An animal can. and i dont feel it right to kill, to end the existence of that animal to have dinner. I mean, i dont wanna be eaten for dinner. And the animal dosn't either. So i prefer to keep it alive and i'll keep eating the plants.
Unless again i find that eating meat is necessary to keeping me alive.

How do you know that animals have souls and plants don't? Is your research peer reviewed?
Do all animals have souls, or only vertebrates?
Do bees have souls? What about starfish? Flatworms? Sponges? Do oysters have souls? Amoebas? Sea Squirts?
Do you believe that a great sequoia is less deserving of life than a paramecium, simply because it is a plant rather than an animal?
