Plants have feelings..? have memory, respond to pain, human drugs & even telepathically. Drop that Salad & check out these experiments!

:pickledance:

Pretty much the only food you can eat that does the least organism murdering is fruits, because plants actually want you to eat those, to y'know fertilize the seeds

why is a plant experiment thread being turned into a religious thread? over plants???

Well, because SOME people seem to think that eating animals is a sin.

As a believer in God and His Son, I have to disagree.

Plants are a self-replicating food source given to us by our loving Creator for our nourishment, medicine, recreation and sustainment.

They are not "alive" in the Biblical sense.

This is nonsense...sorry!

Animals are a self-replicating food source as well, and were given to us for food too, as stated by God Himself (multiple times) in the Holy Bible.

Since you wanted to get biblical. Which is perfectly fine with me,as a believer myself.

Just think of all the millions of organisms you kill when you use antiseptic soap. Or a can of Raid. Or a mousetrap. Or when you are merely walking.

Boggles the non-violent mind... Does it not?

Yes. Plants have life and feelings too. Science has proved it now but these things are stated in many ancient texts.

This does not mean vegans should start eating cows or any higher sensed beings. The reason for being vegetarian is this:

1. Plants have fewer senses than animals(mammals) and humans. When you eat vegetables you are not pulling the entire tree but just a part of the tree which regenerates...Like plucking your hair which does pain but not result in death of the plant. That is the reason to avoid root plants and green leaves extracted by killing the plant. Fruits and dried grains are the best options as the plant is already dead when you harvest the grains and fruits once eaten releases the seeds to bring out another plant. Again not killing the plant.

2. Animals of higher sense like mammals have emotional bonding with their kids so when you kill a cow or a goat it affects its babies or vice versa. Such emotional drive towards its seedlings is not there in plants. Humans are the most social animals so killing a human is the highest sin which is recognized by majority of the religions but most fail short there.

3. There are people who have achieved the highest spiritual status by abandoning all kinds of violence by completely stopping to eat. It is a difficult task for me and majority so I would stick to being as non violent as possible...

Else why should we not start eating our babies....which we are on the path of....I see abortions as one step closer to cannibalism...In fact I have read news about it in North Korea..

Ever heard of a carrot? A potato? A Beet? You're gonna tell me that you are not KILLING that entire plant, when you you pull it and eat it? There are thousands of plants that must be KILLED, in order to eat part (or all) of it.

You are ACTUALLY going to bring sin and religion into this, even though it was God Himself, who told us which animals we should eat?

Ever read God's dietary laws in Leviticus? How about the story of Noah, where God specifically gave him permission to eat animals?

"Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. I have given you all things, even as the green herbs." Genesis 9:3

How about the apostle Paul, where he said:

"For one believes that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eats herbs. Let not him that eats despise him that eats not; and let not him which eats not judge him that eats: for God has received him." Romans 14:2-3

There are additional bible passages that make it perfectly clear that it is not "sin" to eat meat. So don't try and take us down that path... 10-4?






"3. There are people who have achieved the highest spiritual status by abandoning all kinds of violence by completely stopping to eat. It is a difficult task for me and majority so I would stick to being as non violent as possible...

Else why should we not start eating our babies....which we are on the path of....I see abortions as one step closer to cannibalism...In fact I have read news about it in North Korea.."

Oh, for crying out loud! Now you are trying to equate eating meat with "cannibalism"?? I think you've long since ran out of "logic". And so WHAT if some people reach a high state of "spiritual status" because they have abandoned all forms of "violence"?

Many OTHER people have reached the highest peak in their spiritual lives, after a successful deer or elk hunt!

Get the hell out of here with your garbage. And God Himself, according to His own word, agrees with me.

If you did not read or understand what I said...eating grains and fruits and then vegetables...I did not say to eat roots...Also if you believe in the fairy tale that God created everything to be exploited then you are rightly screwed by the TPTB because your God created you to be screwed and exploited by these people. So accept the order of your God and accept the slavery of the bankers and the military industrial complex as they have been created to rule sheep like you.

God or anyone cannot create an ounce of matter....the day you realize that you will set yourself free. The creator theory is made to exploit weaker beings in the name of God. It is sad that you believe in a book which was written by people under the influence of the people who actually killed Jesus...May Jesus give you the right knowledge...

Call the girl and ask her what she eats...You will have to dump all the garbage that is in your head and heart.
