Vegans tend to be creative and intelligent.  We tend to think outside the box, heck, we don’t even know there’s a box.  We are compassionate and we show and live our compassion.  We are trying to make life better for all earthlings.

Why We Became Vegans

Thirty years ago when we became a vegetarians, farming was different.  Most of the farms were run by families and, although slaughter houses were vile, animals on the farm were treated fairly well.  Now most farms are run by big business and animals are crammed into small spaces and treated deplorably. Modern farm animals’ lives are like a horror story.  Their only way out is a torturous death.  We have since become vegan. We do not want to be any part of that.
