This article tells about a proposed Bill of Equality (in the UK) that will give vegans the same legal protection as religious groups. At first the idea struck me as quite far-fetched, but then I thought, why not? In many ways the values behind veganism (and animal rights) resemble religious tenets. That’s definitely something to consider in other countries too.
