I can appreiate someone sharing their opinion, but perhaps you should do your research before you post such blatant ideas.  I disgaree with a lot of what you said in your article, but I think everyone has already argued that your facts are incorrect.  

Anyway, I've been a vegetarian for four years now, and when i first wanted to stop eating meat, my parents forced me to research health benefits, as well as vitamin and mineral deficiencies assosciated with this diet, i had to read several books about vegetarianism, and i had to research protein alternatives, i've also done several school reports, so i know my facts.

Your arguement about animals going wild, truly won't happen; eating meat is integral to so many societies around the world that it is foolish to claim the entire population might stop eating meat. It won't happen, and therfore i don't condone vegetarians who try to tell people that eat meat that they shouldn't.  However there are more effective, humane, non-pollutant ways to raise and slaughter livestock.

So yes, vegetarians shouldn't tell others to stop eating meat.  Food choice is very very personal and therefore shouldn't be judged.  However, in the same sense, your article is judging our food choice. YOu are telling us what we should and shouldn't eat. It's hypocrisy to blame us for judging you and then turn around and say we are wrong.  YOu entered your article in the discrimination section.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but this section is for strength of the discriminated against the discriminators.  Vegetarians are the minority and scathing reports like this, in which we are depicted as the enemy, makes us the ones discriminated against.  

Perhaps you could argue agaisnt racism or the SMALL POPULATION of vegetarians hell-bent on ridding meat from the world; leave the rest of us to just enjoy our lifestyles in peace.  And do your research next time.

I am a vegetarian because I don't like the taste of meat and I have not enjoyed it since I was 8.  To be honest, I probably don't get enough protein because I don't eat a lot of beans, nuts, or tofu.  However, that does not mean that just because one does not eat meat does not mean they don't get enough protein.  

also, I know there are ways to argue environmental issues on both sides--my personal opinion, though, is not to stereotype people by what they eat.  I don't think worse of people because they eat meat, in fact, I know it's normal and I wouldn't encourage being a full-out vegetarian to most people.  

I don't even like animals that much either.  I would suggest that you would a. clarify that this does not mean all vegetarians or b. instead of slamming all vegetarians, write an article merely asking vegetarians who do have bad habits of being condescending (and sometimes way too extreme) to politely stop and think.  

Still, it was a well-written article!

This is not to say that I am not willing to appreciate your opinion. In fact, I agree with you. People who are vegetarians to "save the animals" are nice, but it doesn't really help. And I don't think I'm so perfect. I just don't like meat. However, if I dare utter the words, "I am a vegetarian," it's all, "You know, you're killing plants too!" as if I haven't heard that a thousand times already, and "PETA will never rule," like I'm a member of PETA.

Great article too.

Thank you so much! I'm not insulted in the least, despite the fact that I am a vegetarian. DISCLAIMER: I am not a member of PETA, I am not insane, and I have not killed anyone in my thirteen years. 

However, everyone hates me anyway, so I'm not surprised that you do. Go on: flame me. Just one last thing before you do: I'm not a vegetarian to "save the animals", I just think meat tastes disgusting. Go on, go on, flame away.
