Someone spoke to me about hunting and fishing. Showing off a big fish he caught. Then followed up with a personal quote in his next post, "Love everyone unconditionally".
People have no clue how much social conditioning has been put inside of our brains.
Everything you believe is because you've been taught that way and unless you go on a personal journey, trying to find yourself, you will always be a slave to the system.
Off course, we don't think we do wrong by eating animal products. If we thought that way, we would stop.
We don't think it's bad to get a sweet and creamy ice cream because it's there.
We don't think. We don't think really... That's today's problem.
We spend all our time on entertainment.
Netflix, Instagram, Facebook, Alcohols, Parties, Shopping, TV and more.
We are busier than ever but we don't get much wiser.
Then we go around and consider everyone who does spend time, researching and educating themselves, to be annoying.
Suddenly you get people talking to you about the subjects you never even considered and your first opinion is always the one you've lived by.
Never did you question it.
And if you did research, it's likely that you only researched one side of the story and now you have a strong opinion about that theory.
The Earth Is FLAT!..
Another great example. So many people call this a bullshit theory. Off course... That's what they know. That's what they've heard.
But how many people actually studied more than 5 hours into the exact arguments that Flat Earth Advocates have?
All the studies you've read. All the experience you have on our planet and all the opinions you've heard so far are all based on one theory; A planet that's round.
Off course you won't agree with somebody saying it's flat. But you can't argue it. You haven't done any research on this new theory.
It's different from your old theory but just because society tells you one way, you assume it's 100% accurate?
Did you research it?
Did you go out in space and have a look?
The same goes for the theory if we should eat meat or not. If we should consume animal products or not.
If you listen to the top experts in the area of Health, Environment, and Ethics. They don't agree with each other.
This means that your opinion, even if you studied it, was still done by one of these experts. And they can't even decide for themselves.
So go out and make your own personal journey.
Don't be one of those people that think they are really smart but in reality are really stupid. If you think you know something, then you probably know nothing at all.
Take that attitude in life and you will be more open to communicating with people.
To listen. To learn and To improve as a human being.
You don't know what you don't know.
And if you want to see some change in the world.
If you see a problem you don't like.
If you care about animals or claim to love them.
Or if you just want to be the best version you can be.
Then invest some time and avoid distractions.
Go on a personal journey and find your truths.
