    I'm not vegan for health reasons. I'm vegan because I care about the animals. However I do think being vegan does help me both mentally and physically. I'm sure that veganism protects you from getting food poisoning as most of the most serious food poisoning happens with meat. As I was once...

    Petition against glue traps.

    When does human life start?

    I was wondering about this. I'm pro life except I don't think human life starts at conception. More likely it starts when the babies heart starts beating or when the baby's brain is developed which happens quite early on. I've read some accounts saying foetuses feel pain at about 8 weeks and...
