Read Christine's response
(the last one)

Christine isn't a vegetarian or a vegan. "She" is a troll.
But considering the questioner was suggesting resorting to cannibalism and eating vegetarians....|||no
|||No because you are saying that vegetarians live forever. While we do typical live longer but not forever. Tell them about the health problems of being an omnivore and some of the famous people who are vegetarians or vegans|||No, and neither is preaching.|||My friend is vegetarian, and she would never win people over if she made a huge deal about it. Instead, she orders whatever she wants, and lets everyone try it- we've all started eating vegetarian food here and there as a result. It's not total conversion, but it's about the best you can hope for.|||You have been taken in by one of the vegetarian section trolls. Every now and then, a person(usually a meat eater) comes along and creates an account in order to make vegetarians and vegans look bad. Christine is not a vegetarian, but rather a troll that is trying to make all vegetarians and vegans look bad. She is not the first(I can personally remember at least 4), and she will certainly not be the last.|||No, because EVERYONE is going to die at some point. And so are animals, for that matter... might as well not have the animal's life be in vein and have some tasty food while we're at it :).|||No.
People all have different beliefs.
If someone thinks eating meat is important, no one should tell them they're wrong.
If someone thinks eating meat is wrong, no one should tell them they're wrong, either.

Although, it is pretty stupid to say that you will die if you don't eat meat, because the world is full of healthy, thriving vegs.|||No. Generally, you can't win someone over to vegetarianism or veganism unless they're interested and approach you with questions. Berating someone's life choices is not a good way to get them to accept yours. |||nope, or else people wouldn't smoke cigs, drink alcohol, or eat fast food either.|||Christine just makes her kind look stupid... I really wonder if her goal is to make vegans look bad. If it is it's working|||Christine is an annoying probably fake person anyway. So just ignore her. I didn't read her comment but I have read most of them and can imagine what she says. I don't know if she is really vegan and answering neurotically or not vegan and purposely going out of her way to sound like an idiot so that people generalize that vegans/vegetarians are like her.

However, meat is more harmful than a vegetarian/vegan diet and poses more health risks. Such as heart disease and strokes.
So when people ask questions about vegetarianism/vegan-ism and why we choose to be one we bring them up because it is a fact after all. Whether someone chooses to be a vegetarian/vegan or not it's still a fact and they asked the question to get us to say that. So we're not trying to win people over we are just defending ourselves by stating that we eat healthy for whatever reason (animals, health, environment) and it is our choice and those are our reasons.|||here's the thing
i'm a raw vegan(well, trying to be one full time, but finding it hard yet rewarding when i do do it) and i love animals which is why i started. but i've stuck with it because it's healthier and i feel better. but i don't think preaching is a good way to get people to convert. if you're having dinner and people start asking questions, then by all means answer them as best as you can, but don't tell people stuff they aren't interested in hearing. it'll just piss them off and possibly lose you a friend.

ex.
me and my friend had dinner the other week. i took her to this vegan restaurant cause she told me to pick the place since the last time she picked. so we were eating and she was enjoying the food and then she asked me why i was a vegan besides the delicious food. i told her all the reasons. i told her that i wanted to live a really long time and that i wanted to feel better and all these amazing things.

had she not asked me, i wouldn't have told her anything. if they don't care, it's not my job to tell them stuff.
