So, I told one of my good friends today I was going vegetarian and she said "gross" & "they are going to die anyways" & "god put them here on earth for us to eat." So, the animals have a purpose, to be eaten by us superior anthropoids; what is the human's purpose? To achieve enlightenment, bla, bla, bla? I'm not buying it. As a matter of fact I'm finding it extremely difficult to comprehend just what the hell I'm doing here on earth. Eating other animals, giving them purpose, taking from the land without contributing, and all for the glory of being capable of "enlightenment."
It just doesn't make any sense.
And while yes, all animals die one way or another, & me stopping consuming them is going to have ZERO impact upon the amount of animals who are slaughtered for food, I don't care.
I don't want to be the one on the fork, & I'm not going to consume any living thing which has been subjected to slaughter for my consumption. Getting ill thinking about the cow I saw with it's head set & ready to be chopped off. I just can't see that as being his true motive for being placed on the earth, & I can't believe in a God who would design such a cruel system. Maybe they are put here just to reach enlightenment, like me.
I don't know. And I don't know why this became so important to me all of a sudden.
But it is. So, here's introducing the new, improved, vegetarian Sasha.
With or without your support.
