Cowboys - 
While I see where you are coming from, I think you are going a bit overboard in your arguments of vegan vs. non-vegan. Let me make my stance clear, first off: I vehemently condemn this farce culture, where people make their own interpretation of what their ancestors told them about their religion/culture and act demonic and inhumane against those innocent animals. This barbarian practice has to stop - no question about that. You and I both agree on that.

But coming to your arguments on hypocrisies of non-vegans, I think being a vegan does not earn you any credits either. As we know, our world is not perfect. It's not filled with mushy mushy love all over the place for all, now is it? Our ecosystem works in such a way that one organism is somehow - directly/indirectly - dependent on others. Darwin didn't postulate his theories on natural selection and survival of the fittest for nothing. You ought to be aware of the practical implications to understand his theories. Here's something for a teaser: Carnivores eat meat while Herbivores (vegans) depend on plants - both have lives of their own! Where and how do you draw the line for morality, humanity and discreetness? 

Another thing: Animals or humans, there is barbarianism against both in our world. May be we are more sensitive towards animals because they are innocent and they cannot defend themselves. But what about those innocent people who are being killed everyday by an hour? Should non-vegans keep their mouth shut and let only vegans raise their voice against other barbarianisms, because there will be hypocrisies on their part there as well?
