'''Veganism''' is the following of a diet in which refrains from consuming any [[animal]] products, including [[meat]], [[seafood]], [[poultry]], [[eggs]], [[milk]], or [[honey]]. It is often thought of as a stricter form of [[vegetarianism]]. Vegans also try to avoid use of [[wool]], [[leather]], [[fur]], and other animal-derived products. The basis of veganism is the idea that killing animals for food is only one part of a wider problem of unfair exploitation, and that keeping animals for eggs, wool etc is another form of the same exploitation.
These beliefs are refuted by most, as many believe [[God]] placed animals on earth for human consumption and to allow us to prosper. This is not supported by scripture, as Genesis clearly states that God gave man plants and every green thing for food. In addition, many mistakenly believe it is impossible to supply all the essential nutrients required by the human body entirely through plant products. There is a popular myth that raising or consuming animals causes them painIn actuality, we could supply more nutrients to people through plants than meat, which is entirely falsesince it take 16 pounds of grain fed to a cow to make 1 pound of beef. Animals have no innate fear of death, so although the process of raising them may be slightly stressful, it is nowhere near as horrific long as liberals would want animals are raised and respected and cared after, the public to believe.  One act of the critical fallacies of veganism killing them for food is that it results in fewer animal deaths than farming plantsnot inherently immoral. This is falseHowever, treating them as thousands of animals if they are killed through common and expendable objects would be blasphemy to the process of harvesting a field, while only a single animal death occurs from one slaughtered animalGod who gave us dominion over them. This hypocrisy is usually just leveraged so that vegans maintain their supposed "moral" superiority, instead Jesus speaks of genuine care of animals, compassion and in a manner most similar the New Testament God is stated by Jesus to liberals. The final flaw in veganisim is that it is supposedly better for look after the environment than omnivorous habitsneeds of animals. Liberals will often cite water use as a measure of environmental sustainability, but water isnIf we are to follow God't destroyed by the farming processs example, it just goes back into the water cycle. Because there is no link between methane or carbon dioxide production and environmental change, veganism is no more beneficial to the environment than a normal dietwe must also treat all life with respect.
