First of all, I am NOT trying to start a debate here. I'm happy to hear informative and intelligent replies/debate.
I'm a vegetarian. I was once vegan briefly, but I now eat eggs and cheese and all that.
I hate PETA. Hate hate hate. I hate militant vegans and vegetarians. I have never started lecturing meat eaters during their dinner (or ever for that matter.) I do not mind if people eat meat around me.
And most importantly, I do not care what people's diets choices are. If you want to eat meat that is your decision and you can do whatever you like. I'm not going to hassle you about it, I'm not going to point it out, I'm not going to tell you to convert. People are able to educate themselves on the differences between vegetarian and omnivore diets and can choose which side they think is best.
So I guess my question is, why all the hate? Why assume that every vegetarian or vegan is a militant PETA lover? Most vegetarians are like me and do not care what your beliefs are. If we're leaving you alone, why harass us and group us together as terrorists and intense left wing militant protesters? Why say all vegetarians are evil when surely what you mean is all radical zealous PETA loving vegans are evil?
The very reason I despise PETA is because it makes people like ME and many other relaxed vegetarians look like crazy zealous idiots.
Animal and pet lovers, support your local humane society -- not peta. See http://www.petakillsanimals.com/ Your donation to peta is not being used for what you think it is "every dollar that you send is put to work instantly to sponsor crucial legal cases, public education, and veterinary care -- to save animals from senseless cruelty and pain"(quoted directly from an unsolicited beg letter from peta) It is really being used to finance court cases for suspected and convicted terrorists, distributing disgusting literature that is aimed at children and teenagers, and euthanasia of pets that could be adopted or used for research.
REALLY agree with you on that one! we vegeterians are still HUMAN , we have feelings as well and although we appreciate the fact that you are trying to warn people bout 'vegeterianism' mind you are doing a great job..NOT wow please be mindful of what is said here!!!
like that person said I hate PETA. Hate hate hate. I hate militant vegans and vegetarians. I have never started lecturing meat eaters during their dinner (or ever for that matter.) I do not mind if people eat meat around me.
what people eat is THEIR choice..i guess people like hitler and manson for example were just PLAIN STOOOOPID to think about only themselves!
I'm not a weirdo or a health-nut. And I don't dislike people, eat salad three times a day or lack a sense of humour. And I don't know any chickens, pigs or turkeys, although I am certain they would thank me if they could. I have a deep respect for life -- all life. I speak from the heart, not from industry conditioning. I believe in coexistence, not domination; greenhouses, not slaughterhouses. Tofu can tastes like anything you want it to and yes, I do get enough protein! Look mom, I'm eating all my vegetables, I saving lives and I'm helping the environment. My claim is compassion so I AM VEGAN.
P.S. You don't have to believe everything you think (or read on this website).

Interesting website although I gather your name Vegs.are evil is used more to draw attention than a real belief. I have been a vegan (my younger self) vegetarian and even raw fooder (short duration) Now I'm an omnivore who prefers a lot of veggie foods but eats seafood, fowl and a little beef now and then. It's actually quite silly to equate a diet with good or evil. I'm also involved with sports and athletics and their diets are all over the spectrum. However whole natural foods( veg. or animal) can help improve athletic performance in my experience. As a wise person told me a long time ago you don't need money, a degree or a DIET to be kind to others. David A.
Well I found this site through a Mother Earth News forum in response to an article about rabbit raising. The forum was full of horrified vegetarians insisting that it was impossible for a publication to claim to be earth friendly and advocate eating animals. Obviously this site cherry picked a lot of information but the hysterical rants of a tiny minority of vegetarians can lead to an equal and opposite reaction no?
I am vegetarian now and very healthy. I love my food and I think I probably eat more than I should.
When I was little my parents use to force me to eat meat and fish. I never liked the taste so I barely ate any meals with them in it. My parents got angry during teatime a lot and I was threatened to eat meat but I soon learnt that I could swallow and bring it up afterward without them knowing. I only told them recently what I use to do. I guess they thought they were doing the right thing.
Uh, Guest... Support your local humane society? Instead of PETA? Both those places kill animals. Most humane societies have kill rates just as high. Try support your local no kill shelter.
PS I am a vegan, too and this site makes me giggle.
It is highly probable that this site was started by some bloke from some meat industry who has been having sleepless nights thinking about the growing vegetarian awareness world wide.......... Their livelihoods being at stake,small wonder they need to bash vegetarians and vegans with a screaming title like "Vegetarians Are Evil".Even my half-witted pet chihuahua could sniff and sense the infantility of this site.......
i would say it was started by someone with a great sense of humour just to see what sort of people would write in it and it seems not many have.... lighten up.
