Are You A Vegetarian?

[Druidic]

My old Teacher used to make roast beef sandwiches so rare the bread turned red. Think of employing way too much ketchup. I ate them.
Gurdjieff used to point out that in the end we are all eaten (by the earth). If an animal was raised humanely it could be eaten without guilt.
When I was younger I disliked hunting. These days not so much. If everyone had to hunt for their meat, animals would only benefit. No merciless overcrowding or wild panic at the slaughter house. With today’s powerful rifles and scopes even lousy shots are pretty good shots. For an animal to escape the horror of being bred for food in captivity, enjoy life in the Wild instead and finally die in the wink of an eye sounds like a better deal to me. Also some animals (esp. bears) suffer terribly from natural disease and infection as they grow older, not to mention being unfit to compete against younger animals for food.
I draw the line at bow and arrow hunting. As far as I’m concerned that’s barbaric for any modern society.
And it should go without saying that I regard 'Big Game Hunting' as an obscenity.
