No Turning Back

Even if I wanted to I doubt that I could ever go back to eating meat. Perhaps under the right conditions a small amount of dairy is possible. Still doubtful though - it's a harmful substance to the body. Of cours the right conditions is in knowing that to bring the dairy product to my plate there would have to be a complete lack of suffring on the part of the animal. And that's the major reason I could never go back to animal products - it's all but impossible to know this for certain. I know of (now former) vegans who have added fish back into their diet - but fish are capable of suffering that same as we are - some scientist say perhaps even more as they lack the ability to rationalize the end of suffering - for them the moment of pain is all consuming and all they know. I won't participate in this. Ever again. The botoom line is that there is nothing animal products offer that the body truely needs (wants, maybe yes) I know many will make the argument that this isn't so. But the facts far out weight the arguments for keeping animals products in the diet. Be informed. Make your own choice after the information has been gathered. And if these products are still part of your lifestyle - choose as kindly and wisely as possibe. After you have made this choice - you will have to choose to forget all that has been learned on the cruelty of your diet.
Good luck with that.
