Hello, my name is Josh. I am a skeptic and vegetarian, transitioning to veganism. I’ve been a vegetarian for almost 4 years. I made the change primarily for ethical reasons, followed closely by environmental. I view veganism, and animal abolition, as not only the most moral position, but the most rational position to hold.

I am also an atheist (raised Catholic), however I’m not particularly passionate about my disbelief. I tend not to engage theists in debates about religious issues, unless those issues attempt to interfere in politics, education or law. I consider myself an Apatheist, meaning I don’t care whether there is, or is not a god(s), it doesn’t affect me either way.

I'm located in Canada, and I work in security at the moment. However, I plan to go back to school to earn a Master of Science (Msc) in Biology. I am an avid fan of science fiction, comic books and video games. I also have an interest in pursuing filmmaking and fiction writing (primarily screenplays and comics).

So, that's me. I look forward to contributing to this forum. If you have any questions or comments, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thanks. No, unfortunately I haven't yet. I lack the funds, experience, equipment, and contacts (can't make films by myself) lol. I do, however, have a couple of potential short film projects that I hope to make sometime next year, if all goes to plan.

welcome to the forum, fellow Canadian! Where abouts in Canada do you live?

Welcome J-Park. I was a vegetarian for exactly four years before I became vegan. During those four years I always thought it would be too difficult. Turned out it wasn't difficult at all.

Thanks, VA! I currently live in Hamilton, ON.

Thanks! I know what you mean, I'm almost there myself. But I slip sometimes and buy products that contain eggs, dairy, gelatin or some other obscure animal ingredient without reading the labels. I also tend to consume foods with eggs and dairy when I visit relatives for the holidays. But other than those occasional instances, I don’t really consume animal products. Hopefully I’ll be completely vegan by the New Year. That’s the goal anyway, as it will mark four years of vegetarianism for me.
