There are also countless pages in other threads, including a compilation made by 4 of us on the subject (though I don't know where it is—it's hidden away somewhere on these forums), addressing the subject of how we treat and eat animals.
I understand your point.
It's just that its beside the actual point.
Compassion is a trait found in animals too.
Like the compassion to give up ones life so another may continue living.
Whether the choice is made pre incarnation or in the moment...it is a choice made by the creator for the creator.
To add labels or judgement is a dualistic notion.
If a dog dies protecting his family of choice, by laying down its life...how is that any different to walking up to a human, laying down and being sustenance for a family?
How is it STS when the animal is the one choosing?
It feels like some wanna victimize animals and label humans the bad guy...like it isnt all part of the same lesson of learning together.
Its pretty self evident that the animal understands the arrangement, as does the hunter.
It is quite an interesting game though...sitting in a completely different set of circumstances, imagining to know the workings, between one creation and the next.
I'm pretty sure they'd be interested to look in on our daily workings for a while n laugh at the people who sit in their heads n have time to chase with clocks being the judge. Paper rectangles to chase with the amount collected, affording the feeling of security.
Spending all day imagining we're living, when in reality, we just wait for the other person to finish talking, so we may reassert our point of view.
I'd rather be the "STS hunter" trying to live as one with all that is, offering gratitude and love to all.
