Do you agree with Richard Dawkins?

Its not even as if its healthy in the long-term. I tried being a vegitarian for two months and ended up looking even more pale and gaunt than usual and thats a feat in itself. I also felt constantly exhausted, the vitamin pills didn't help that much.

If anecdotes from ignorant and incompetent people were good enough arguments to convince me, I'm pretty sure I'd belong to dozens of religions right now and be chugging down homeopathic "medicine." Good thing they're not.

Seriously, claiming that vegetarianism isn't healthy is blatantly factually incorrect. Any diet can be bad if you eat like a moron. Try not to do that and you'll be okay.

I mean I kind of think vegitarianism is the most morale way to go about things but I don't think its been perfected enough to give it a decent chance.

What do you mean about vegetarianism not being perfected? That statement seriously makes no sense in any way. What would perfected vegetarianism look like?

Seriously, guys, at least try to learn a little bit about the basics of human nutrition. I get that they don't teach it in school. That sucks, but there's not much we can do about it.

"It is the position of the American Dietetic Association that appropriately planned vegetarian diets, including total vegetarian or vegan diets, are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases."

I make no claims about disease prevention, but you're not missing anything required by the human body by being veg*an. Just don't eat only chips and Oreos, then say "veganism doesn't work."

You ever tried quorn or tofu? Yuck.

Do *not* get veganism.

Good news! You don't have to eat quorn or tofu! I know, it seems crazy, but that's totally how it works.

I don't know a single person who's tried well prepared tofu and didn't like it, though. Tofu by itself barely has any taste, but it picks up flavors really well. It can also have a huge variety of textures depending on how it's make and prepared. Try the tofu at a good Chinese place before writing it off completely. The vast majority of people who eat tofu aren't veg*an.
