I’m not triggered, just questioning your sanity. When you try to force this putrid life style full of psychological, and hormonal problems onto other people.. that is where we get upset. We care much more about our health than you do, otherwise you wouldn’t be a vegan. The healthiest food on earth doesn’t come from wherever you want it to come from, it comes from livestock. You can’t walk past a grass field, and then magically make that healthy.. it’s just not.

Vegans have lower rates of diabetes, heart issues, some cancers, and tend to live longer than high meat diets, but hey, you can (and do) pretend it’s being forced on you if that makes you feel better.
Not saying all meat is bad for you, (it’s not) just that you’re ignorant and being melodramatic. 🤷♂

You actually are since the Bible is quite clear that things like humans ending each other and humans devouring animals is “fallen behavior” aka the result of sin entering…
The Bible is quite clear that humans were originally created to eat plants not animals… So if we’re going to presuppose the Bible then you are going against God’s original design for your body…
There is much in the Bible that will avoid suiting your narrative on this and nothing you can cherry pick from the Bible that can falsify what I’ve said here… 😉

This deeply reflects the extent to which humans can become enslaved to their desires. Without stopping to think or reflect, they often submit completely to their whims, willing to do anything—even harm others or themselves—in pursuit of momentary pleasures, just as the jinn warned. This shows why we desperately need the mercy and guidance of Allah. Religion is not merely a set of rules but a divine light and compass that purifies our hearts, disciplines our souls, and directs us toward a life of purpose, balance, and righteousness. Through Allah’s wisdom revealed in religion, we learn to overcome our base desires, live with humility, and fulfill our true purpose—pleasing Allah and benefiting all creation. Only by following this sacred guidance can we free ourselves from the slavery of fleeting desires and find true peace and meaning. 11:12

veganism would be our only hope to stay within the climate targets set by the Paris Agreement, plus a global adoption of veganism would have “transformative potential” for ecology, as one study put it. but seeing the dislike ratio of this video and all the negative comments is terrible. explore my youtube posts on my channel (not my uploads).

Happy that she’s an entrepreneur but sad to hear more plant-based nonsense. As a medical provider I treat patients every day for occult anemia, prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes due to excess starch. Vegan diets are mostly starch and if you’re consuming meat or dairy substitutes, you’re eating processed food. We evolved as omnivores and our colons are shorter as a result of eating meat. Furthermore, being vegan isn’t necessarily better for the planet. There is plenty of evidence regarding soil degradation due to poor farming practices. Soybeans and corn yield billions of export dollars and most are GMO. Regenerative farming solves this problem.
It bears mentioning that researchers were paid off in the 1960s by the food industry to demonize saturated fat when there was emerging evidence that sugar/alcohol/fructose consumption is at the core of chronic health conditions. These researchers decided to target saturated fat instead which laid the ground work for the never clinically proven fat hypothesis. Please inform yourselves.
