Prabhu you seem to have misunderstood something: no one here is advocating it in any way. As for Banke Bihari temple, it has long been known as the "Vaisya's temple," and this following quote from TKG's Diary should provide further insight into the mentality of those in charge: "During our morning car ride, we passed a cold-storage plant under construction. I asked if it was possible they would store meat. The owner was from Banke Bihari. 'Why not?' Prabhupada said. 'There are so many families and their only source of income is Banke Bihari.'"
