I don't eat meat partly because 60 billion new animals are bred in harsh conditions each year so humans can eat them. Therefore, I figure the spirit World has to send 60 billion souls to take on such lives whether they want to or not. Perhaps we're putting in too big of an order.

Also, if somebody instructed me to kill an animal to eat it I don't believe I could do so.

I also don't eat meat for energetic reasons.
