Why I am not a vegan

"It isn't STO to cause the suffering/killing of other-selves by eating them."

Monica, your signature says that...but don't you think there's a chance that it actually could be STO to cause the suffering/killing of other-selves by eating them - since there's a chance they could have incarnated here just for that? They could have done something in another life that made them want to severely punish themselves.

It's not unheard of for the self to punish the self. Self-flagellation comes to mind.

No. That is the task of STS-oriented entities. That is their job: to accommodate such needs. That is how they serve the Creator.
