Vegan Fallacy

I know a young woman who spouts the vegan fallacy.  She states plainly that eating meat is wrong.  She goes on and on about the suffering of the animals as she farts and swallows more sprouts.  She is decorated in henna and is able to strike yoga poses that would injure most.  She sometimes walks or runs.  Her long lanky frame seems fragile yet flexible.  She looks slightly older than her age.  She doesn’t look healthy to me but she claims to be the epitome of it. 

I also know a very old man.  He spouts the wisdom that only time can bring.  He plainly states that vegetarians are wrong.  He goes on and on about how life is life.  He says vegans are hypocrites because they place a higher value on animal life while they ravage plant life.  He says plants are defenseless which makes them more innocent…more pure.  He says he would rather feed on the flesh of those who are not so pure.  He states plainly that eating plants while maintaining a hypocritical purity is wrong while he farts.  He is almost 100years old and only stopped smoking cigarettes 30 years ago.  He can walk with a cane when most others are in wheel chairs.  He doesn’t look healthy to me but he claims to be the epitome of it. 

I know that we have the ability to eat plants and animals.  I choose both because I believe both are better.  I spout the satirical phrases of midlife while I fart on everyone.  I understand that people will believe what they want to believe.  Sometimes what they believe disturbs me, but I will try not to be disturbed.  I will go my own way and allow them to go theirs.  If they press against my will, my wrath will entice them to move.  They may sit in their towers of hollow knowledge while I bask in the sunshine of my Id’s creation.  Don’t feel afraid to look up words that you don’t know.  Don’t feel afraid to dance naked if the situation calls for such an act.  Don’t be afraid to eat what ever you want!  Don’t be afraid!
