Ahh I see. Thank you, I didn't understand that part of your approach before. Before I say anything more, let me tell you that I'm not trying to change your viewpoints on anything at all, and I have the utmost respect for you as a person, like I do for all the members on bring4th. But I recognize the path you've taken for 27 years (longer than I've been alive!) with this issue at your side. I would also like to say that I don't hold a position on either side of the issue. I still haven't figured it out myself! (Although I am of the opinion that once a responsible and mature relationship with the planet is established, our population can be nourished entirely with plant material. I seem to have distant memories of it being done on third density venus... ) So any information I'm giving isn't trying to sway anyone to one side or the other, it's just information that I've found interesting and expanding on the subject.
With that in mind, I would like to invite you to read a Kryon channeling session that addresses the topic of consumption of animals. You may have already read it or it may not resonate with you at all. If either of those are the case, I apologize in advance.

Scroll down to the part with the bold heading "Animals", keeping your eyes open for the important words, "at the moment."

Thank you for that extraordinary post, Pablísimo! I agree with what you said about possible distortion. Thank you for bringing the details of those Q'uotes to light, and for the reminder of discretion, even within a trusted source.
I feel the same way about the options pointed out by Q'uo. I think that each person must make their own choice, and depending upon the position of the species, there are better and worse choices to make. Actually, the scene from Avatar came to mind where the female cat person had just saved the main character from the dog creatures by killing one, and she sent its spirit back to the planet with respect, giving it a blessing. Although that situation was self-defense, that part of the movie touched me (as did a lot of the rest of it, cuz it's a very spiritual movie!). I think that, as a species, we would be in a much better place if we could at least get up that level rather than remain at the unconscious, inhumane slaughtering behavior that we currently display.
