My condolences to OP.
My guess is that it tied to the “don’t harm anything” story? I was curious to see how people with these different extremely rigid belief systems adjust in the military.
I’m also “Brahmin” by birth but a beef eating atheist so don’t give a crap about it. But grew up around enough relatives that cared and never understood how they reconciled trying to be strict in some areas but being lax in others.
That’s why I was curious about how they adjust in the military.
- yunohn 3y ago> never understood how they reconciled trying to be strict in some areas but being lax in others IMHO you’re describing all humans ever. We all live with constant choices between conforming and rebelling - religious, societal, etc. It’s not that surprising?
- atonse 3y agoNo but in this case it’s seemingly dogmatic stuff, like hey cook meat in different pans from the pans used for vegetarians, but then eat at restaurants where you couldn’t obviously enforce that. But yes there is always plenty of inconsistency.
