Saturated Fat Controversy

[FlatAssembler]

Another thing about veganism being a religion... Vegans often argue that carnism is a religion. For one thing, belief that eating meat is ethical and healthy makes people reject science on quite a few issues. Many anti-vegetarians reject the scientific consensus that animals we eat are sentient and conscious. And many anti-vegetarians reject the scientific consensus that saturated fat intake leads to heart disease. In fact, it makes some people, most notably Nina Teicholz, openly reject the entire nutritional science. Eating meat is a fertile ground for such beliefs, much like Christianity or Islam are for creationism.
