THE TALK or THE DAY


vegetarian church Is to be established IN ma
dclphis. One OF the fundamental principles OF tho
church will be that life is sacred and that therefore
the shedding of blood though 10 be for the sake
Of providing food for the human race, is wrong But
the vegctarians don't follow out their principles.
In the eyes of the scientist, there is no appecabs
difference between plant life and life. The only
objection that vegctarians have to the shedding Of blood
is that 1t terminates life but from the scientific point
OF view, they terminate life every time they eat
potato or tunp. Nor Is 1t competent for them 10
say that sort Of life involable than another
sort. Animal life is more highly organized. 1t Is true.
and therefore its sensations better understood by
human beings but for aught We know, the killing OF
vegetable may be to 1t as much Of TRAGEDY As the
killing Of animal is TO 1t. 1t is very convenient TO
make arbitrary distinctions between different forms Of
life but IL is neither scientific nor logical.