Wow, did you see the 'complaint' button. freaking genius. But seriously - I have two extremely healy vegetarian children who are both head and shoulders taller than their pears. I breastfed both till they were three (I guess thats a whole other hating website you could create)- and they are extremely healthy. And intelligent, well they are both a heck of alot smarter than their parents!
I found this site because I know in my gut that eating processed soy foods can't be good for anyone. We eat a whole foods vegetarian diet without the use of any crap white flour or sugar... but still eat soy!
Processed soy is very unhealthy: that would be soy milk, tofu, and soy protein isolate. But there are very healthy soy products, 'cause unprocessed: edamame (soybeans raised specifically for eating right out of the pod) and tempeh (fermented soy beans).
But you can be 100% vegan w/o ever consuming a single soybean or soy product.
There is no way that meat eating, along with overpopulation a.k.a. "unlicensed hetero breeding" will be allowed to continue, as they are direct threats to the world's survival.
So enjoy your last gasp of carnivore lust, meat eaters/baby breeders...you're going DOWN!
I'm vegetarian, and yeah, this site makes me laugh, is brilliant how biased things can be isnt it?
However yeah, you get lunatics from all walks of life, get vegetarians who speak rubbish, get carnivores who speak rubbish, diet doesn't affect insanity, and thats all serious predujice is
All you self righteous vegetarian fuckers are all the same. Vegetarianism as a health choice is fine by me, but for moral reasons gives you an air of "holier than thou". It's not unnatural to eat meat. It's not unnatural to kill animals for food. The only difference is that they're in pens and we're not spearing them to death. You say it harms the ecosystem and there's a difference between breeding them and hunting them? We keep their populations stable. Early humans are the ones who overhunted Mammoths and drove them to extinction. Now, it's nigh impossible for chickens, cows and pigs to become extinct, because they're our food.
Can I get an AMEN! lol seriously though, i love you! haha, not like that I was about to post something like this, and I agree completely, although I'm a teen vegan, not vegetarian, lol. But seriously, everyone thinks im just in a phase when I was vegetarian for 2 years and have been vegan for almost 2 years now its like, dude, im in for life, get over it! Although, i think getting a shirt that says evil vegan would be cute! teehee, i have weird taste in clothes. They say Hitler loved animals when he was only vegetarian(or "flexitarian" i should say) for a short while on doctors orders.
"Tell me, you foolish vegan zealot, how do you plan to grow anything other than tasty fish and shark flesh in the sea?" To whoever posted that, um we really need to leave the oceans alone. The coral reefs are very unstable as it is, fish farming pollutes the ocean and some species are almost extinct thanx to us!Humans have really fucked this earth up!

Are you guys serious? I am a vegan, and not one of you apologetic vegans who eat eggs and stuff like I keep reading here, and I really like this site. It's funny as hell! If you guys are being sarcastic, I love it! Don't ever break character. But if you guys are serious, well, thank you for helping my case.
Wow. This is one of the most hilarious websites I've ever come across.
I do hope, however, that it's all been done in jest...
I'm an omnivore, used to be a vegetarian 3 years ago - for nearly four years. It did not make me unhealthy - as a matter of fact - that was the healthiest I've ever been - and I was not 'always hungry and angry' as one of the retarded articles has suggested. If one has at least half a brain and is literate, they know that all the nutrients that one would normally only get from animal products have to be still supplied (B12, etc) and that one can't just live on chips and salsa. One of the reasons why I stopped being vegan after a year was because I found out that B12 and omega-3 fatty acids (read: brain food) can only be found in animal (by)products. Eating free-range/organic eggs, drinking organic milk, and eating organic cheese can be in no way bad for either the consumer, nor the animals.
I understand that many are put off by the 'holier than thou' attitude of some vegans and vegetarians - I am too; however, that doesn't mean that what they're saying (well, some of it at least) is not true.
I am a vegetarian and have been since 1984 ! I am extremely healthy, energetic, eat delicious food and am a Peta supporter! I think they do a great job. I can't see anything wrong with promoting ethical treatment of animals in a world of selfishness and hate.
I am sure people are put off by militant vegetarians because deep down they know they are wrong.
By the way neither Hitler, Pol Pot, Manson were are vegetarians... funny site though.
