Dog Eating

[Wu Wei]

Don't say that around @Wu Wei

A mauling we will go
A mauling we will go
Hi-ho, the derry-o
A mauling we will go

Why? The appalling conditions and treatment that seem common.

We are not going to become vegetarians or vegans till science gets us lab meat. Food prayer in BhagawadGita:

"Brahmārpañam Brahma Havir Brahmāgnau Brahmañāhutaṃ, .."
To Brahman offered, Brahman the food, to be digested by the fire of stomach which also is Brahman, by me who too is Brahman, ..
(Translation by Aupmanyav)

Will those who eat dog meat switch to lab meat?

In time, they will. Perhaps it will be cheaper and tastier, otherwise it is no go. But stray population is a big problem in India since we have strong 'Animal Cruelty' laws. They have killed people. A recent government order says that strays should not be fed on the street, do it at your place. I do not know who will implement it and who will follow the law?

After that she can marry like any normal girl. It is her maternal uncle who brought her out of the house (tradition again).

@Secret Chief, more information in an 'edit'.

 

[Wildswanderer]

As if that's not as obvious as it is rare and
impractical

I'm not sure what you mean. There's plenty of farms that use larger shelters. Of course you would have to search for who sells thier products but Im sure it's doable.

 

[TagliatelliMonster]

Disgusting.

Boycott what you can!

- What Countries Eat Dogs and Why?


View attachment 68352

I have a hard time looking at this as nothing more then a cultural thing.

Indians don't eat beef - we do.
Americans don't eat horses - we do.
Chinese eat dogs - we don't.


(we = Belgians).

Who are we to condemn other cultures for what meat they eat?

Either you condemn meat eating in general, or you don't imo.
But to condemn meat eating from one particular animal simply because in your culture it is seen as a "special" animal... I don't see the rationality of that.

It's an emotional statement. And it's perfectly fine off course to be off that opinion.
But I don't think it's fair to condemn other cultures for not complying to your emotional standards.


Note, though, that I'm talking specifically about culturally inspired / emotional standards.
I feel like it would be an entirely different thing if the objection would be more objective, like for example if people were happily eating endangered species. That would be an argument where you can make an objective rational case as opposed to a mere emotional or cultural one.

 

[TagliatelliMonster]

No. Anti-dog eating, and they're kept in miserable conditions.

Ever been to a chicken farm/factory?

 

[TagliatelliMonster]

I see dogs as loyal companions thus I'm not keen on the notion of eating them, especially when the conditions and process are cruel. However I do recognize that this is more due to cultural perspective than objective logic.

But cats on the other hand, "bon appetit."

I'm a bit torn on cats.
They are my favorite pets. Totally a cat person.
But if I'm being totally honest..... I think they are delicious.

I don't want to find out though. Although secretly I do.
But I couldn't bring myself to it.


Still. I think they are delicious.

Empty the shelters. Stock the soup kitchens. Win/win.

Did they consummate the marriage?

 

[Secret Chief]

Ever been to a chicken farm/factory?

No, but seen plenty of videos and read reports. (And spoken with a vet that works on farms).

 

[Aupmanyav]

Did they consummate the marriage?

No. But perhaps the dog may have been kept in the room where the bride slept, I do not know for sure.

 

[Secret Chief]

Either you condemn meat eating in general

I do. And an extra level of condemnation for cruel practices and poor conditions.

Correct.

In China, SOME people eat dogs.

The agenda is racism.


In WW2 American propaganda had it
that Japanese are bad people, of course.

Eating raw fish was cited as an example.

Americans are so barbaric, putting big dead
creature on the table then slashing at it
with long knives.

 

[Audie]

I do. And an extra level of condemnation for cruel practices and poor conditions.

On this we agree.

Cool.

You seemed to single out dog eating though.

Yep
