My name’s Dayton Jones and I am a vegan. I was a vegetarian 2 years before I went vegan and now it’ll be 2 years in March that I’ve been vegan. I originally went vegetarian because I’ve always wanted the best for animals and after finding out how they’re treated on/in factory farms/slaughterhouses, I could no longer support it. 2 years later I decided to go vegan because I learned that, even though you’re a vegetarian, you’re still supporting slaughterhouses/factory farms. Once a dairy cow, for example, is “spent” (can no longer produce milk because of being overworked) it is sent to a slaughterhouse to be killed for meat. Also, if you support dairy, you support veal, because obviously dairy cows have to be pregnant to produce milk and if they’re pregnant, that means they will soon be giving birth to a calf. So, if they have a female, it’s just another future dairy cow, if they have a male, it’s torn from it’s mother and is considered “veal.” I also think our treatment towards animals is very displeasing to God, for He loves and wants best for all creation, and if I’m trying to do anything, it’s live for God.Tumblr: http://daytonjones93.tumblr.com/ View high resolution
