Just A Thought ~ FINER FEELINGS

"I am conscious that meat-eating is not in accordance with the finer feelings, and I abstain from it whenever I can."

~ Albert Schweitzer, M.D. (1875-1965) German philosopher and medical missionary; 1952 Nobel Peace Prize winner ~

During the six weeks that I was in Pakistan last year, only twice did someone try to convert me. I told one of the hopefuls that he could not expect that everyone in the world would follow his religion, and that he should learn to accept the existence of other religions, as they won’t go away.

In the same way, I am not hopeful that everyone will become vegetarian (things change, but not that fast). The fact that most restaurants in the West now have vegetarian dishes on their menus, however, means something is happening.
