Just to add my five pennies to the basket, I am not a vegetarian, but wish
that I was. It is nothing to do with food or what I am supposed to eat, but
just the thought of all the animal suffering that goes with eating meat that
makes me wish I could be vegetarian. I know animals in the wild suffer when
they are killed, but it is nothing like the continuous suffering which the
human inflicts on them, so I have nothing but admiration for those who
choose *not* to eat meat. Also, I know vegetarians and vegans and I can
tell you, they are usually (outwardly at least) healthier than meat eaters I
know. Just an observation and it is not intended to spark a row and I
understand that all must choose their own paths. Dee

Excuse the remark, but the word omnivore does not imply that it is better to
eat meat.
If we look at the greatest souls on earth, those who advocated peace and
worked for their fellows,
we will see that most of them were .. vegetarians.
There is also the concept of many who know better than us that
you are what you eat. (Just have a look at the Sumo-wrestlers in
Japan...)
.
And: the fear of death in animals destined to be fried (the fish on the hook
the cow in the death-row, the hen sniffing the blood of her sisters)
shortly after causes acids in their bloodstream which we'd better NOT digest
