I know you know that you're not making a difference and never will. Also, I respect matters of principle, but if there's another cause, I'm interested in hearing it.
Just because there are other protein sources usually isn't a sole negotiator in matters that involve rejecting your omnivorous nature.

Haha - glad to hear it. Yea, I'm not even sure what making a difference means. I have always lived in a semi-depraved society rife with cruelty and probably always will. I'm fine with that.
As for my reasons - it's really just a combo of the two you picked up. 1) I don't want to fund meat manufacuring as a matter of principle (and I do eat eggs and milk so I don't even fully refrain from funding animal farming) and 2) Another feature of my (our) society is that I have access to whatever food I want from just about anywhere in the world. So I can have plenty of other protein sources. Also, I dislike meat more than a lot of them.
I don't see how I'm rejecting my omnivorous nature. That means I have the natural capability to live without meat.
