I've been a vegetarian for 9 years, and a vegan for 5. Short version: my idea of morality entails living one's life to the fullest while causing the least amount of pain possible to everyone else. Animals feel pain, therefore I'd like to avoid giving it to them unless I have to. It so happens that we, as a society, don't have to. In fact, in a lot of ways, it's better if we don't. While I know that I'm not saving any cows by not eating hamburgers (someone in this thread has already offered to eat my share of hamburgers for me, generous soul), I hope that by my lifestyle I can act as an example that one can live a full and healthy life without the animal products that we take for granted, and sometimes delude ourselves into regarding as necessities.

This is the funniest one I've heard. Second best was my baby sister asking me "if you like animals so much, why are you always eating their food?"

The caption here needs to read: "Which would you rather be?"

How about a caption:

What looks tastier, dried up green/brown stuff, or nice red stuff? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
