I look at it as having a Christian element. We have, “all the seed bearing plants” to use to create a genesis of mankind. We literally have to create a metamorphosis or genesis of humankind to lift us out of the apocalypse on earth we are creating out of our constant consumption and need for more and more material things. Westerners are deluded if we think environmentalism will save us from a doomed future. Do what you can but right behind us is a whole third world who for the majority wants to adopt our lifestyle. To me going vegan is a step on the chain of becoming godly humans who eventually will reverse original sin and not eat or take from an environment that we make our perfect Eden thru mind over matter. We can eat our way thru dark times ahead till we can find nourishment together and become the light nature needs. We need to feed more with less and part of this is eating light not death. More herbivores in 2025 please!

Thanks for this take! I'm not religious but I appreciate what you're saying. I think of it spiritually too. I don't want to put anything in my body or consume anything that has harmed another being. Doing good will bring me good, hopefully!
