Sounds like the thread worked some magic LoL!
All of the above.
I didn't gain any understanding that would indicate eating animal flesh is, in and of itself, inherently depolarizing, or less spiritually evolved, or otherwise acts to retard the process of consciousness evolution.
What I did gain was increased awareness; awareness of the *unnecessary* cruelty inflicted upon animals in our current systems of animal slaughter. And in response I determined that I wanted neither to participate in nor perpetuate that particular system. I feel that sentient creatures should not needlessly suffer and ought to be granted greater protection.
So, as verifying whether or not meat was humanely slaughtered is difficult in most cases - often because it's not humanely slaughtered - my meat consumption has been greatly reduced since making this commitment. Only once have I deviated from this self-imposed rule of life.
