If being a doofus is having respect for people whose beliefs don't match my own, then I'm happy to be one. I wish more people were doofuses. Maybe we could actually solve a few problems.

Except you don't have respect. You came in here throwing around accusations of religious dogma.

Like, damn dude, I just eat more vegetables than you.

You're intolerant of us because we have a different moral framework than you. You piss and moan at the mere mention of anything vegetarian.

Meanwhile I interact with meat eaters, every single fucking day, and I manage not to be a complete ass. You can't seem to manage it even once.

You don't even know my diet. Lol. You're assuming what I eat just because I don't agree with your methods.

I never used the word dogma. I just agreed with another commenter that veganism is a religion. I don't happen to see a problem with religion, so don't see that as an insult. I'm just labeling it what it is. Veganism is a religion. Eating vegan isn't necessarily.

But you are right in an oblique kind of way. I have respect for other people's beliefs. Not necessarily their behavior. And yours and OP's is ineffective at actually trying to convince anyone of anything. If I were you, and really believed what I claimed to believe, I'd want to know that.
