[QUOTE="Babandeep Singh, post: 190659, member: 19701"] VJJK VJKF!!! Well I must say I don't give much importance to veg. vs non-veg. issue but I read certain comments in this thread regarding how to be vegetarian is to be merciful... :interestedkudi: Following articles and studies clearly show that plants do "feel" though in their own, often imperceptible, way...The thorns and poisonous saps clearly demonstrate how they too yearn for survival and self-defence!!! Ever touched a "Touch-me-not"??? 1. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGLABm7jJ-Y"]Amazing Plants - Do Plants Respond to Pain? - YouTube[/url] 2. [url]http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/15/science/15food.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0[/url] 3. [url]http://www.viewzone.com/plants.html[/url] And how much more movement do we need to show that they too have basic instincts shared by other life-forms!! Just because they don't scream doesn't imply they don't have an urge to live on!!! Take a look at this... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bn9H8hbAAWQ"]BBC Life 2009 - Plants HD - YouTube[/url] And what about this (non-veg.) plant... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7eQKSf0LmY"]Life - Venus Flytraps: Jaws of Death - BBC One - YouTube[/url] (whoopsies it's quite hungry...lol) Such hunger...such a carnivorous instinct... Now if I want to eat this plant (say hypothetically :icecreamkudi: ), can I be a vegetarian (and merciful at the same time)?? It is a plant after all...or is it? :winkingmunda: What about parasitic plants like Dodder plant (amarbel)?? The plants themselves don't seem to be much concerned with "mercy"... And what about fungi like mushroom?? Does eating them amount to vegetarianism or not?? and so on... Now I can see why Gurus said that how delving on such topics is fruitless and a fool's game :grinningsingh: And now on evolutionary terms how humans have been through natural selection deemed as omnivores... [url]http://www.superteacherworksheets.com/reading-comp/4th-carnivores-herbivores.pdf[/url] The incisors, the eyes in the front and not on the sides clearly point out the nature's design (Creator's design imho) as far as humans are concerned... If some one is a vegetarian and is happy, nothing better than that :) But to say that those who are meat eaters are somewhat lesser mortals is in my opinion quite judgemental and against the principles of Sikhi... Anyways, no intention to offend anybody... One Love :) [/QUOTE]
