context1: J. Regina Hyland became vegetarian for ethical reasons around 1973 after witnessing brutal animal experiments in a college laboratory. Hyland believed that God created animals to be human companions and often cooperated with PETA and other animal rights groups. She maintained the philosophy that one's diet is a personal <strong>choice</strong> and did not condone forcing that <strong>opinion</strong> on others.
context2: In countries that hold equality as important, clustering occurs between groups because of polarizing factors such as religion, wealth or ethnocentrism. Clustering is often considered an enriching part of free cultures in which one can visit a Chinatown or a French quarter for restaurant <strong>choices</strong>. Other sociologists assert that clustering of like minded individuals leads to political polarity and intolerance of contrary <strong>opinions</strong>, as the United States has allegedly been trending since the 1950s.
