Really, interesting to read your views on Stephen Colbert, the "host". It so impressed me how well Jonathan Safran Foer handled the questions and comments from this jackass of an interviewer. Foer wins my total and respect and admiration. To have done so much research on this topic and then, to conclude the interview, to have this guy use a piece of bacon as a bookmark in the name of humor ... Foer: You're a real MAN! The contrast between these two men is striking. His book is an excellent piece of work -- I've read it from cover to cover, and the dustcover makes a good bookmark.

I am glad you like my post. I don't think it is fair to call meat eaters "greedy." One should never try to put down or blame anyone. Ultimately, it just makes people upset, and they will never even consider being vegan. Some people don't have the information or the support to become vegan. Not everybody knows how cruelly farm animals are treated, or they don't know the health benefits of a plant-based diet. If we vegans try to force our beliefs on others or put them down, we will never get our message across.
