Hi Roxy
I too have considered in the past going 'veggy.' My initial reason was to avoid contributing to the killing of other life forms for any reason - then I thought on! Everything in nature competes with everything else for its survival. Insects eat microbes, birds eat insects,animals eat birds, plants jostle for space and nutriments and light, often killing or stunting each other in the process, Humans kill and eat the lot ( Did you know that plants 'scream' when cut or pulled from the ground according to scientific tests made with electrodes placed on them?) AND Hey! I was so pleased when the Chemotherapy killed the living cancer cells theatening my wifes life. Seems like taking life is a sad but profound thruth governing our life in this Earth dimension. Seems cruel but perhaps its all an illusion. Maybe we will all find out one day when we pass on to Spirit.
