Hi, new to Veganism?

Post by Marluxia »

Hello Philosophical Vegan forum, great to be here.
I've been introduced to veganism by a friend and am curious to go more. I've just went vegetarian about two weeks ago and haven't had many issues thus far.

Hello Graceful Assassin ( ;) ), welcome to the forum!
How did your friend introduce you? Any documentaries? Maybe compelling arguments?

Ha, like the reference.
Anyway, my friend who is basically just a vegetarian was just shooting a breeze with me, then we got into the subject, and we particularly went over the ethical issues. I never really thought about veganism or even vegetarianism, but since I don't really have much going on in my life right now and am fairly bored I figured why not do something.

Well if you play your cards right, you'll soon not be doing this out of boredom and realize it's out of moral necessity (oh yeah also better for your health).

Feel free to start any threads with any questions.

Welcome! Going vegan was the best decision I ever made. I'm sure you will find the same.

Are there many vegans where you live?
How to become vegan in 4.5 hours:
1.Watch Forks over Knives (Health)
2.Watch Cowspiracy (Environment)
3. Watch Earthlings (Ethics)
Congratulations, unless you are a complete idiot you are now a vegan.