I was brought up being forced to eat meat as child, this caused me to be Ballemic, suffer from anorexia and all sorts of other problems. Finally the day came when I was able to stop my parents forcing me to eating meat and cook for myself.
I became healthy again and have never suffered from these illnesses again. I love my food now that meat is no longer harming me.
Docters and councilors couldn't help my eating disorder, but becoming vegetarian did. You don't need to eat meat to be healthy. Vegetarian for ever!
umm, i just think that this is funny to read. Ive been growing up being forced to eat meat over veggies. and its lead to many issues with my life. (not saying that is horrible to eat meat)i have limited my meat and eaten more veggies. since then ive been better and i have come to know myself much better. And about that child abuse part.... really? i would have to extremely disagree with that. because when it comes to child abuse theirs is nothing to blame except the abuser.

I am a vegetarian and am embarrassed by militant vegetarians.
I think it's a shame that some omnivores assume we think we're better than them. It's my personal choice, I don't even mention my diet unless it comes up in conversation.
Nine times out of ten I have to deal with angry meat eaters demanding that I justify myself to them. I have never asked this of them. Live and let live.
I am a vegetarian for ETHICAL reasons...brutalizing, torturing, and slaughtering helpless animals who have NEVER harmed us in any way is morally repugnant.
Could you look into an animal's eyes and kill it? If so, you are just plain cruel. I am knowledgeable enough about this issue to out-debate anyone on this subject. Our bodies are not meant to eat animals because of our digestion system.
For those of you who refuse to get educated...it's your karma.
Okay, I'm only posting a comment to this because I don't have an account, don't wish to, and therefore cannot start a discussion. First off: I am a vegetarian. I love animals. If I were a cow or a chicken or a pig, I wouldn't want to end up getting eaten by people who seem to have no respect for any other living being other than themselves. (Note: I am not saying everyone who eats meat is like that, because then this whole post would be an oxymoron, but a lot of people I've met ARE like this, and it makes me mad) Yes, I am a vegetarian. And I'm proud. I have vegetarian friends, and I consider going vegan once I'm of age to move out. None of that makes me evil. Okay, so maybe Hitler was a vegetarian (by definition of the word at is time, which was merely reduced consumption of meat, not excluding it altogether), but Saddam Hussein ate meat. So, with the logic of this website, since Saddam Hussein ate meat, then all people who eat meat must be terrorists. Yes, that's right, if you have the IQ of the person who made this site, everyone who eats meat is a terrorist. That fat guy you see in Burger King every day? Yeah, he's going to bomb the Pentagon, and his wife who cooks him supper every night will hijack a 747 on its way to New York. And, obviously, since Charles Manson enjoyed a burger or two in his lifetime, all meat-eaters are cult leaders and psychopaths. How's that for logic? Oh, and since Benjamin Franklin was quite promiscuous, then everyone who sleeps around is a genius. And, and, since Albert Einstein married his cousin, everyone in the world who is incest must be a brilliant physicist. Speaking of whom, Albert Einstein was a vegetarian too. He did great things for society, there's no denying that, but somehow he managed to do it while still being a son-of-the-devil vegetarian! Oh, wow, how could that ever happen? A VEGETARIAN being GOOD? Oh, but that's impossible, since ADOLF HITLER was one, ALL OF THEM must be evil by the all-knowing logic of some fat malignancy of a human being who sits around all day in his mother's basement eating pizza and making stupid hate websites based on his angst for the world and his inability to get a girlfriend! I swear, SOME PEOPLE need to grow a frontal lobe and quit ripping on other people's beliefs just because they have nothing better to do! Read a book, listen to some music, go for a walk, just do SOMETHING other than make fun of people who you OBVIOUSLY lack the mental capacity to understand!
"Speaking of whom, Albert Einstein was a vegetarian too. He did great things for society, there's no denying that, but somehow he managed to do it while still being a son-of-the-devil vegetarian! Oh, wow, how could that ever happen?"
Get your facts straight. Albert Einstein was a vegetarian for the last year of his life. His major contributions were long before that.
This whole site is a joke right? I've just been fliking through it and laughing my head off. Seriously ups to the guy who made it, it is hilarious. Yes because I don't wear leather my 'feet will stink very badly' LoL Really? Great comic relief, even if it is just a load of bull. Notice that there were hardly any statistics or FACTUAL INFORMATION to actually base any of this on. At least vegetarians had the brains to run some tests before talking out of their arse.
Right, I get the whole thing about PETA, but there's no need to say all this false stuff about vegetarians! I'm not evil! I'm one of the nicest people in my group of friends.
