Last week we (
Tekriti people) did sharing forum on Veg vs Non-Veg. This was really a type of disputing GD. Few people were in favour of Vegeterian and few were with non-veg. I noticed few things at time of GD that we should not go for such type of discussions with out being prepared.
At the time of GD I was in favour of vegeterian and was not having good things to speak out instead of its against emotional feelings & ethics and I dont like to kill any animal for my pleasure only.
As I thought of writing a post and just search for "
Reason for being vegeterian" and I found a lot of reasons.
And then I tried for "
Reason for being non vegeterian" and result was intresting, found again 21 resons for being vegeterian, 51 good reasons for being vegeterain and more even in first page.
adding picture of the search:
Thats a intresting fact that being a vegeterian has always good reasons.
I am adding few reasons for being a vegeterian from that search:
* Avoiding meat is one of the best and simplest ways to cut down your fat consumption. Modern farm animals are deliberately fattened up to increase profits. Eating fatty meat increases your chances of having a heart attack or developing cancer.
* A sausage can contain ground up intestines. How can anyone be sure that the intestines are empty when they are ground up? Do you really want to eat the content of a pig's intestines?
*
If we eat the plants we grow instead of feeding them to animals, the world's food shortage will disappear virtually overnight. Remember that 100 acres of land will produce enough beef for 20 people but enough wheat to feed 240 people.
* It's must easier to become (and stay) slim if you are a vegetarian. (By 'slim', I do not mean 'abnormally slender' or 'underweight' but rather, an absense of excess weight!)
* If you eat meat, you are consuming hormones that were fed to the animals. No one knows what effect those hormones will have on your health. In some parts of the world, as many as one on four hamburgers contain growth hormones that were originally given to cattle.
* The part about the antibiotics is really scary to me, I talked to a doctor once who told me that people can be really sick and hospitalized and not respond to antibiotics they need to save their life because their bodies have built up these crazy tolerances to them from eating meat and dairy.
* Water Conservation. It takes 3 to 15 times as much water to produce animal protein as it does plant protein. As a vegetarian I contribute to water conservation.
