How can I convert my grandparents to veganism?!
What should I do? I am honking mad right now.
Answers: They are in their 60s and very uneducated to the world of meat and all of disadvantages. They do not seem to understand how the meat industry feeds us propaganda and how God truly intended for us to be vegan. Plus they both have cancer and heart problems from lack of better diet. Most importantly it is immoral to eat meat and the animals that were once alive suffered pain and a terrible life for their taste buds.

Ashely...you changed your last name :) did someone marry you?
show them "meet your meat" on peta2.com
=P
that'll put 'em off.

Buy them the Koran and yourself a Diksionairy.
EDIT
Think about this if it were not for the meat industry those delicious critters would ever have never been born. The meat industry is nowhere near the fur industry. Admittedly there r some people who do mistreat them but that is true in every industry. The chickens r mistreated and that does need to be fixed Cows have a great life and their death is very quick Same for pigs Do not eat sea food but seems that those lobsters do not look to happy. BTW it is not healthy to be a veggy. If u r please get some vitamin supps to make up for the things your body is not getting.
It would be difficult to convert your grandparents, especially if you are aggressive and tell them that what they have done their entire lives was "immoral" or "wrong." Just let them be.
I think veganism is great, but your grandparents have been omnivores for 60+ years now. I doubt you'll get them to switch over. You could try taking them vegan food sometimes, I'm sure they wouldn't turn their noses up at something you made for them, but don't count on a conversion. They have to WANT to be vegan.
why are you so controlling? why can you not accept these people for who they are? it is your problem not theirs. lighten up, yeesh.
where does the Bible say it is immoral to eat meat?
Leave your poor grandparents alone. Don't they have enough problems without you bugging them to death?
Why would you force your opinions on someone else? You cant make them do anything they dont want to. It also sounds like you are the one who needs an education.
Homey thinks you are a silly twit and should mind your own business.
You are a poor imitation of the other Ashleys, and goodness knows they ain't too clever.
For anyone who doesn't know, this is a troll trying to make vegans appear foolish and fanatical by pretending to be one.
Nobody genuine would be so crass as to post asking how to harass and bully two people with cancer.

Don't force your opinion on others. Let them decide no matter how "uneducated" what suits them best.
Why do you want them to become Vegans? Allow them to make their own choices in life.
That will be a tough sell, especially since they are not spring chickens anymore and most likely have their own diets and habits that are set in stone. I would encourage you to choose your battles wisely. Provide them with beautiful salads and veggie choices on the table, but don't force the issue. Also ask them to go on walks with you or do something active so that they could stay young and healthy in other ways too. Your beliefs are strong, but a little respect for their ways would go a long way.
You are an idiot...nowhere is the bible does it says we shud be vegans..if god wanted us to not eat meat why did he design us with incisors..was he drunk when he did it?? u say meat companies fill ur head with propaganda..but thats exactly wot ur gonna do to ur grandparents..yet u dont think thats wrong..how wud u feel if they tried to get u to eat meat..u wud be appauled so imagine how they will feel when u tell them their whole life is wrong and u know wots right...go back to school and get educated..infact just go to school in the first place....ignorant ppl like u deserve to be locked up. mmmm lovely rare steaks :P
Well, there really isn't anything you can do. Focus on you. They get to make their own decisions, educated ones or not. For you to claim they have cancer 'from lack of a better diet' is naive. Are you a doctor? There isn't a way of knowing WHY they have the health problems they do. If you start talking about things like "God intended you to be vegan", they will for sure not listen and write you off. Just set the example, quietly. I don't think God comes into this equation at all, and saying things like that only will turn people off.
Show them a few PETA videos. That should do the trick! I would never force my morals on someone to become Vegan though, just show them how the animals are really treated
animals are here to get eaten dumbass!
mmmmm, chicken burgers, beef burgers, steak....
ps ur question is makin me honkin mad...get a grip!!
I think... you should plant them a tree
It is their choose to convert or not, and the same thing for their diet. It is up to them, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make em drink.
