Thanks. I'm glad you found value in it!

You and I live in Texas, so we probably know more of these people because of all the ranchers here.

Can you clarify what you mean here? I don't follow you.

Yes, they do. And they not only see it, but they smell it. They smell the stench of fear, blood and death.
I've been reading books about organic gardening, and there is a bug repellent technique wherein the bug you're trying to repel is put into a blender with water, and then that is sprayed on the plants. The bugs won't come near the plants that have the liquified remains of their friends on them. I've never tried this (and don't intend to) but supposedly it's an effective technique.
Apparently animals have an instinctual repulsion to death of their own kind. They instinctively know not to go where others have been killed, because it's obviously dangerous for them.
Well, slaughterhouse cows have to be prodded by electrical shock, to force them onto the slaughtering platform.

Indeed.
Fear generates a physiological response in the body. There are actually fear hormones. Thus, when a human eats a dead cow, s/he is consuming all those fear hormones.
That can't be good!

This point has been made by others in this thread as well, and I still don't understand the necessity of stating that each person is free to do as they wish. 3D humans are free to kill other humans, animals, whatever.
The question isn't whether we should 'allow' them to do so, because they can already do so, whether we like it or not.
The question is a philosophical one: How does killing lower density other-selves reconcile with the Law of One?
