Me, a vegan.......lol, no. I didn't realize that you were asking.
What do I believe about eating meat....and specifically in reference or comparison to veganism?
I don't think that there is any measure of more right or more wrong in either omnivory or veganism. As I've -explicitly- stated, my misgivings surround production methods, products - I have no misgivings regarding using animals as food. None. I have no objections to others choosing a vegan diet, none.
I think that while the necessity of omnivory is made plainly apparent in the case of those of us who are starving..there is no necessity whatsoever for veganism.
I'm certain that both omnivory and veganism can be healthy, and unhealthy. I could eat nothing but refined beet sugar and that'd be pretty damned vegan, but not very healthy. You need to check off alot of boxes before you've reached the status of "healthy"...and if the diet you have checks off those boxes, while including meat........I'd be surprised to find a significant difference in health from one that checks all the same boxes...substituting soy (for example).
