A Tit for a Tat (27)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tit:<\/span> Hey, you’re eating meat?
\nTat:<\/span> Well, it’s ‘pure meat’.
\nTit:<\/span> What do you mean?
\nTat:<\/span> Meat that is permissible by the Buddha’s guidelines, that I didn’t see, hear or suspect to be from animals killed for me.
\nTit:<\/span> Where did you get it from? Random alms food?
\nTat:<\/span> The fast food restaurant.
\nTit:<\/span> Okay, you definitely didn’t see or hear any animal killed for you.
\nTat:<\/span> Of course I didn’t!
\nTit:<\/span> But don’t you suspect some animals were killed for you?
\nTat:<\/span> Well, I didn’t ask for any animals to be killed for me.
\nTit:<\/span> Who were they killed for then? Not me for sure – because I’m vegan.
\nTat:<\/span> Er… they were killed for meat-buyers.
\nTit:<\/span> Doesn’t that include you?
\nTat:<\/span> Er… yes, but I really didn’t ask for any animals to be killed for me.
\nTit:<\/span> Who asked? Not me for sure – because I’m vegan.
\nTat:<\/span> Er…
\nTit:<\/span> Someone has to demand them to be killed.
\nTat:<\/span> Er… meat-buyers I guess… collectively, by their buying.
\nTit:<\/span> If so, you can’t say you don’t suspect animals to be killed for you, even if it’s indirectly!
\nTat:<\/span> Gasp!
\nTit:<\/span> Your impure meat was defiled by denying the truth that you support the demand of killing!
\nTat:<\/span> Argh!<\/p>\n
