Ra is clearly distinguishing dead animals (meat) from other animal proteins. Very interesting what follows next: in order to maintain the acceptability to your peoples of this non-living, physical material.
Lighthead, do you have any thoughts on what Ra meant about this, in the context of the topic? Maybe I misinterpreted your reason for posting it. Whenever people brought it up before, it was to argue the point that it was only the preservatives that were unhealthy.
My interpretation of it is that Ra is implying that, since the animals are slaughtered, the animals are traumatized in a very real way. I think that as entities, this trauma is harmful to them. And since this trauma is harmful to them (the animals), it must lead to a negative polarization of the person eating it. In other words, eating meat might not be harmful to someone who is Service-to-Self (if anything, the opposite), but instead, harmful to someone who's goal is positive polarization.
I think that the people who put more emphasis on what Ra says about preservatives don't like to accept the full ramifications of the harm that they are doing. Since they like to think of themselves as Service-to-Others, they don't want to even fathom the idea that they are doing anything that might in any way lead them off that path. I don't like that, because that means that they are misleading themselves, and especially others. That really leads to negative polarization.
Otherwise it will probably turn into another thread about what people eat rather than the consciousness of animals.
