Who I've Been Is Not As Important

Being Vegan Is Not Just A Matter Of Being 'kind' To Animals. First And Foremost, It Is A Matter Of Being Just And Observing Our Moral Obligation To Not Treat Other Sentient Beings As Things.

There Is No Moral Distinction Between Fur And Other Materials Made From Animals, Such As Leather, Which Also Is The Result Of The Suffering And Death Of Sentient Beings.

But If There Were Two Dogs Left In The Universe And It Were Up To Us As To Whether They Were Allowed To Breed So That We Could Continue To Live With Dogs, And Even If We Could Guarantee That All Dogs Would Have Homes As Loving As The One That We Provide, We Would Not Hesitate For A Second To Bring The Whole Institution Of 'pet' Ownership To An End.

Veganism Is About Nonviolence: Nonviolence To Other Sentient Beings; Nonviolence To Yourself; Nonviolence To The Earth.

We Do Not Think Clearly About Our Moral Obligations To Animals.
