Christian Vegetarian Association Presents:
Take
Heart!
George Cheyne
(1671-1743)
Pioneering physician, early proto-psychologist, philosopher and
mathematician, born in Scotland. He is best known for his contribution
to vegetarianism.
"To see the
convulsions, agonies and tortures of a poor fellow-creature, whom
they cannot restore nor recompense, dying to gratify luxury and
tickle callous and rank organs, must require a rocky heart, and a
great degree of cruelty and ferocity. I cannot find any great
difference between feeding on human flesh and feeding on animal
flesh, except custom and practice."
