Grown up with
science but act like uneducated. It is quite difficult for me to understand the
exact psychology of man that people have strong scientifically method of inquiry and making judgment, but why does it not happen with religious matter ?
We are born as
Omnivore not as either Carnivore or Herbivore. We have canine teeth to eat
meat, we have mole for both veg and non-veg, we have stomach to digest both veg
and meat which unlike either in cat family which cannot digest vegetable or cow
family animals which neither chew nor digest meat. We naturally follow the food
chain, the trophic level of eating. All these are natural orders.
We all know plants
also do feel pain if we say that cows and other animals feel pain only the
difference is the number of senses which the plants have four sense (there is
commonly known) while we humans have five basic senses out of which 'touch' is
genuinely common to both plants and animals.
Discriminating a
living being based on the sense (and size) which can or cannot stimulate to our
action is illogical, unscientific and beyond sympathy. It's discrimination in
human terminology to speak broadly and all are same in front of this logical point
of view; we are following just the natural path and source of trophic. The point is that all these are in the system
of food chain. We cannot distort this natural path of food chain.
Why Muslims are
prohibited to eat pork is that pork has lethal tapeworm that is difficult to kill at far high level of temperature of boiling
which is beyond our common man's ability to cook at that much of high
temperature. There is conditional flexibility in this Islamic law also that
Muslims are allow to eat pork if there comes such a situation where there is no
food to eat except pork. And, why Muslim take out blood of terrestrial animals
called as halal way of killing is for the medical benefits while consuming the
meat.
And,
if we think of conserving the number or the family of the species whether we
humans eat, say, the cow or not the cow or the animal will die of some or some
other reason, we cannot save the animal from being dead. Many species
which none of them are not the prey of human beings are endangered and many has
come to brink of extinction while many has already extinct.
And, putting a law by a group of people to regulate the food habit of some other group of people is nothing but just the violation of their rights. I would call this Jungle Law which is visibly constructed by a group of educated people for some vested interest. No man will not want to live under this kind of social contract.
