Nobody is a VEGETARIAN.

I have nothing against PURE-VEGETARIANS except for the logic they give for considering themselves to be PURE VEGETARIANS. 

How about trillions of Potatoes, Cauliflowers, Raddishes, Tomatoes, Corn, Rice plants, and the unending number of plants that we cook and sometimes eat raw??? They also have life the way fishes and other NON-VEG stuff have?? Only because plants can't express them does it mean that they don't feel it or are we human beings pretty happy telling ourselves that they are of lesser consciousness and hence can be chomped up as and when we like them??? In a way we all are non-vegetarians how so ever some of us shout we are not. The day a child is born it starts its life with Mother's milk which carries MOTHER'S ANTI BODIES, MICROBES, and ANIMAL PROTEIN AND SATURATED FATS which are definitely not made by plants. And then some people go gaga that they are PURE VEGETARIANS. What hypocrisy !!!!!!!! How about HONEY ??? Made from Flower nectar (the only plant stuff), and enzymes from the insect BEE. And ya not to forget SUGAR. We are literally eating animal and human bones aren't we???

And if MILK is vegetarian then the EGGS released in the market for consumption is also VEGETARIAN because it doesn't involve killing as those eggs are unfertilized.

I mean I don't understand the stupid logic of so called PURE VEGs that anything that doesn't involve killing is vegetarian. Plants are killed at a higher number than animals and we all know that plants have life too and yet plant eaters are VEGETARIANS.

Sorry my PURE VEG friends, but I am not convinced that you are worthy of being called PURE VEG because even PURE VEGs are NON VEG as it involves more brutal killing.

As simple as that.

Nice thoughts which make pure vegetarians thinking they're pure ahimsavadis realize that they don't really know for sure. But I'm sorry to say that you've confused the term vegetarian ( https://www.google.com/search?q=define:vegetarian ) with the term "ahimsatarian" if there were such a thing. You could edit the post to clarify this, thus making it a more logical than emotional discussion. Whether plants are lesser life forms than animals would be a debatable issue because of the lack of knowledge (at least for me) about sacred texts (or anything or anyone else claiming so) which explain otherwise. For those who follow ahimsa (including me), it definitely helps to give the benefit of doubt to believe that plants, microbes and all life forms have feelings as you rightly pointed out and not abuse any of them to the extent possible. And by the same argument, it also helps for us to assume that there are various levels of feelings experienced by various life forms as vegetarians generally believe and restrict the diet to exclude life forms with higher levels of feelings. As you rightly said, it is wrong for vegetarians to claim they are ahimsavadis without substantiating it.
