The world changes when we choose vegan.
The Christian conscience cannot be satisfied with the non-application of the 5th commandment to animals for slaughter. Anyone who has ever visited a slaughterhouse will be more or less shocked and disgusted by what they see. Almost everyone comes to the conclusion that the brutal killing of animals that were first raised and fattened in order to finally be eaten is unworthy of today's humanity and especially of Christianity
Günther Weitzel (1915-1984),German biochemist and university professor.
Choosing to live vegan is choosing a sustainable future.
We have a choice - we don't necessarily have to eat meat. A vegetarian lifestyle is a healthy way for us humans, helps our planet and saves many animals.

Animal protection is human protection
Fear of life is abhorrence of killing! Animal protection is human protection. Through it we protect the human soul from brutalization.
