[@Mayur_Kedare]

Nope, there are people who will say we can kill and eat fish or one cow is enough for a year without empirical data, BTW. But I agree with your statement. Still, the kill count doesn't matter much;. What matters more, is a life lost is due to justified or unjustified means. *We have to answer directly to the question that was being asked* ; your answer is only applicable if the questioner mentions kill count. If you shift to your version there will be loopholes.

[@hetanthakkar5066]

@@Mayur_Kedare yeah its not a precise argument but would work for 99% of times since non vegans don't really care about plants too. They are just defending themselves by comparing, and this argument would serve well in comparison.

[@harryevans4513]

I think people need to be aware of it (even though the trophic pyramid was taught in early school years), but that as an argument would be valid once we can somehow in some imaginary scenario know that plants are sentient (and it would also change food habits of vegans). But as long as plants are clearly not sentient, it doesn't matter that you kill them. Words that anthropomorphise plants and non human animals are the problem here. We don't know what we even mean when we say things like the plant 'wants' to survive, or it is 'clever to apply' this strategy to spread it's seed.

[@animalsdignity]

We cannot know how much other animals suffer; it is a personal experience. How much an animal can feel pain though, is irrelevant unto mattering because we are all individual souls who matter absolutely unto ourselves. One cannot rightfully discriminate between them. Because it would be discrimination based on irrelevant criteria.

[@AkshayaAnandKrishnan]

Hello! For vegetarians, Going by what you say Consumption of milk products can be avoided by adolescents and adults and to a certain extent even by children... But what about newborns and toddlers? There are many mothers who depend on baby formula because they need to go for top feeding or sometimes even complete formula feeding for their child's nutrition. From what i understand except the infant formula made for lactose intolerant babies, all the others contain milk products and these are essential for a baby's normal growth. Could you comment on this?

@AkshayaAnandKrishnan Hi Akshaya! the lactose and milk free formulas are the exact same as formulas with milk powder in them. The lactose free ones substitute the milk with other plant proteins like soy. I checked Similac brand specifically. There seems to be no difference in nutrition. So if you are using formula, you are not missing out on anything by picking lactose free. There are some vegan pediatricians like Dr. Nandita Shah and Dr. Vasanthi Srinivasan if you are in india (chennai or mumbai). Hope that helps ❤️

Arvind,can you condemn a Lion eating a deer???can you condemn vegans hurting plants to consume them???

[@Burner_269]

Yes, other animals use and kill each other for food, they also do other appalling things to each other. Should we really base our moral societal framework on what other animals do and what happens in nature? We are moral agents and have a choice, we understand right and wrong, animals may also, but they don't have that same choice, they are killing to survive. We can continue to breed, exploit and kill these other beings whose lives matter to them for things we don't need based on our own selfish wants. Or we can choose to recognise the rights of others and strive for a better world for all sentient individuals. Arvind has very clearly addressed your question about plants in the video you are commenting under.

[@harryevans4513]

No, a lion doesn't choose to eat the deer. The words condemn or condone don't make sense outside of humans (moral agents). And no plants are not 'killed' in the same way as animals are. You don't take away anything from plants because they do not have experience. These words are so easily used in common language without understanding what they mean.

[@Vegan123]

Lions are 'Obligate Carnivores' - they do not have a choice - we do. Plants do not have a nervous system
