Guest guest Posted June 3, 2001 Report Share Posted June 3, 2001 Have a read of this people (you can to VeganSpam, a weekly newsletter at www.veganoutreach.org), one of my fave vegan sites anywere: -----------------------cut here----------------------------- In my opinion, the " Why Vegan " pamphlets are by far the most effective piece of animal rights literature available. I have, on various occasions, seen them perform what I would have previously thought to be a miracle: convincing someone to become a vegetarian in just a few minutes, often among people who seem to be the least likely to change. There is one case in particular that I would like to mention. One of my coworkers once told me that he values his right to eat meat so highly that he would be willing to go to war and die to defend it. Nevertheless, he took a " Why Vegan " pamphlet and showed it to his family. As a result, his wife and daughter have decided to become vegetarians. I have long believed that the human race would one day come to the realization that it is immoral to kill animals for food, just as it earlier came to the realization regarding the immorality of slavery, segregation, and gladiatorial combat. Prior to coming across the literature from Vegan Outreach, I feared that this date was probably hundreds or thousands of years away. However, having seen the effectiveness of the " Why Vegan " booklets at changing people's deeply ingrained habits and daily behavior, I now believe that this date may realistically come within our own lifetimes.
