Hmm, that is true; so let me ask you.

Are you taking life from a source and remaking it over and over again?

Example: i take a pound of flesh from a cow, I breakdown the elements of this pound of flesh to create 20 pounds of flesh by cultivating its basic elements. Is the new Flesh considered Identical to the old Flesh, or something new all together?

Don't get me wrong, I really applaud this accomplishment and wish to see it implemented for the removal of dharma in consumption...I just have questions about it.

You see, the natural world works in this way.

The Physical Consumes The Physical, which in turn changes state for both the Consumer and Consumed; the Consumed are then Consumed once more, which is then Consumed and Consumed again. It is an endless cycle of Consumption that somehow just works, and everything within the cycle is relatively naturally occuring.

This is why I'm curious on the impact of Consumption's Cycle. To breed life specifically for death is the highest accomplishment we've achieved in this, modifying our foods post creation another, however to introduce something entirely new that is not naturually occuring into the cycle is something extremely curious.

If you state it is not a new element, then call it what you should call it. "Cloned meat." for that is what it is. Meat that is cultivated and grown for the sake of consumption, it is not artificial, nor does it take away from the natural cycle, it is just modifying the natural process a bit.

If you are stating that it is a new element to the cycle, then I applaud you, but caution of the effect of the Consumption Cycle, and what it'll do to currently living things, and living things yet to be born (hence the test it out on a small population/animals first)

We really don't need millions of people dying to satiate the answer to the dharma of consumption.
