2014-02-28: 12 Important Reasons To Go Vegan Today - By Ashley Capps - http://freefromharm.org/why-vegan/
Using the strategy of Deep Conversations, each of the '12 Important Reasons To Go Vegan Today' can easily be changed into open ended questions to start your conversation. For example:
1. Animals Want to Live; They Love Life and Fear Death -> 'Have you ever experienced a joyful/fearful animal? Tell me about it.'
2. The Egg and Dairy Industries Also Cause Immense Suffering and Death -> 'Many people believe there is less harm in eggs and dairy. Why do you think that is?'
3. Science Confirms: We Have No Need to Consume Animal Products -> 'What do you think science thinks about veganism?'
...etc...
