the Vegetarian, etc. group, but seeing your post made me want to respond.

DU is not hostile to veganism. However, some folks, myself included, have a problem with the proselytizing of the lifestyle. I'd shut the door in your face if you were trying to get me to join the Jehovah's Witnesses or Mormon church, too.

Just eat what you want to eat, do a little superior dance about it, and leave the rest of us out of your philosophical beliefs.
