Vegetarians in History

by Emerson Begolly on Sun Jun 01, 2003 12:07 am
First off, I am a vegetarian and have been ever since I was about 5 years old. I have no real idea why. I guess that the taste of meat and the fact that it came from an animal never appealed to me. Althought, I do eat eggs, fish, and dairy. I just like vegetables. Now they have meat substitutes. I believe that vegetables are good for you and important for the human body, where as meat is a non-essential accessory to ones diet. Man can fully function without meat.

Second, are you a vegetarian. If so, please tell me why. When did you stop eating meat. Are there any animal products that you will eat? Please tell me.

Now here is the main part. Here are some inportant people in history that are vegetarians:
-Me (of course )
-Ghandi
-Benjamin Franklin
-Adolf Hitler
-Albert Einstein
-Jesus Christ
-Leonardo DeVinci
-Dr. Michael Klaper
-Henry Longfellow
-Light
-Ella Wheeler Wilcox
-Arthur Schopenhauer
-John Galsworthy
-Jeremy Bentham
-Cicero
-Rev. Dr. S. PArkes Cadman
-Dr. H. M. Shelton
-John Ruskin
-John Stuart Mill
-Rabindranath Tagore
-Plutarch
-Count Leo Tolstoy
-Cardinal Newman
-George Bernard Shaw
-Henry David Thoreau
-Bishop Westcott
-St. Francis of Assisi
