Do Not Kill The Animals, Do Not Eat Their Flesh
Page 7 of 60

The great spiritual master Srila Prabhupada once said: “Since no one is able to create a living being, so no one has the right to kill. The human laws that distinguish between killing a human and killing an animal are flawed. According to the laws of God, the killing of an animal deserves a punishment just like that of a human. Those who distinguish between the two fabricate their own laws from scratch.” One of the Ten Commandments even orders “You shall not kill”. Here is a perfect law that human beings have disfigured by their discrimination and their speculations.

Men say “I will not kill humans, but I will kill animals”. So people go astray and cause suffering for themselves and for others.

The Kasher Method.

In the Kosher method, it is stipulated that “animal sacrifice can only be performed under certain conditions”. “Only, you shall not eat flesh with his life, with his blood”. (Genesis 9.4)

This is why the Jews try to drain all the blood out of the animal's body before consuming its flesh. The meat thus prepared is called kosher. But this method is flawed, because even though blood is drawn from the arteries, some still remains in the smallest blood vessels. It is therefore impossible to eat meat that is completely devoid of blood. Also, no meat is perfectly Kosher.

Only vegetarian Jews do not feed on the blood of animals.

Vegetarian Jews.

More and more Jews reject the consumption of meat, because to do so it is mandatory to kill a terrestrial and aquatic animal. The number of members of the International Society of Vegetarian Jews is increasing modestly, of course, but steadily. In Israel, more than 4% of the population is vegetarian, and this number continues to increase. In fact, after India, Israel is the country with the greatest concentration of religious vegetarians.

Martin Buber (1878-1965), renowned for being one of the greatest existentialist philosophers and Jewish thinkers modern, recommended a meatless diet.

Isaac Bashevis Singer and Samuel Yoseph, both authors and Nobel Prize winners, explain that vegetarianism is proof of kindness to animals.
