Is anyone on here a vegetarian?

What were your moral/ethical reasons for adopting this eating style?

Take a chicken, for example. Should we, as humans, the highest form of life, allow our chickens to roam freely in the fields, bask in the warmth of the sunlight, and live their lives that way? Or not?

Does a chicken exist only so we can eat it

not about vegetarians, but, if God gave you a gift, cherish it, treasure it, be proud of yourself

This is not astrology related, so it will probably be moved.

Care to maybe make it astrology related?

LOL
That's such a funny question.

Apparently we all eat each other anyway on this planet.. and round it goes!
I mean - Do vegetables exist just so we can eat them?

I'm a vegetarian.. But I'm not very sure that there is a point.

First of all I would feel like a hypocrite eating meat when I would not be able to kill an animal myself. I don't like hiding from the reality of what I am eating. Secondly, being great apes -- something like 90% of our diet should be greens & fruit... technically... I'm not sure how we manage to eat as much meat as we do but it's obviously unhealthy. There is a lot of unnecessary killing going on - and animals being bred to feed our consumerist society. We just don't need to eat that much meat to survive.

However - The reason I'm not sure whether it even has a point - is because there is so much pain going on in so many different contexts - that I'm not sure it can be prevented or eradicated. I don't think that it is possible to survive in our world, unless you kill other things.. even if it is just plants or ants - as you walk down the street...

Whoop whoop, Betty, fellow vegetarian!

I've always been a vegetarian, there has been periods where I was desparate and had to eat meat but my goal is to become vegan. Cheese is hard to sacrifice though!

I can't stand the idea of eating an animal, I've always been hyper-sensitive to any harm done on animals and this might have to do with having Pisces Moon? Although my new special friend is a vegan and he has Libra Moon (there is my astrology related bit).

We have basically become vegans very recently...I actually don't know the last time we ate any meat...
I have always been a veggie lover anyway...and my body just can't tolerate meat anymore...I love pasta, rice, beans...and getting back to the fruit thing...
For us, it is also a spiritual thing...a love of all things, animals have soul...I never thought about it up until a few months ago...I am surrounded by vegans now...
Perhaps for some, it's strong Uranus, or Neptune aspects? My Uranus trines my Moon, and my Jupiter...My Neptune conjuncts my Venus and Merc, trines my Mars, and sextiles my Pluto...not sure if that has anything to do with it, just trying to keep it real thru Astrology....

I'm God's vegetarian because after I attempted Kundalini sans the grounding, it nuked my solar plexus, demolished my digestion and turned me into an instant vegetarian. Can't tolerate it, won't go near it

Ask Me anything. Anything. I will contrive to bring you the answer. The whole universe will I use to do this. So be on the lookout. This book is far from My only tool. You may ask a question, then put this book down. But watch. Listen. The words to the next song you hear. The information in the next article you read. The story line of the next movie you watch. The chance utterance of the next person you meet. Or the whisper of the next river, the next ocean, the next breeze that caresses your ear—all these devices are Mine; all these avenues are open to Me. I will speak to you if you will listen. I will come to you if you will invite Me. I will show you then that I have always been there. All ways.