I'm vegetarian because I like animals and I don't want to eat them because the methods of killing are cruel.
I'm not "trying to save the world". Alot of vegetarians say being vegetarian will help save animals. BUT IT WON'T because they're still being killed and turned into meat!
I just like to know that what i'm eating hasn't been put on my plate by brutally torturing and killing an animal.
@whoever spoke about their kids “being” vegetarians.
You should be ashamed of yourself as a parent: forcing your children to adhere to your choice in diet; Your children are no smarter, stronger or holier than my carnivorous children.
"At least vegetarians had the brains to run some tests before talking out of their arse." Tests? Of what? Is it "healthier" "moral" "makesmebetterthanyou"? Find some real scientific evidence before hawking your misinformed opinion.
The closer you eat to how your ancestors ate, the better.
our ancestors had to do what they had to do to survive, and kudos to them...
but we don't have to eat animals to survive, we only do it to satisfy our own taste....
the bad it in much much much outweighs any good that could come from it, not just health wise, but environmentally also.. but a lot of vegan/vegetarians have a hard time realizing that there are plenty of good people out there that eat meat. ....
Okay, so I'm a child. A vegan child. My parents aren't. I'm not malnourished. There are B12 supplements, humans are NOT hamsters, and why the hell would I love PETA?! Also, Hitler's dead. Why does it matter if he ate meat or not? I can name lots of evil people in history who did. I would also like to point out that I am completely healthy and in a hell of a lot better shape than my brother who eats meat and excercises the same amount as me. And finally, yeah, there are vegetarian kids who eat too much junk food, but there are WAY more obese omnivore children out there, and you don't see me writing blogs about how their parents are evil. Peace out! :)
These are the things I find evil about vegetarians:
1) The way they indoctrinate their kids at a very young age by taking them to abattoirs. Of COURSE that would turn them into veggies because childrens' sympathies will always be with the fluffy kind no matter what!
2) Remind us how much the animal has suffered before it reaches our plate. Now unless you were a sheep in your last life HOW THE FUCK WOULD YOU KNOW THAT?? I would imagine that a sheep grazing peacefully all of its life in a field and only ended by a merciful electric bolt to the head is a damn sight more humane than the malnourishment and denial you expect us to live.
3) When you say how all intelligent people will eventually become vegetarian. Well aren't you the clever bastards. In fact we meat eaters are so thick we think meat grows from the ground! No it can't do otherwise it would taste revolting like all veggie crap.
To Whom it may Concern, My name is Daniel Geraghty. I am 17 years old and an born and bred irish. I am also a vegetarian. I was told about your website by one of my close friends and after looking through it I found holes in nearly every arguement you've made concerning vegetarians and us being evil by using myself as an example. You claim that children hate being brought up vegetarian. That is solely a matter of opinion which will differ from child to child, therefore it proves nothing about us. I was raised vegetarian, have been my whole life. I've loved it. I'm fitter and healthier then all my friends, all of whom eat meat regularly. You claim people raised as vegetarians have stunted growth, which is also wrong. Even when I was in the womb my mother never ate meat and since I was born I've never tasted meat. I'm 6ft 3inches tall, taller then the majority of my school including teachers. You've used a few profiles of vegetarians and vegans who turned out to be mass-murderers/murderers, but there have been countless murderers throughout history and when you compare the ratio of vegetarians to every day people who've killed it's obvious your diet doesn't make one damn difference. Let's take previous american president, George W. Bush. Most likely the dumbest and weakest willed man to ever gain a seat of power. He wasn't a vegetarian or a vegan. You claimed that we vegetarians "are ill prepared to compromise with their new age religion and so seek to find other like minded individuals with whom they hope to bond." Wrong again mate. My girlfriend is not a vegetarian or a vegan and I love her dearly. She's easily the kind of girl I could spend a lifetime with, regardless of whether or not we share the same belifes. She eats meat, I'm a vegetarian. She believes in God, I'm an athiest. Etc. None of your arguements have any solid foundation. I would advise that you close the site before you embarras yourself even further.
WELL I am a vegetarian and one of the kindest people I know (if I do say so myself) and certainly not 'evil'... anyone who can claim that someon who is AGAINST abuse, cruelty and murder is 'evil' seriously needs to see a mental health professional.
To the makers of this website.. GET HELP.
Oh and no I'm not some crazy extremist, just a person with a conceince, perhaps others should try to obtain one too :)
