Veganism is the Only Rational, Logical Response

Last August, I shared some quotes and pictures that really hit home for me. I'd like to share some more now. 

"Veganism is the only rational, logical response to accepting that it is morally wrong to inflict unnecessary suffering and death on animals." I couldn't find the name of the person who originally said this, nor can I remember where I found it. 

from Mercy for Animals' Facebook Page

 
"For the sake of some little mouthful of flesh, we deprive a soul of the sun and light, and from that portion of life and time it had been born into the world to enjoy." Plutarch
from Spirit of Nature's Facebook page


"...if one person is unkind to an animal, it is considered to be cruelty, but if a lot of people are unkind to animals, especially in the name of commerce, the cruelty is condoned and, once large sums of money are at stake, will be defended to the last by otherwise intelligent people." Ruth Harrison, Animal Machines
Definitely watch this video. It's amazing!

  1. that video is totally amazing!!! If the world wants to survive we will need to stop eating animals!!! Why can't everyone just stop thinking and acting like they know everything and use their brains, accept the fact that they were wrong, and stop impacting helpless creatures with their "I'm so superior" frame of mind?!

    1. I think a lot of people still don't see/realize that it is a social justice issue. It's definitely something that needs to be talked about, though.
