And then you have a ton of people that eat beef all the time, vs a ton of people that revere cows; in certain places you can be imprisoned or lynched for slaughtering one, google "cow vigilantism".
It always interests me to consider just how relative taboos can be.

- sandspar 3y agoIf it counts, that one country makes up 17% of living humans.
- leosanchez 3y agoI know. I was just curious if there is any other country that revere cows.
- ViktorRay 3y agoDon’t forget Nepal! Nepal’s population is 82 percent Hindu. This means many people from Nepal respect cows very much. It is legal to eat beef in Nepal and many major hotels will serve it. However, it is illegal to kill a cow within the country.
