I should have been more specific. The point isn’t about what predators do in the wild, or about accidental, unavoidable deaths. It’s about the violence that is intentional, done on a massive scale, and most importantly, completely unnecessary. It all boils down to choice. A lion in the wild isn’t having a moral debate about its next meal; it’s just surviving. We, on the other hand, have tons of other options. Nobody’s talking about punishing someone for accidentally stepping on a bug. It’s about questioning the entire systems that treat living, feeling beings like they’re just products for our pleasure or convenience, when it’s totally avoidable.

Killing animals

I like Garuda community.

If we remembered all our past lives, it’d probably slow down our progress. The weight of guilt, pride, or old grudges could mess with our current mission. That’s why Spiritism says forgetting is mercy. It helps us focus on the now.

Imagine the chaos. Your mom today might’ve been your wife in another life, lol. That’d mess with your emotions and duties now. Spiritism teaches we forget to keep things clear and fair in each role.But yeah, reincarnation being proven? That alone would change how we see justice, pain, and purpose.

No big deal at all

Also, even if you could somehow pull the stick, Newton’s Second Law (F = ma) tells us that the force required to move it depends on its mass and desired acceleration. If the stick were made of steel with a 1 cm radius, it would have a mass of approximately 754×10^6kg due to its enormous length. Now, if you tried to give it just a tiny acceleration of 0.01 m/s² (barely noticeable movement), the required force would be:

F = (754×10^6) × (0.01) = 7.54×10^6 N

That’s 7.54 MN, equivalent to the thrust of a Saturn V rocket, just to make it move at all! And that’s not even considering internal stresses, gravity differences, or the fact that the force wouldn’t propagate instantly through the stick.

Even if the stick were made of the hardest known material, the information would take about 7 hours to travel from Earth to the Moon, according to the equation relating Young’s modulus and the material’s density.
