I would recommend qualifying and changing the scentence snippet "is believed to be the oldest society promoting vegetarianism in the world"

to

"is believed to be the oldest society promoting vegetarianism among a prodominently non-vegetarian society in the modern world".

[edit] The term "Vegetarian"

The article currently asserts that "The term "vegetarian" was coined on 30 September 1847 at the first meeting of The Vegetarian Society." The OED lists the earliest usage of the word as 1839.--Larrybob 16:39, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
