Lies lies and damn statistics!
Its great that being a vegitarian has so many advantages..But forget that!! Its not about that! Even if we found out that eating babies would make us super human… we would not do it!! Being a vegitarian is about the respect of the life of others no matter what they are..be they Human or Animal .. and if we did suffer some consequence ..then it would be worth it.. Because the consequences of living in a world that takes life for whatever reason is sadly clear to those of us who are trully intelligent human beings.
An interesting spanner to throw into the works is that plants are living things too. There is research to suggest that plants are perhaps even further removed from other “objects” than we would have thought possible. Plants can and do respond to human behaviour. Plants which have been in the room when a crime was committed have been used to identify possible suspects out of a lineup, I shit you not. How much you want to read into these reports is of course up to you – ultimately the choice is up to the individual. I don’t think I’m going to stop eating lettuce out respect for the lettuce’s “life” but that’s just my opinion – it is all about where you draw the (your) line.
