Vegetarians on Priuschat?

I applaud all of you who forego meat or at least comsume very little of it. I am still in that lost state where I know how terrible it is but yet I still eat it

I know there are some message boards that you can go to for support, advice, information about making a switch. These are a few I know of, but I haven't really spent much time at any...

http://www.veggieboards.com (I think this is the biggest one)

I understand what you mean about the "lost state." When your actions meet your values you can walk around with a lighter conscience. I think when compassionate people really get how much animals suffer in the vast majority of the farming industry, it's hard to continue living/consuming as before.

 

Hay, I just found this post!! yeah, one here, and the wife as well. 10 and 12 years respectively. Not vegan, but strict vegitarian.......... actually its a rather easy diet up here in Boone as the local university is known as a "granola" school (Appalachian State University)... our area has a reputation for being health and environmentally conscious.

Good to know there are more of us out here........... (we taking over, but keep it quiet.........)

 

I eat enough meat to make up for all of you!!!

thanks eric.............. i can't spell anyway :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

I was vegetarian and even vegan for years, but I found that the more serious I became about it, the more judgemental people became of me and others. It got to be that I had to look for non-leather shoes and belts, and even pay attention to the shampoo I used. There's really no limit to how far people will go to say you are doing something unethical. I had to stop hanging out with the other veggie people because I just don't like that kind of thinking. And the meat-eaters too, love to look for ways they can call you a hypocrite. I think whatever anybody is doing to help is great, and nobody should judge anybody else for what they are or are not doing. These days I do eat a little meat, maybe once or twice a week.

I'm a vegetarian. Weathersea. Could you please explain to me how you drive your Prius, I mean when you get in, what do you do or touch. Would appreciate it as I expect to test drive a Prius soon. Also is there something to watch out for? I've been a vegetarian all my life, by the way. So nice to meet a fellow vegetarian.

No problem, RangerDavid.

But after reading your post again, I'm guessing you meant environmentally conscious, as in aware, rather than conscience, which means

conscience |ˈkän ch əns| noun an inner feeling or voice viewed as acting as a guide to the rightness or wrongness of one's behavior : he had a guilty conscience about his desires | Ben was suffering a pang of conscience.

Those s and c letters together are a killer
Anyway, conscience flavored couscous sounds awful, and a conscious couscous, downright klingon.

 

Actually Withersea never said whether or not he was vegitarian as well, he just asked how many were on PC. So, Withersea, are you ???
