a vegan? Many people ask me, why are you a vegan? My answer to this question is always: I do not think animals are objects. It’s as simple as that. I think animals differ a lot from cars and dishwashers, at least that’s what I have been observing since early childhood. I can not think of any moral justification to enslave or to abuse sentient creatures. Noone has the right to inflict pain for no better justification than it tastes good.
