In regards to eating meat

[BrownEye]

We're just discussing the spiritual implications of eating 2D entities.

In my understanding most small plants are not a complete individual, especially not losing an experience because of the amount of experience alloted to them, or even experiencing the suffering in any comparable scale. A tree on the other hand is very much an individual in my understanding, and can suffer.

Another strange thought, the comments about the form of energies in the sun that "sacrifice" themselves in our benefit. (can't remember the question number) This is comparable to the seed that chooses to bear for us. Wild animals are a sacrifice, but farming methods are not, simply because they have already chosen to terminate and exit that existence, but we pump them full of drugs to overcome nature and extend the suffering.
