They must have some sort of filter enabled where any animal thread emails them then the army shows up. It's quite agenda driven for sure. Some people eat animals, some don't. It should be as simple as that

It is indeed very unfortunate for you. While you're trying to do the right thing you're perceived as dogmatic and maybe even hateful... Its cool that you love animals, I appreciate this, but why not start loving the meat/blood eaters too?

This is one area where we choose to realize the killing of the animal or the sacrifice of the animal more appropriately, is for our benefit and we thank that animal for its sacrifice. I admittedly fail to give thanks as much as I could be but I dont consider it as abhorrent as you but I still accept your dedication to a meat free lifestyle.

Remember the "forcing others"-thing? Ever noticed that your questions only leave yes/no which doesnt really leave an option at all?
So you're intentions are more than obvious...

Firstly, you can never know my intentions. Secondly, asking people for clarification on their comments is valid conversation. Thirdly, even IF I had xyz 'intentions' that pales in comparison to harming innocent, sentient beings.
Whenever vegans talk about cruelty to animals, the standard response from meat-eaters is to start accusing the vegans of being controlling, etc. instead of actually looking at what they're doing.

Which is also true and just as correct. We don't know how and why an incarnation was planned so to place subjective inferences based upon ones personal outlook on what "should" be right is wrought with bias and therefore invalid beyond ones own subjective interpretation.

Are you willing to go so far as to say that it's ok to murder humans then? Hey, why not? Maybe they chose that experience, so we might as well help them!

Let me ask you this , Monica.
Do you feel the animals incarnate against their will? Does not the choice of species go along with great suffering then? Do they not accept their birth/death circumstances? Does not great learning and awareness develop in them life after life, regardless of the circumstances of their death?
I think as far as reincarnation goes us humans have had very cruel experiences, none of which has even cocome close to damaging our essence. Have you never been murdered before?

So sorry to hear about your friend!
I think we all choose our life experiences on some level. We've all murdered and we've all been murdered at various times.
But that isn't the point. The point is whether we, as (presumably) STO beings, should participate in what is generally regarded as STS behavior.
Yes, John Doe chose to get murdered. Does that mean it's ok for us to murder him?
That is the task of the STS entities. That is how they serve. Someone has to do the dirty work.

Cool. I don't feel that I am accusing you of anything though Diana, merely expressing my subjective interpretation. I myself have made controlling statements and I perceived a reflection of that in your quote that I responded to. If you are accused here then so am I!

If that is the case, as Ra indicates, does it not stand to reason that part of that transition would include the cessation of eating animals? I just for the life of me cannot imagine a loving society killing and eating animals but perhaps I am wrong. Perhaps there is a way to kill and eat an animal in a way which is respectful and does not abridge free will. If there is, I sure haven't come across it and honestly, all the justifications I have read for eating animals fall short. If am being judgmental, self serving or close minded feel free to point it out.
