    Vegetarian for the most part. I only eat meat like when it's a favorite childhood dish or something that cannot be replicated with tofu etc without destroying the recipe. Its hard being a veggie eater when your whole family is totally carnivorous!

    I AM PURE NON VEGETARIAN.

    Even plants have life

    Certain religions have adopted pure vegetarianism because they are totally against the killing of living creatures. If a person can survive without killing any living creature, I would be the first person to adopt such a way of life. In the past people thought plants were lifeless. Today it is a well established universal fact that even plants have life. Thus their logic of not killing living creatures is not fulfilled even by being a pure vegetarian.

    Even plants can feel pain

    They further argue that plants cannot feel pain, therefore killing a plant is a lesser crime when compared to killing an animal. Today science tells us that even plants can feel pain. But the cry of the plant cannot be heard by the human being. This is due to the inability of the human ear to hear sounds that are not in the audible range i.e. 20 Hertz to 20,000 Hertz.

    Anything below and above this range cannot be heard by a human being. A dog can hear up to 40,000 Hertz. Thus there are silent dog whistles that have a frequency of more than 20,000 Hertz and less than 40,000 Hertz. These whistles are only heard by dogs and not by human beings. The dog recognizes the master’s whistle and comes to the master. There was research done by a farmer who invented an instrument which converted the cry of the plant so that it could be heard by human being. He was able to realize immediately when the plant itself cried for water.

    10 Killing a living creature with 2 senses less is not a lesser crime. Once a vegetarian argues his case by saying that plants only have two or three senses while the animals have five senses. Therefore killing a plant is a lesser crime than killing an animal.

    Suppose your brother is born deaf and dumb and has two senses less as compared to other human beings. He becomes mature and someone murders him. Would you ask the law to give the murderer a lesser punishment because your brother has two senses less? In fact you would say that he has killed a ‘masoom’, an innocent person and you should give the murderer a greater punishment. Islam is not based on such logic.

    In fact the Qur’an says: “O ye people! Eat of what is on earth, lawful and good” [Al-Qur’an 2:168]

    I'm sort of a vegetarian, but i often eat lean meat, so I'm a non-vegetarian

    I am vegetarian but can not say pure, as I take onions, garlics, mushrooms and curd. Mushroom is a kind of fungus, and curd is made because of bacteria. Fungi's and bacteria are living things.

    By birth itself we are all non vegetarians.we are drinking our mothers milk.Milk ,butter,ghee etc are animal fats only.......ie whoever is eating these are non veg.All are like that only.but we can tell that i wont eat mutton,chicken,egg etc.etc etc.

    By avoiding some stuff we are help our health only.if we are having plants ,vegetables etc then also we are harming them.

    Without harming anything we can eat .

    The rule of nature is "survival of the fittest" and if one is decaying it becomes fertilizer to other "

    By the way i am so called vegetarian ie no egg,chicken,mutton etc.
