I'm a vegetarian myself, so I think that's pretty cool.

I was for about 9 years, half of which was vegan (and a militant one at that) I've tried to go back several times but failed,

Says you. Life appears to be designed. Evolution is also obvious but has limitations. "muck to man" didn't happen by accident. Should we have a micro vs macro debate?

Interestingly, according to the Bible man was created vegetarian. It was only after the "flood" that man was permitted to eat flesh.

Ditto.

What a load of rubbish coming from some people on this forum about vegans and where we get our vitamins from. I am vegan and have a very balanced diet with all the nutrients and vitamins I need to live a healthy live. I never get sick and feel fantastic....even more so because I know that I am not contributing to the animal holocaust. I applaud Brian May for going vegan and it's about time humanity evolved and stopped leeching off animals. If you want to drink milk, drink your own. Stop stealing someone else's.

We don't have canine teeth Dane. Do your homework. Enlighten yourself. You are corrent Juan 1921. God created man a vegan. It was indeed ONLY after the great flood that the eating of the flesh was permitted and only because vegetation was not readily available. Even so, strict rules for slaughter were given: not the tragedy of todays intensive farming situations.

"God created man a vegan. It was indeed ONLY after the great flood that the eating of the flesh was permitted and only because vegetation was not readily available"

Except for the fact that none of that shit actually happened.

If vegetation was not readily available, what were the animals eating? Were all animals carnivores?

Did they all start yumming on each other when Noah kicked them off the Ark? If so, he probably should have taken more than 2 of each.

What an idiot!

Wow! Ironic.

Yes, save the animals but kill the poor plants who can't even run. Not fair.
If "god" created men as vegans, I'm seriously defective.

I refuse to get started on veganism, but wonder if all of his leather guitar straps will go up for auction to raise money for Save Me, or will he consider these to be OK because they came before he was converted.

He's only doing it for the psychic powers.

Sarcasm aside, that's a very poor argument, my friend - and a very dangerous slope to be treading.

That's like saying Mandela was a waste of time because he didn't cure AIDS too.

People do what's important to them. Don't rain on their parade because they're not doing everything. At least some people are doing something. Even if there are ten defeats for every one victory, it still is a victory, and it makes a difference.

You are ill informed. Canine teeth in humans??? we have the remains of them but look at them in relation to a carnivore...you can catch an animal with these and tear it up can you? No ! Look even at the omnivore dog..and see how much bigger the canines are compared with human teeth, We have evolved ours out. Dairy is totally unnatural milk is for infants whether produced by mice, elephants cows or humans. To use milk of another species as adult involves great cruelty and is totally unnatural.
The only supplement a vegan needs is B12 . this is because it is produced in the bacteria present on the dirty vegetation, the vegetarian animals we eat consume. Our vegetable are too clean so have no B12. Vegetarian apes in zoos also need B12 supplements as the food they are given is "too clean"
Some humans need a little meat if they cannot digest other forms of protein, but farming meat is very cruel and to be avoided by any compassionate human being. i do not understand why people get so uptight when others want to stop the suffering caused by producing meat and dairy in vast quantities.

^^ That's some utter drivel right there. Go eat some dirty vegetables and see your B12 sky rocket. In truth, there would be no absorption of the B12. And there is no B12 in plants. And yes, humans do need their B12, unlike true herbivores, they don't produce it. Regardless, animal foods have been paramount to the human race'sevolution. It doesn't matter what we were when it all started, right now we are omnivores. I do have a problem with the footprint the animal industry leaves behind. But the solution is most definitely not veganism, which is totally out of whack with the human body's anatomy, but better practices. And a steady turn to less invasive foods that feed the masses.

I have no problem with people going vegan for animal rights. I contest anyone who's doing it for health reasons. There is no proof that no meat is better than *some* meat as far as I'm aware of and man, it would take some serious proving that.
