Research Progress

My Research is on vegetarianism and I have been using several keys words and subjects to find out about it. Vegetarian is obviously one of the big words I have been using. Finding out how vegetarians feel about their subject is the number one resource I can use to start off with. Disproving or finding alternate answers to the questions that arise is how the main parts of my paper will be addressed. The perception of society for being a vegetarian, and the religions and media that back up those beliefs will be addressed as well as the physical health aspects of the argument. The movie the Lion king is one of the media sources that show the idea of the circle of life. Religions like Christianity say that animals were made for our needs, or other religions believing in reincarnation were people can come back as animals. All these things point to a circular theory of balance. One of the other interesting topics I stumbled upon was the environmental effects of turning the whole world into vegetarians. Clearing forests to make room for farms would end up being killing off animals in return even if people stopped eating them. It would mess up the balance that exists in the world, it’s a natural process for animals, humans included, to eat one another. Vegetarianism is not for everyone, and it is just a personal preference of liking meat or killing in general.
