Guest guest Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 I am not a vegetarian. I was purely vegetarian for first 16-17 years of my life and was mostly vegetarian as long as I stayed in India. After coming to USA, I have been eating chicken and eggs. I do believe that meat, eggs have better protein and eating them gives more energy, makes on stronger than eating vegetarian food alone would. I also think eating meat makes one more aggressive and violent. But, I also believe that being aggressive gives one better chance to succeed in life. Many/most of highly successful leaders, managers, CEOS, executives are known to be quite aggressive. Indians in generally are not very athletic and performance of India in physically demanding sports has been extremely poor. I think it might be due to primarily vegetarian diet which is common in India. And, yes, I also think that a diet consisting of light vegetarian food in moderate quantity helps pacify mind and it helps get rid of excessive violence, anger and cruelty! I think killing animals and eating them can make one cruel! But, I also think aggressive, cruel and violent people have better chances of success in the battlefield and war! And, I believe history has been mostly written and dictated by those who have won wars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it when you talk dirty! Actually, I don't mean " intelligence " in terms of IQ, which has been " proven " to be a huge hoax! See " The Mismeasure of Man, " Gould. I mean the White Light of Awareness Delighting in the Cosmic Play Of Infinite and Boundless Order Everywhere So, it has nothing whatsoever to do with Ego, Rather, egoless blissful Celebration of isness At play Like the genius of numbers, Music, each and everything In perfect harmony The Symphony of Life In rhythm and rhyme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
