life feeds on life on every level. I do think it important to watch what you eat. and how its harvested and raised. personally, I do some hunting. actually spearfish. lobster hunting, crabbing, scallop harvesting. Im selective. target by species and when spear fishing I usually free dive, usto do a lot of hook and line. but had a hard time with the by catch. the regulations require you to know your species and most have limits. free from hormones and chems for the most part. except for what we humans dump in the ocean. personally I think that flushing our toilets and farming are a greater threat and ultimate disrespect to the living creatures in the ocean and to the planet and to us all. and the list go on. as most of you know. though my views are changing and its not so much about eating meat than it is about the environment and species extinction. heck it in the bible. give a man a fish he eats for a day. teach a man to fish he will have substance for a life time. I think jesus was a fisherman along with a few other things. plants are living. the planet is living. and is constantly replenishing itself. Im against mass farming of livestock. not so much hunting. better for the planet hunting is than farming. I dont feel to much guilt for hunting or gathering some food. it connects me with nature. especially when dun responsibly. I a scuba diver and every time I enter the ocean I enter the food chain. animals eat animals. plants eat plants. and vis versa. its the wheel of life. were all guilty in one way or another. and its no more spiritual or evolved to eat plants than it is to eat a fish or a buffalo. if you waste it. or just killing for sport. well maybe that karma debit may aply? hard to tell. Im not the great spirit. but as far as I can see all cultures have stories uf hunting and gathering for food. its a personal choice. I say stop flushing your waste into the ocean and destroying the environment of all the ocean creatures. go get a composting toilet. if you feel so concerned about the living. and only eat dead plants that lived a full and productive life. they have a propose here to. feeding the bees, mushrooms, ect.....ecttt... life feeds on life... until er can manifest food from thin air. Ill be eating... what's available...and making the best with what I have. and I will give thanks.. to the great spirit.


The Spirit clearly says that in the latter days some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth. For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving
