Clearly you are extremely biased and refuse to look at things in any other way but life doesn't revolve around "I eat animals or I don't".
Vegans aren't immune to cancer or heart diseases (they only have a small reduction of these in some studies) and they don't live 20-30-40-50 years longer than omnivores. And the reason vegans weigh less is because they're more aware of how much they eat compared to the mostly uneducated (in terms of nutrition) population.

Some eat everything, some eat fish and veggies, some eat veggies, eggs and milk and some eat only plants. Of all of them - taking excercise, drugs, alcohol, smoking into account - vegans live the longest and have the most optimal weight.
