Some of the so called first world nations still simply kill their criminals instead of facing and solving the reasons such nations create robbers, rapists and murderers. I see these nations afraid to see their own intentions, their own way of life, they fear to see the lack of respect they have for others and for themselves. Some of us discover somewhere within our own hearts that besides the truth of very disgusting aspects of life, despite the fact we are going to die someway, we prefer to help others to overcome their sufferings instead of looking for the pleasures of life our western civilisations offers us. So, I think that if we want to help others to become vegetarians we should search more deeply for the reasons why we feel it is more advantageous, why we get more pleasure when we try to help others instead of simply keep looking for fun. Despite the tremendous possibilities of material comfort the peoples of the western developed countries have access to, there is a lot of suffering and standards of living do not show the truth at all.
Children still suffer violence at home.
Child abuse is a fact all over the world. Animal life is ignored as well the lives of our own descendants. It is well known by psychologists that children who received love will give love to themselves and children who were hated will give hatred to themselves as well as to others. Then, when we are not happy we do all this. On other occasions when we feel guilt because we are happy, then we try to destroy our own happiness due to unconscious motivation.
