Busybee, I did not meant that killing in peaceful way is good and merciless way is bad. Killing is still killing I totally agree with your point that "Kan jata bata samate ni samtne nai ho". I was just trying to say that no matter it has been followed by our forefathers why can not we scrap of this type of cruel thing from our culture.. But what I meant is if it has to be done do it in respectful way. The difference I am point out to similar to capital punishment there is a cruel law in Saudi and other countries where they kill people by stoning to death while in developed and human right aware country use lethal injection which give minimum suffering to the person being killed. I mean we can not go out and force all people to be vegan which would be best thing if it happens ... but who are non-veg eaters try to respect the animal when you are producing meat for consumption. Shree 5 your view is really great I will try to search for that web link... may be it will turn more of us into vegan...
