Very very valid points around the ethical question of vegan vs homestead meat and animal products, and personal and collective carbon footprints. I feel that veganism is an inner city lifestyle/perversion, where people cant keep their own animals, go fishing/hunting, or usually being younger people, are idealistic and wanting to make a difference. Good.
At a biochemical level, to ingest animal flesh, fats and diary versus foods and fats that dissolve easily, you know, like being able to wash the dishes clean without hot water and detergent....is a simpler clearer area of thought. Feeling lighter with more energy is what I have recently experienced, but I was eating a lot of meat and dairy before. Mind you if I was too thin, meat would give me energy....
Global economy and future sustainability depend on reform in meat and diary industries. Neurosis are endemic within a factory farm, and many humans too are a factory farmed piece of meat within a national economy.
Leonardo da Vinci, Nicola Tesla, Gandi, Emmerson, Carl Lewis and Pamela Anderson?? to name a few famous vegos.
My personal take is that the car is like the buck board without the horse, schools are like they were in Victorian times, medicine, hospitals and peoples health are getting worse...we really need a quantum leap in consciousness...........I dunno...
Maybe its like that movie Black Robe, when the priest got a warring tribe(Huron?) to lay down there weapons and be peaceful etc etc. They were soon invaded and slaughtered by their neigbouring barbaric hordes. India has a warrior class within the cast system that are allowed to eat meat, the Sikh, bigger and stronger then vego Indians.
If cities decentralized we could grow our own, never commute to work, or need a car (sob), and know our neighbours. Offices and factories could be reduced by 99%, and with a bit of luck I could have more than one wife and never have to go to church.
