I became a vegetarian for humanitarian reasons, as I suspect you did, but the health and enviromental benefits are also quite compelling.
It is bothersome hearing Scheele refer to his hunting or fishing. It strikes me as bizarre that one would find killing to be a relaxing activity. Or that anyone could put a positive spin of any kind on harming non-human animals.
One of the many, many negatives about eating meat is that you are taking in or ingesting all that fear and other bad karma.
I appreciate the resource material you pointed out and will definitely look into it.
I saw "Iron Giant" several years ago and it was very good. A touching story.
