for real..they eat plants that had life.so why not eat animals that had life also
There are because some people don't believe in killing or raising animals for food when you can eat perfectly good vegetables and nuts to get your proteins. I'm not sure how vegetarians started but alot of people back through history had to hunt to eat in wintertime, there was no vegetation.
They don't want to eat animals. What I don't understand is, why are some vegetarians perfectly willing to eat eggs when they have the potential to become chickens?
well, if it's cruel to kill/eat dogs and cats, why is it ok to do so to cows and pigs?
vegetables is the beginning of the food chain, they are the only ones that can convert solar energy to energy usable for the rest of the world
The point is that animals are living beings much like us and have souls. Some people find it offensive to kill a living thing to eat.
Not a stupid question at all.

Some vegetarians feel that to kill an animal just for food is wrong. That's their opinion, and they are entitled to it.

Other vegetarians choose not to eat meat because many studies show that a diet containing meat is less healthy than a vegetarian diet.cholesterol, saturated fat, hormones, etc. and they are want a healthier lifestyle.
For some it is a cruelty to animals issue

BUT for others it is a matter of a diet with less fat and other harmful things. Unfortunately, vegetarian diets tend to also provide less protein, unless you are careful.

For a few, it is a religious issue.
If you read the literature, the argument for vegetarianism is very convincing. So much so that you might feel guilty for eating so much meat. However, I couldn't last more than a week without a hamburger.
