As A. Whitney Brown said, "I am not a vegetarian because I love animals; I am a vegetarian because I hate plants."

When Plants Communicate, Do You Listen? Plants apparently respond to "attacks" on them, such as eating them. For a couple of examples. see: http://daily.jstor.org/plants-know-when-they-are-being-eaten-and-they-fight-back/ There is an old story in Zen Buddhism about all living things having Buddha nature and it is a sin to kill and eat, say, animals, because of this. But one day a novice asked a master about plants and whether they had Buddha nature. The mater responded "All living things have Buddha nature". The responded "So when we eats plant, they scream as we eat them?' The master responded "Yes, but they do so very quietly." In contrast, on the Zombie series "The Walking Dead" Carl makes the astute observation: "Everything is food for something else." Yes, indeed. -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu<mailto:m...@nyu.edu> --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: wuens...@ecu.edu<mailto:wuens...@ecu.edu>.
