Vegetarianism (according to Wikipedia) is the practice of not consuming the flesh of any animal (including sea animals) with or without also eschewing other animal derivatives, such as dairy products or eggs. Some vegetarians also choose to refrain from wearing clothing that has involved the death of animals, such as leather and fur. Veganism excludes all animal products from diet and in some definitions from attire also, whether or not the production of clothing or items has involved the actual death of an animal (dairy, eggs, honey, wool, silk, down feathers, etc.). Vegetarians have varied motivations including religious, cultural, ethical, aesthetic, environmental, social, economic, health, political, and personal concerns.

There's more than one way to be a vegetarian. The choice you make depends, of course, on your deep moral convictions, your sense of spirituality and your cosmic connection to the totality of the universe it also depends on what you like to eat and what sort of diet you're prepared to follow. But take note and be sure you will be eating the foods which contain all the needed nutrients of the body. Your body is the temple of your Holy Spirit so you must take good care as what your beliefs says. ;)
