This is a serious question and not meant as inflamatory: Why do vegeterian people have different "levels" of being vegetarian???? It seems kinda odd to me that you can ride the fence, yet still label yourself as vegetarian.

BTW, my sister-in-law is vegetarian, although she does eat certain white meats every once in a while. Again, something I don't truly understand.

If someone is being a vegeterian for health reasons, I get that. Low fat diets, stay away from greasy meats....I get that. What I don't get are the politically motivated vegetarians. I don't quite understand their ideology.

Someone please explain that to me.
