The simple answer: no. I know this because am one (SDA and vegetarian) and I work in a vegetarian restaurant and health-food store. I would say a large number do not consume meats that are "unclean" according to the Biblical guidelines (see Leviticus 11:1-30), while they will eat those considered clean meats, such as chicken and beef. From my experience though, the greater majority do claim to be total vegetarian.
No, all SDA's aren't vegetarian. But they are known for it partly because, yes, a large number of them really are!

N O ! i'm a member of the seventh-day Adventists ( note the shrink-case "d" in day ) and performance been for over 2 an prolonged time. Vegetarianism is a proper-beloved existence-variety, yet no longer an absolute requirement. One does no longer ought to opt to bypass to their college to develop into an SDA, yet one does have a route of teaching until eventually now baptism ! ought to God bless you as you be taught His note <:)))><

No, but it is a practice that all members are invited to adopt for health reasons since the belief is a wholistic one and that the mind and body should be healthy since it is the temple of God.

No, but they are all required to keep a kosher diet as outlined in the book of Leviticus.

They are supposed to be. But then, most people are not really faithful to their beliefs-which really makes them unbelievers-don't it.
