Guest guest Posted January 9, 2003 Report Share Posted January 9, 2003 Thank you, Susan: My definition is " practically vegan. " I coined the term and I believe that I should define it. I am " practically vegan " for practical reasons: I don't want to take artificial pills to get my B12. I agree with you. There are different reasons for being vegan. Mine are my own. I am keeping my definitions straight. Are you keeping yours straight? In my request for criticism I was not asking for criticism of my morality, ethics and religion. I was asking for suggestions and criticism of the health and wellness aspects of eating 3 ozs of chicken a month. Some people have reacted as if it is a sin to eat 3 ozs of chicken. Actually, I'm not Christian, so I don't even care about that. I'm concerned with health and wellness. All the response to my request for criticism has been about sin, right and wrong, correct definitions, morality, etc. What a misunderstanding! --- Susan Cogan <susan-brassfield wrote: > >Ron: Apparently there are different reasons for > being vegan > >and different definitions of what vegan is.
