According to meat-eaters, Pythagoras was the main “cultist vegan.”

Then Einstein joined the same “cult”

And a whole bunch of other weirdos too: Leonardo da Vinci, Nikola Tesla, Tolstoy, Newton…

Just imagine,the greatest minds of humanity, the ones who pushed science and art forward,
all of them were “crazy vegans.”

Vegan Bullshit Bingo #7:

Veganism is like a religion

That sounds like an attempt at discrediting Veganism as unreasonable and irrational, just to not seriously deal with it. As Veganism is based on facts, logic and common sense, it is the exact opposite of a religion. Consuming animal products though, mostly means blindly following irrational traditions and ignoring the facts or refusing them by reasoning: “That’s how we’ve always done it”. That sounds more like a religion to me…

Well if the definition of a cult is: Cults are social groups which have unusual, and often extreme, religious, spiritual, or philosophical beliefs and rituals.

How is it unusual to not eat what you don’t feel like eating and how unusual is it to be selective in what products that you buy?

If they think that we are all like that cannibalistic looney who calls human flesh vegan; that ain’t vegan, that is a fucking crazy person who eats meat.

Yes, it’s called projection.
