I think that as entities, this trauma is harmful to them. And since this trauma is harmful to them (the animals), it must lead to a negative polarization of the person eating it. In other words, eating meat might not be harmful to someone who is Service-to-Self (if anything, the opposite), but instead, harmful to someone who's goal is positive polarization.
I think that the people who put more emphasis on what Ra says about preservatives don't like to accept the full ramifications of the harm that they are doing. Since they like to think of themselves as Service-to-Others, they don't want to even fathom the idea that they are doing anything that might in any way lead them off that path. I don't like that, because that means that they are misleading themselves, and especially others. That really leads to negative polarization.
Well said!
You mentioned trauma. How do you know that being slaughtered is traumatic to them? And what does this indicate about their evolutionary state, in regards to them being mind/body complexes?
