Give veggies a break
by Srikanth on Jan 09, 2008 09:37 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Your point is well made. The question is really what is food and what isn't. To a vegetarian everything other than vegetarian food is not food. To a non-vegetarian everything other than (possibly) human meat is food. To the Aghoras, everything on this earth including human shit and flesh from rotting human corpses is food.

Now to understand the psyche of the vegetarian who baulks at sitting at the same table as a non-vegetarian eating meat, I suggest that the non-vegetarian sits at the same table as a cannibal eating human flesh or better still an Aghora who is eating human shit!

Well said, you hit the nail in the coffin, these Non-vegies want an excuse to eat meat. They blame the veggies just not feel guilty about the eating it...

Why are you worried about what others eat, whether it is Non-VEg or Veg. If you look exclusively of Veg food, its ingredients are non-Veg if you look at the basics. For eg : for an vegetable, to grow, it needs its manure and nutrients which is derived from manure which is made of composte from decaying bodies from the earth, Similarly in the water there are lots of microorganisms and bacteria, why only food and water, even the air you breathe is Non-VEg.

I think you should be a non-existent species.

Even us veggies are blessed with intestinal flora. Thank goodness.
