Theos-Talk Archives (April 2006 Message tt00032)

Friends,

Thanks to MKR (see below).

Besides all the strong spiritual, ethical and health reasons to be 
vegetarians, we can also take into consideration that at the 
macro-economical level, meat-eating is closely connected to great 
land-owners who disrespect labor laws.

Ecologically, meat consumption is associated to worldwide deforestation 
whose results on climate are well-known.

In meat-eating with have a key to understand human karma at the stage of 
development. And a key factor to change it for the better, too.

Eating the corpses  of our younger brothers, the animals, is no good for us, 
or for the planet.

Regards, Carlos.
