Why I am not a vegan

[Jade]

I, personally, do not think the vegan/meat eater threads have been arguments solely lacking compassion. I think throughout the course of time we have all invested a lot of compassion into this discussion. In fact, the discussion is oozing with compassion, maybe too much.

Actually, I would maybe tailor that to say that the arguments suffer from too much empathy. The vegans empathize with the meat eaters and vice versa, which is a large gap to cross, and causes lots of confusion and frustration. But, the only thing we can do to cover the ground between everyone is to continue to share our honest feelings without fear and with open hearts.
