How did religion influence a persons decision?
There are several religions which have dietary habits based on their scriptures. For example, Islamists and Jews refuse to eat pork because Moses was told by God that these animals are unclean. There is also the fact that these animals have cloven hooves to take into consideration. For similar reasons, Jews will not eat any type of shell fish, or creatures with fins or scales.
Hindus won't eat cows as they are considered sacred for several reasons. Cows are important as milk producers, as work animals or beasts of burden. The primary reason is that all life is sacred and because they also believe in reincarnation, the cows' spiritual process of evolution will be altered. The cow may be reborn as a human in a later life.
Buddhists are completely vegetarian as they also believe in reincarnation. The eating of any living creature will alter its spiritual evolution.
