Do I offend you with my comments on veganism? That’s nothing compared to the offense you impose upon the innocent souls who have to endure your need to satisfy your flesh at the expense of their suffering and death.
To understand the compassionate movement of animal rights, empathy must be used to examine the issue from the animals’ point of view. This isn’t a radical concept either. Abolitionists looked at slavery through the eyes of subjugated blacks, just as the Allied Forces looked at Nazism through the eyes of Jews and other non-Aryans whom Hitler labeled unworthy and expendable. Empathy allows people to understand the injustice without over-analyzing the issue, especially when those in power deem the victims unworthy and expendable, something Hitler, slave-owners and meat-eaters have all done to their respective victims. ~Gary Yourofsky~

Humane is a word that humans use to justify torture and/or death, usually by comparison to another type of torture/death. Some people use the word as an excuse to make themselves appear to care, while others use it to convince themselves that they care.

“I have from an early age abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals as they now look upon the murder of men.”
Mike Tyson on His Vegan Diet: “I wish I was born this way.” (by blackman666ful)
Your health is not about you. It’s about your children, your grandchildren and those who love you. You can go vegan for them or you can be selfish and self-centered by having another slice of meat on your white bread.
