While I’ve never tried implementing either diet, as I’m a strong believer that I was destined to be an omnivore, I do limit the amount of meat that I consume because of how insalubrious the processed ingredients can be to your health. Being vegan or a vegetarian is the root to many unique benefits, according to a number of studies. Protein is an essential ingredient though for most vegans. Have you ever tried cutting out meat from your diet?
And in case anyone here doesn’t know the difference between being a vegan or a vegetarian:
Vegetarianism-People who are vegetarians often suffer from a condition that inhibits their ability to consume certain particles found in meat; or it could revolve around their bond for animals, or sometimes because their religion prohibits them from eating meat.
Vegan-Like with vegetarians, they don’t eat meat. However, on top of that, they cut out any ingredients that are related to animals, regardless if it’s meat or not. They often go as far as to not wear or use animal products as well.

I make no distinction other than one form of meat walks the earth and the other swims it.
I wouldn't be surprised if some of the fish I eat eats fish itself (tuna?), but I'm not informed enough to say, and too lazy to Google, so…

The strange thing about kosher is the restrictions are all on food that can be dangerous to eat if prepared incorrectly. It's flawed rationale, but they're wise to avoid those things.

I don't think they were trying to control people by invoking god. I think over the centuries they learned eating pork could be dangerous, so it's prohibition was part of the natural order they attributed to god.

Okay, so we 100% agree. My language could perhaps be perceived as cynical, but it wasn't intended as such.
I imagine there were a number of deaths from eating pork/shellfish and the elders have spotted the pattern, deemed those foods off limits, and then speculated on the reasons why they were bad.
God was of course the reason for everything in ancient times and so it was naturally considered his will that those foods be avoided. The reason he wanted them avoided was man made though, so at some point somebody has had to turn speculation into "fact".

If you both had to pick one religion though, which one would you choose to follow, and why? Since I tend to disagree with a lot of the beliefs in every bible that I read, I’m currently agnostic.

Hinduism. It's pantheistic and I'm an atheist but a pantheist as well. I'm not a nihilist and believe there is an unexplained order to the universe.
If I were to be Christian I'd be Mormon.

This thread is too narrow. Start a new one with your question and open the discussion wider.
