Should they be vegetarians? Or vegans?
Obviously a question mainly of ethics but also of morals.

It's not unethical to eat meat. I'm vegan except for twice a month I eat hamburger. My body seems to need it; it seems to glue my skeleton back together, which seems to fall apart during the interim.Should they be vegetarians? Or vegans?

Im nit sure if you mean it isn't unethical at all (which it is) or that it isn't for a priest.It's not unethical to eat meat. I'm vegan except for twice a month I eat hamburger. My body seems to need it; it seems to glue my skeleton back together, which seems to fall apart during the interim.
The early humans had no option except to eat meat, and this for hundreds of thousands of years. Why is it suddenly wrong now? I doubt they cleanly killed the animals to minimize their suffering.

I've learned that you have to watch out when talking to our carnivorous brethren about the terrible facts that exist behind their meat consumption. They get quite defensive when you cast their behavior as anything near "wrongdoing." As soon as you've attacked their penchant for eating meat (almost no matter how subtly, or even whether you meant it as an attack or not) they shut down and won't listen to facts. Or they'll even admit that they know the facts, but that they "don't care." Not that they say it so bluntly, but that is definitely the gist of their ultimate response. And that only because they know they have no better argument than apathy.Your body does not need a hamburger.
Have you any idea how the animals are raised and treated before they're killed? And the assumption they are now killed without suffering is very ignorant.
Smart move.I didn't vote because the moral imperative of vegetarianism/veganism should not be limited to "priests and other such like personnel of churchs". That moral imperative extends to all humans.
There are quite a few people I wish would not do what they want. And the majority of meat eaters could easily be "cured" if they were shown how their "meat" is really done and what else they put into it. I.e. they would not want it.They, like anyone else, should do what they want.

How do you distinguish between the two disciplines?Obviously a question mainly of ethics but also of morals.
Morals are the built in (no I don't mean they can't be developed just that they are deep in the core of the human mind) 'principles' (hate that word) that 'tell' (oh my...phew) a person what is right and what is wrong.Sure. Everyone should, if it is reasonably possible to become such.

I'm not particularly keen on forcing my way of life down the throats of others. To me, THAT is unethical.Should they be vegetarians? Or vegans?

Well that's good to know. Glad you brought it up.I'm not particularly keen on forcing my way of life down the throats of others. To me, THAT is unethical.
