LET THE LITTLE LAMBS LIVE !
🙏🙏🙏💖 Vegan For the Animals !💖🙏🙏🙏
Traditions have existed for a long time. But they can evolve. We ourselves can evolve. We can truly celebrate life, birth and renewal by no longer killing animals, by not invoking death, by not eating gruesomely slain bodies of innocents. We can be vegan, and our holidays as well as our everyday choices can reflect a true reverence for life in our food and lifestyle choices.

Easter is regarded as a time of rebirth. We celebrate the wonder of renewal as we watch flowers re-emerge after what seems to be a period of death in winter. We are especially grateful at this time for life and birth.
Easter is a time of symbolism. The Easter lily is a symbol of purity and hope. But any flower is pure, and could signify hope. Any flower blooms. We could just as easily celebrate Easter with daisies. In places where real Easter lilies are not available for Easter, some people use folded paper flowers, plastic flowers, or photographs of flowers in their ceremonies.
Lambs have been associated in religion with Jesus Christ, reflecting the innocence and purity of each of them. But just as any flower is pure, so are all animals innocent and pure. However, unlike flowers, animals are sentient - they feel pain, they experience emotions, they want and deserve to live.

Does it actually make sense to celebrate a holiday that is focused on life, rebirth, renewal and hope by slaughtering innocent animals like lambs, or any other animals for that matter, who do not want nor deserve to die for our rituals?

How does ritually killing and eating lambs or any other animals signify anything but the truth that an animal that humans did not need to eat was slaughtered for something as frivolous as a momentary ceremony?

How can it be ethical to take an entire life to satisfy a tradition that could be easily altered so that no killing at all happens, especially a tradition that centers on life?
In some religious systems, spiritual communion is taken in the form of a cracker or wafer that obviously is not actually made from the body of Christ. It is a symbol. People drink wine, or grape juice, not actual blood, to represent the blood of Christ. Symbols are very much an accepted part of religion.
So why do we continue to cruelly slaughter actual, living, breathing, conscious animals for Easter, or any other holiday, when we could just as easily eat a symbol, an Easter cracker or wafer, that does not involve killing a sentient being who wants to live just as much as we do?
Traditions have existed for a long time. But they can evolve. We ourselves can evolve. We can truly celebrate life, birth and renewal by no longer killing animals, by not invoking death, by not eating gruesomely slain bodies of innocents. We can be vegan, and our holidays as well as our everyday choices can reflect a true reverence for life in our food and lifestyle choices.
We can evolve and find ways to express our spirituality that do not involve killing.
