In my english class we are writing argument essays. I have decide to write mine on why people should become vegetarians. Does anyone know of any really good web sites that have good strong points that I could use. I also need to look at the opposit side of the argument (the benifits of eating meat). Since you guys are vegetarians I thought maybe you would have some insite on some really good websites. Anything will help. Thanks!

Who gives us the right to make the decision to eat animals? How can we eat some animals but then pet animals? Some questions who can think about...

I think www.peta.org (is that the right URL?) has some good information

Definitely check out PETA at www.peta.org - especially look at their vegetarian websites ((broken link removed) (broken link removed) (broken link removed) GoVeg.com JesusVeg.com KFCCruelty.com (broken link removed) MeetYourMeat.com (broken link removed) (broken link removed) (broken link removed) . You can even get a free vegetarian starter kit, which may help you with your essay.

Also FARM (Farm Animals Reform Movement) is a great organization. www.farmusa.org

In Defense of Animals is another good site - www.idausa.org
www.upc-online.org (United Poultry Concerns)
www.hfa.org (Humane Farming Assocation)
(broken link removed) (Farm Sanctuary)
www.earthsave.org (EarthSave International)
(international vegetarian union)
www.mercyforanimals.org (Mercy For Animals)
www.navs-online.org (North American Vegetarian Society)
www.pcrm.org (Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine)
www.vegetarianusa.com/ (VegetarianUSA)

You might also want to try some books .... 2 that are good are "A Diet for a New America" by John Robbins and "Animal Liberation" by Peter Singer.

Let me know if these aren't enough or what you're looking for. I know of more.
