Why I am not a vegan

[Minyatur]

I meant that one less consumer would not necessarily impact the total number. I am very well aware how statistic works.

For someone who likes to see the bigger picture and higher meanings of things, this is an ignorant statement (not meant in the derogatory sense; meant in the literal sense).

Everything matters. Even the smallest thing. If you are going to continue along this line that eating meat is what you choose for whatever reasons (or because you have no reasons), then it would behoove you to stop trying to justify it in this manner, among intelligent people. What you do does impact the whole. 

Perhaps you could comment on my post about linear time. 

I do not so much try to justify myself, I feel called to do what I do and put words upon what has no words.

I can't either equate that if you for example would eat meat, that it'd increase the suffering of others. There is a possibily that it can create this cause and effect but does not necessarily mean it does. I do agree with your conception of time and do not have much to comment on it.

I went over subjects such as this one with a friend of mine quite a lot of times and one realization he had about me is that I tend to pour love in what was created without love. He was often trying to be a mirror for myself and it wasn't really working, after that realization he stopped. In my case I do not think that eating meat is a deep rooted desire within me which is why I said I do not feel karmically involved, I believe what I do to be under the guidance of fate, whether it paints white or black. I'll probably spend a part of my life eating meat just as I'll spend another part of it not eating meat, each of them having their own purposes toward myself and other-selves.


I do not necessarily want to deny that I can have an impact, but even if I do I won't consider it a waste. I still do believe with my state of mind and soul, there is little possibility that my actions create a time/space cause and effect that will cause further sufferings. This is only what my intuition tells me, not something I can share proof of.
