I thought a good test of that would be to see how this thread goes, if people can give information for both sides of the argument without going berzerko. |

Yes I agree Karen. Although what I have written may not indicate a willingness to look into both sides of this discussion I have read widely and agree with most of what is written about the merits of eating vegetarian. I did not feel as though the knowledge was complete and I am really enjoying hearing other opinions and experiences. I often comment to my friends that if people saw or had to kill the animals that they eat, they would most likely be vegetarian!! I live on a farm and I am closer to the experiences of killing animals for food. This does not make it any easier, but I do not consider myself to be a bad person for eating meat.
I love the idea of establishing a 'Forest Garden" and many of the trees I plant on my land are food producing. Permaculture systems are to me the future ideal for living. I think in time people will live close to nature and animals will not be eaten, but this transition will be a gradual one. Cheers Carmen |
