While watching debates over debates on healthcare many americans, democrats/republicans were making such a hype over abortion and pro-life issue that if the bill was passed it will force all the pregnant woman to abort a child.
It is very surprising that for these gun lover/animal killers a thought of a life of animal does not even come to their mind?
A life of human is a life and not a life of animal..these guys cannot live without eating meat, kill animals just for the sake of fun and talk about being pro-life..what a hyprocacy..
If you want to eat meat, it is disgusting to even say you are a pro-lifer...
One Cannot stop folks from eating meat if that is the culture but at least don't make the claims that you are a pro-lifer..
I feel paranoid myself...
I am just touching the issue of meat eating. There are tons of people eating meat but very nice, on the other hand ...
So, in my opinion; a person eating meat may have all respect and complete human values. Hypocracy is when one doe's not eat meat but may not be a nice person. eating this or that has no relation with ones deeds.
Some says there is life even in plants, and milk is just another form of animal fat; so ...

Looks like I need to improve on my writing skills to deliver the intended message.
Original post deos not mention that meat eaters are bad people or not nice people. Even cannibals could be nice people.
I was just making a comment on respect for life ...any kind..
(also mentioned myself being too paranoid)
There is a more sensitive issue below the usual mudslinging between Republicans and Democrats.
If you go back and study the US history since time immemorial the concept of life has been hotly debated.
I strongly suggest that persons who have interest in history should study the constitutions of USA, Canada and compare it to India.
Many of such books are put up on sale at Walmart. There are plenty of books available which talk about how stalwarts sat together and thrashed out the wordings for the constitution of USA.
The constitution of USA does gaurantee one's freedom to defend themselves upon attack and hence comes the need for carrying firearms.
The same way the concept of abortion, that is termination of life(the jury is out when does the life start 3 weeks ? or more) is still being fiercely debated and the last one was that of Roe V/s Wade where the famous judgement was given out on abortion.
When we look at India with a population of 1.3 Billion we donot value LIFE. The west values life and would go out of the way to rescue/save lifes while in India we are only concerned when it is a headline news. The death of persons does not even make the headline/frontpage news until a few hundreds die.While in the west even a single life is mourned and respected.
I can gaurantee you that if you do a comparative study on Indian, US and Canadian constitution, you will definitely find that the Indian constitution is a very nascent constitution and needs a lot of updating. Many a times our constitution is something like a rehash of the British constitution.
Which once again raises the question (akin to Canada should the O! Canada needs to be modified ?) whether we need to change the Indian constitution. Eventhough it is a document upon which nations are built sometimes when it doesnot reflect the need of the times it should be reworked.
As again as I preach !*%! in CD and also as wanted by BJP, Hindutva forces in India we need to rework the constitution of India and make one uniform document that will reflect the population as a whole and not by groups.

I think the discussion again going in a different direction of abortion/Human life Vs Life in general. I guess the only religion truely of values life is Budhism/Jainism and some Hinduism. By making this statement, again the topic would divert to religion.

IMO, you are evaluating Christian beliefs from Hindu viewpoint.
In India, a country with majority Hindu population, abortion is legal and is practised as a method of family planning. In Christianity, eating meat isn't a sin, but killing a foetus is.
I believe most of Buddhist are meat-eaters, including Buddha, who was poisoned through pork. In Hinduism, only Brahmins (that too only in few states) are vegetarian.
I think your views are just a cultural shock (if you are relatively new to Canada). It took me quite a while to realise/adjust to fact that for most of people, meat was necessary in both meals. For them, vegetarianism is a shocking concept!! I still have trouble explaining people what being vegetarian means, Most of them still believe I survive on salads.
