In response to questions by fellow youtube vloggers, my experience eliminating non-food animal products from my life.
“[T]he word ‘veganism’ denotes a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude — as far as is possible and practical — all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose…” – Donald Watson, 1944

Veganism is the personal practice of eliminating the use of non-human animal products. Ethical vegans reject the commodity status of animals and the use of animal products for any purpose, while dietary vegans or strict vegetarians eliminate them from their diet only. The term ‘vegan’ was coined in England in 1944 by Donald Watson, co-founder of the British Vegan Society, to describe a vegetarian who doesn’t consume dairy or eggs on ethical grounds. It extended its definition in 1951 to mean ‘the doctrine that man should live without exploiting animals,’ and in 1960 H. Jay Dinshah started the American Vegan Society, linking the movement to the Jainist concept of ahimsa, the avoidance of violence against living things.

CORRECTION:
Meat is a perfect protein, however it is not the ONLY perfect protein. Beans and rice are also a perfect protein but with less calories and fat.
CORRECTION:
Amino acids form protein, not the other way around.
Please excuse these errors, I was speaking too fast and ended up saying a few things backwards or just messed up.
Responding to TheAmazingAthiest aka TJ’s VEGETARIANS SUCK! video. Here’s the link to the extremely flawed logic I am correcting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUQG9PhDNnk&feature=channel_video_title The TRUTH about vegetarianism and veganism is FAR from the highly errored ,irrational and absurdly UNSCIENTIFIC philosophies TJ believes in concerning vegetarianism.
Primary cause of global warming: Meat production.
No matter HOW LARGE the chicken, pig and cow populations are they are indeed NOT doing as good as majestic wolves, bears and gorrilas. Why? Because majestic animals are EVOLVING. Domestic animals are NOT. Why? Because what is nessisary for evolution to occur? Well first they must be in the scenario they need to evolve for and the weak and frail must die off while the strong are the primary survivors. Domestic species’ instincts are also being degraded, they are being desensitized and thus animals we breed for meat would NEVER be able to survive in the wild just as our domestic pets would never be able to. Simply put majestic animals are doing MUCH better, even if their population numbers are technically much lower than animals we breed for meat. Pro-meat people trying to trash talk vegetarianism + veganism can try to use these numbers as a redherring/distraction, but once you understand the truth behind their non-sense you realize how irrational it is.
Plus animals bred for meat are bred to become FATTER, less healthy beings! Thus these bad genes are continually based on and they are LITTERALLY DEVOLVING!
The number one goal of life is actually to SURVIVE not reproduce. Why? Because you have to be able to SURVIVE up until the point that you are able to reproduce, if survival were not a species main goal, they would go extinct because each individual of that species would not be able to survive up until they were able to reproduce! It’s SURVIVAL of the fittest NOT reproduction of the fittest. Species evolve to be able to SURVIVE more effectively.
Vegetarianism is also MUCH healthier, than a diet containing meat, in EVERYWAY! Saying that you cannot get proper protein levels with a vegetarian or vegan diet is completely and totally UNTRUE! Dairy has masses of protein and beans and other such vegetables contain large amounts of protein and are low caloried with TINY amounts of fat if ANY! Most of the calories in meat are from FAT! Not to mention the hormones we inject into the animals we breed for meat that we then consume in the meat!
Meat eaters have such horrific cholestorl levels that the average adult male meat eater has a 50% chance of having a heart attack and DYING from that heart attack!!! Becoming a vegetarian reduces this risk by 36% and veganism reduces it even further!
Vegetarians and vegans are definitiely not sisses. Jack Lalane, the first ever body builder and creator of the first gym was a vegan! Mike Tyson ate meat while boxing, but after his career he became quite fat, once he became a vegan he lost all the weight and got into the best shape of his life post career, surely he is not as muscular as he used to be, but that’s because he’s no longer training to fight. MMA fighter Jake Shields is a vegan, many MMA fighters are! Athlete David Scott has won the Ironman triathalon 6 times!!! David Scott is a vegan athlete!
The issue is not about eating a form of life versus eating different forms of life. It is about eating unconcious life versus eating concious life. Plants are not concious, diary products are not conconcious, fruit is not concious, however animals ARE CONCIOUS BEINGS. They think, reason and suffer just like us! There is not a SINGLE thing we do that animals do not also do even if only on a lesser level! Vegetarianism and veganism is the choice to eat only unconcious life rather than concious life. If a person is in an accident and becomes brain dead we pull the plug on them. why? They are techcnically still physically alive, but they are no longer concious creatures. It is our conciousness that defines us.
I totally forgot to mention soy and protein shakes for vegetarians and soy based protien bars and shakes for vegan bodybuilders/weight lifters!
Many of us Vegans are angry and unhealthy despite our Vegan dietary choices. By eating too many processed foods, stimulants & soy, coupled with being judgemental and sedentary you are assured of being an unhappy and out of balance Vegan. Instead let’s refocus our passion for saving the Planet, the animals and our health and encourage, motivate and inspire others to make positive changes to their diets and lifestyles.
