That's the point I was making, he can't claim one thing and act in another way. Contradictions don't exist, if you think you have found one, check your premises.
The point I saw you attempting to make was that he was a hypocrite -- and not that he was just plain wrong or ignorant. The latter is the correct point. You were trying to paint him as a hypocritical vegetarian. That charge can`t stick because he is NOT a vegetarian. Saying someone eats meat but is a vegetarian is like saying someone is pregnant but not expecting.

Being wrong in a claim does not make one hypocritical. It just makes one wrong.

Now, if he were a confessed flesh eater not claiming to be a vegetarian but said it is wrong to eat flesh and everyone should be a vegetarian, then that would make him hypocritical. As it is now, he is just a flesh eater ignorant on what it means to be a vegetarian.
