Is being a vegetarian a good thing?

Had a teacher that was a vegetarian, that owned a cat. That attempted to make the cat a vegetarian also. The cat died of malnutrition.

As monks that are pacifists don't eat meat. Yet the animal fighting styles they emulate are carnivorous. The praying mantis takes it a step further and eats it's own kind.

Big fish eat smaller fish and birds of prey eat smaller birds. They really take this saying seriously "you are what you eat"

Is being a vegetarian a good thing?

That depends on what you mean by "good thing"?

Is it a bad thing? No. As long as you ensure you have a varied and balanced diet.

We've several vegetarian's in our family tree. Those that are, swear by it, and have been doing so for as long as I can remember, and won't sway away from the practice. I support them!

Now for me, I've tried some of their dishes, and I'm being honest, I didn't like them at all. To me, it's sacrilegious to mess with a hamburger by turning it into a veggie burger because I want my veggies on the side of the hamburger. I've tried veggie smoothies and I'd rather have V8 juice from the store.

I'm like Brian, I'm a meatatarian, although as of late, I'm a LEAN meatatarian through and through.

Doctors have touted that being a vegetarian is the most healthy way to eat, and the more fresh it is, the better. I don't make a habit of debating doctors, and they might be dead right on their findings. However, I'll, as far as being a vegetarian goes, not partake of that practice anytime soon.
