00:00If you eat animal flesh, you cannot justify it by saying that a lion or a wolf too kills other animals to eat.
00:10A lion or a wolf has no option to not to kill.
00:15You have that option.
00:16Man is not necessarily a herbivore.
00:19Man is more of an omnivore.
00:21Therefore that option is there.
00:23You could have decided to not to kill but you chose in favor of killing.
00:28Therefore you will be punished.
00:29A lion is never punished because the lion had no option.
00:32A lion has done nothing wrong.
00:34In fact even if a lion kills a human being, really it has not committed a crime.
00:40That's how lions are.
00:41They are supposed to kill to eat.
00:43But if a man needlessly kills an animal, then the man will be punished.
00:49If not by law, then by existence.
00:52A human being is a decision maker.
00:54A human being is someone who has a choice.
00:57Choose very very carefully.
