Arguments
and spokesmen for vegetarinism have always been many and loud.
These were enthusiastic and efficient, although the wide public
didn't always accept them. The moral views of vegetarians was
summarized by G.B. Shaw in the most proper way of all when he
attached the following postscript to his letters: "Be kind with
the animals and do not eat them" In spite of all positive experience
concerning meat free nutrition (which by the way com be found
in the books of the most important religions) and in spite of
the excellent health of pioneers fighting for the distribution
of vegetarianism, we definitely have the feeling that the ethical
part of vegetarianism should remain a personal question. Killing
an animal in order to eat its meat couses remorse in one but
hunger in another person. It is against the basic guidelines
of democracy to force ethical principles do not come from your
own conviction. There is however another side of vegetarianism
which is not in the shade of faith and religion but a bright
conclusion from scientific laboratories. It is a simple, scientific
fact that the most serious dangers of today's nutrition and
the real murderer of the world - the root of heart diseases
- is animal fat and refined carbon - hydrates. Vegetarian nutrition
on a scientific way, which does pay attention to basic needs
for proteins, vitamins, minerals and enzymes as well as to the
appropriate fat and carbon hydrates, undoubtedly makes your
life longer, increases your body to resist illnesses. No illnesses
will emerge with normal metabolism and normal metabolism is
possible by keeping the basic guidelines of scientific vegetarianism.
It is as simple as this.
Ilyen egyszerû az egész.
(Edmond Bordeaux Székely)
