Veganism

As much as the world has been in a relapsed denial, we are entering a time where the matter of opinion is held high above all of our heads and the thin string that is keeping it there is being stretched by the amount of people that feel obligated to reprimand on behalf of their opinions. On one end, this seems like an overly complex way for someone to negotiate the bitter truth that everyone is going to battle their rights to agree or disagree with a bigger picture.

If you were to tell someone that you are going vegan ten years ago they would think you were crazy. People were not educated on what being vegan is like. According to The Vegan Society “Veganism is a way of living which seeks to exclude, as far as is possible and practicable, all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose.” Just in the past five years being vegan has become more popular. Social media plays a big part on spreading the awareness…

If vegans try so hard to emulate the tastes of meats and animal products, the healthy way is to just consume the real thing. The popularity of becoming a vegan has risen in the past decade because of organizations falsely “exposing” the meat and the meat-packing industries. Those industries and the government have heavily regulated systems and laws in favor of treating the animals justly, and many studies have been done by the companies to make sure that they are doing so. For example, many…

Lifestyle Superiority The debacle between omnivorous and vegetarian diets has been in effect for several years trying to determine which diet is superior to the other, and there are many factors that contribute to each. The omnivorous diet consists of consuming both meat and plant-based foods for a “well-balanced” diet. This diet allows for the consumer to gain necessary proteins and vitamins to help the body function and grow. It also helps in the process of muscle growth and health. A…

In Norcross's essay ‘Puppies, pigs, and people: eating meat and marginal cases’ he claims that we should not eat farm factory meat since it is not worth our own gustatory pleasure. In this essay I will argue that Norcross's is correct in stating that we are morally obligated to give up eating farm factory meat, and the idea of the causal impotence objection does not succeed. Norcross introduces his idea with the story of Fred. Fred is a man who has been put on trial for animal abuse of…
