A diet is not implicitly nutrient complete simply because it contains animal products. You can still easily miss out on nutrients. All diets require ensuring that you have access to important vitamins and minerals. Like I said and showed, you can get all these things without eating animals products.

You’re saying that I have no culture and that I’m a religious extremist (which seems contradictory a bit) for saying that you can get all the vitamins and minerals you need from non-animal sources. That seems a little disingenuous and ad-hominem, no?

No, you're a religious extremist because you're telling other cultures that they need to change in order to fit your belief system.

Calling someone a religious extremist because they think an act is immoral seems to me to be watering down the phrase "extremist" to a useless degree.

Good luck with life, friend, as you're bound to encounter many other "religious extremists" if your POV is so easily challenged.

I don't give a shit that you think it is immoral. I give a shit that you are labeling cultures as immoral and that they need to change to fit your belief system. And yes, I see that as no different than Fred Phelps' ideas.

And yes, there are far too many religious extremists in modern society. Maybe stop joining them.
