Re: bananas

The following reasons are why some people criticize you and others like us:

They have been taught since birth to eat non-human foods. Yes, they were taught incorrectly. We vegans know humans should never eat meat, cows milk, refined sugar and grains or anything processed. So, when someone comes along and tells them their steak and hot dogs will kill them, or they should only eat fruit and vegetables, their minds can't grasp it. People were taught by their parents what to eat, now you're saying they were wrong? Until the majority knows the truth, we will seem crazy and wierd to them.

The biggest reason why people can't accept herbal therapies, or the vegan lifestyle, or altenative medicine is because we've been 'brain washed' to believe Doctors know best. If their doctor doesn't say it, it aint so. And, No doctor will ever say herbs or nutritious foods will cure anything.

The AMA and the large Pharmaceutical companies's are taking control of our lives. They will eventually have the say on what we can and can't put into our own bodies. Are we just gonna sit by and let them? The EU just outlawed vitamins in Europe. The new law goes into effect in August. Can you believe that? They're trying hard to regulate vitamins here as well. How much longer do we have before it's illegal to go to Whole Foods and buy a bottle of vitamin C with out a doctor prescription??? Not long my friends, not long!
