Are we debating over whether killing cow is gud or bad? Well if that's the case, then we have a common sentiment. We shouldn't. However, for those of us who have had beef, we were either very young when we came here, or arent very religious, in which case, they're both valid reasons because in the first one we weren't conscious enough to differentiate, and in the latter, you dont give a a crap about a lot of the religious beliefs. However, for those of you who CLAIM to be hindu, myself and other, i think it's hypocritical to eat "meat", and swear and do things that we're not supposed to and still call ourselves hindus. Kuro milena ni. Tyasaile, if you eat any meat, cow khanu thulo kuro haina, but because we have a tradition of sacrificing goat and other livestock to goddesses during festivals like dashain, consuming mutton and chicken or buffallo aint that bad, but slaughtering cows, the animal we refer to and look up to as mothers, who literally feed us their milk, is kind of a psychological barrier that we face. it's hard. But there's feta cheese and goat milk, we consume both. what about that eh?
