Atkins participants were healthier and better off. Any vegan-friendly study shows correlation, but never causation. 4. Vegans use scare tactics to get more people and lie to get their way becuase they have no valid evidence. 5. The only reason to be veagn is moralty issues, when there should be non. Animals are not people and dpn't deserve our same rights. Anima cruelty is unacceptable, but no United States governed slaughter house does nay of the thing PETA says they do. There is no point in slaughtering male chicks, there's no meat! They are used in other ways; that would not be cost effective and GMO grown heavy foul are better utilsed. 6.The China Study was total bullshit. 7. A new study came out just after it and contradicted everything it said. 8. Vegan diets CAN work short term, but only in short term ill people. 9.There are no health reasons to avoid animal foods. 10. Overpopulation without their slaughter. I am skeptic to this, however and don't belive humans are even overpoplated. 11. Veganism would ruin our economy, and if veganism had any real ground, we'd figure it out. But it doesn't. 12. Humans are meant to eat meat.

I care so little for most humans, why would I even think about an animal...
-
Reads whole thing. Feels nothing. Eats cheeseburger. Sory. Meat is too good to give up.
-
The biggest reason to go vegan that the OP forgot. The main reason to go vegan is because you are a little bitch. Yep. *drops mic and walks away*

Lolnited nations

Pendulate seems to be the only rational person in this thread.
-
Hmmm you make a valid point *continues eating Cheeseburger with bacon, chicken, along with some fish sticks. Drinks glass of milk. Eats some veil(aka baby cow). *

Tell that to starving people around the globe.
