I'm pretty sure that the evidence is that a mostly plant-based diet is better for you than a mostly meat-based diet. That does not mean that eating animal products is bad for you. Correlational evidence does not necessarily lend itself to causal arguments.

The fact is that if you make statements like, "if you look at the evidence, blah blah blah", you are attempting to convert someone. Not that that's a bad thing.

And, who says ppl aren't accepting the consequences of their choices? There is the underlying assumption that if someone eats meat, he or she is somehow irresponsible. That is not something that can proven as truth, so why even worry about it?
