     Not sure how true it is but I always heard Buddhists in Tibet have long eaten meat and worn fur but get their Muslim neighbors to kill the animals for them

     'Buddha: "Jivaka, those who speak thus do not say what has been said by me, but misrepresent me with what-is untrue and contrary to fact. Jivaka, I say that there are three instances in which meat should not be eaten: when it is seen, heard, or suspected that the living being has been slaughtered for the bhikkhu.'

     The dalai lama eats meat supposedly due to the jaundice he had with hep B....it could have happened that doctors advised him to do that, but id doesn't make no sense.

     @mittimithai It's saying Buddha *would* want people to be vegetarian. In the link it goes on the explain the reasoning.

     I presume the justification is that the animal was not killed knowingly for a specific person.

     @RMIV @mittimithai Not officially, but I seem to have come to a lot of the same conclusions. I might be a Buddhist prophet.

     Keeping animals alive forever is going to require the terraforming of Mars. Do you support terraforming of Mars and do you support the forcible transfer of animals (a possible crime against animality) to the terraformed Mars so that they do not die of Malthusian starvation here on an overcroweded Earth?
