Hi I'm an AtheistVegan. I've been vegan almost 5 years and atheist about 2 years. I can't go back to eating meat or Christianity after what I've learned. What caused me to go vegetarian the most was John Robbin's "Diet for a new America" video and what made me go atheist the most was "Zeitgeist the movie". What was the biggest influence in making you to go vegan, atheist, or whatever?

Hello, AtheistVegan. Welcome to the forum! I have been a vegan for 17 months now and an atheist for over 22 years. I'm vegan primarily for ethical reasons. My greatest motivations to go vegan were Gary Yourofsky's "Why Vegan?" speech (on TheVeganAtheist's YouTube channel) and also TheVeganAtheist's SMEC video series. I'm also interested in nutrition, and I've seen a lot of Dr. Michael Greger's videos (nutritionfacts.org). Anyways I hope to see your insights on discussions in the future.

Welcome AtheistVegan, I hope you like it here (and don't get confused too much with TheVeganAtheist).

Sounds like you watch a lot of documentaries!

Welcome to the forum!
Do you find the forum to be quiet and inactive?
- Do your part by engaging in new and old topics
- Don't wait for others to start NEW topics, post one yourself
- Invite family, friends or critics

Thank you ArmouredAbolitionist. Yeah I do love watching documentaries. I've seen Gary Yourofsky's "Best speech you will ever hear" and I am subscribed to Nutritionfacts.org on youtube
