I'm totally with you, in fact I can't think of much else to say. It's actually more natural, in some ways, to eat meat because it connects you with the life cycles in a very different way. My first thought is that to eat meat is actually part of how you can/should honour the male principles and it's more about honouring the animals that die for us.

I guess that I don't connect my vegetarianism with my spirituality. I am both pagan (lapsed - although we are doing the solstice this weekend) and vegetarian but my vegetarianism is political/ecological - I won't be responsible for the excess degradation/consumption that occurs from the farming practices that we currently use. Hooved feet + Australian landscapes = bad things ;) One of the reasons I don't run a car is the same responsibility about my consumption patterns but it's not about my paganism.

Hmmm. It's an interesting question!
