The is NOT the website for the Vegan Society.
This website is totally independent of the Vegan Society although it supports its aims and ideals.
If you want to see the website of the vegan society http://www.vegansociety.com then please click here.

This is the beginning of this website ... January 2003. Like all babies it is not very pretty to start with, can't speak very well yet and is a little bit clumsy but hopefully like all children it will grow and become graceful, beautiful, potent and do good things.

vegan things, vegan stuff, vegan thoughts, vegan philosophy, vegan cooking, vegan recipes, vegan recruitment, vegan events, vegan people, vegan mums and dads, vegan kids, all things vegan should be here ... one day soon we hope.

A link to something interesting... "...vegetarian plaintiffs alleged the burger chain concealed the presence of beef product in what McDonald's had represented as being meat-free French fries..."

Pleas

Please do not eat meat or subjugate the creatures in any way. It is unnecessary. It hurts them, it is painful for us, it wastes the land. In the past some might have felt that their survival depended on that lifestyle but today this is true for very few people if any. The creatures should be allowed to pursue their own destiny, how can they progress if their lives are continually cut short?

Please stop using creatures in the name of research. The medical world has known for years that we can prevent far more illness (eg cancers) though correct living and healthy diet than has ever been found though vivisection and other experiments on animals.
People used to be told that it was OK to hurt animals because they did not have feelings and were not like us. This has been disproved. Anyone who has had a pet dog knows they have feelings, anyone who has seen any mammal mother and her offspring has witnessed the tender love and care that resonates in our own hearts.

Please be honest with yourself and the children. If you like to eat meat then it is probably because the texture is good and it tastes nice and it is easy. Before giving up sugar in tea it was impossible to imagine tea without it, now it is impossible to enjoy tea with sugar. There are more reasons to give up meat than to give up sugar in tea.

Please try to imagine how a person that cannot hurt a creature can be asked to kill another human ... not hurting others is bad for the arms industry.

Please try to understand how living people can be more compassionate than the great prophets and teachers like Jesus or Buddha? ....(Ed. hmmm I don't think so, I think this website will have a lot to say about how it is very unlikely that good people can be hurtful to the creatures or indeed to any of God's creation esp if they are really, truly 'Son of God'.

Please don't waste stuff ... there's enough for all but we should not waste or be greedy or someone might go without.

No

No Harm, no hurt, no pain, no disease, no hell, no suffering, no crying, no screaming, no fear.

Love

Love is all you need ... and will, and wanting, and truth, and honesty, and understanding, and compassion, and joy, and humour... and love.
