I don't really think eating animals is any worse than eating plants. I just don't care for meat. Plants seem to receive a lot more love and care than cows and chickens though, so we can at least say they had a good life. <br />Maybe you could say that is the plant's purpose.<br />Honestly, I've no idea.Rubye Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02511953177053448513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855180793926350647.post-20804958194688423362011-07-08T22:58:49.995-04:002011-07-08T22:58:49.995-04:00I think we all, us human and those cockroaches, al...I think we all, us human and those cockroaches, all have the same soul, or whatever, when we leave our physicality.

It would be interesting to see you cover it in your blog. In the Alaska Eskimo villages (Russian Orthodox) deaths were handled with vigils in the home - quite different from the expoitive commercial death rituals of most of the US.<br /><br />If animals have souls, why do we eat them?<br />the Ol'BuzzardOl'Buzzardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00075162476463971258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855180793926350647.post-7061817170687072312011-07-07T13:57:41.900-04:002011-07-07T13:57:41.900-04:00Who says animals don't have souls?

Human, dog, cat or horse should get the same treatment in my book.<br />Good questions about ghosts though. They are usually seen wearing the appropriate apparel as you point out.
