Pythagoras' argument, as per Ovid, was entirely moral, based on compassion for the slaughtered beast, as well as the degrading effect that meat-eating has on the practitioner.

When you place the flesh of slaughtered cattle in your mouths, know and feel, that you are devouring your fellow-creature

You go ahead and "know" that. LOL Most people know, realize, that man is a carnivore. There is a balance of nature, and we are part of it.

Wow

Do you feel that way when you eat a potato.

Cause if evolution is true that potato is your cousin.

Just because plants don't have a network of sensory and motor neurons doesn't mean they don't partake of thinking at some level ~ maybe a direct DNA to quantum level sort of computing perhaps ~ total consciousness ~ one with the universe ~ that sort of thing.

I suspect that the plants, if they could, would "object" to our devouring them.
