He was the first prominent modern vegetarian. The Pythagorian diet came to mean an avoidance of the flesh of slaughtered animals. His desire was create an universal and absolute law including injuctions not to kill living creatures, to abstain from harsh-sounding bloodshed, in particular animal sacrifice, and never to eat meat.
Now a poem. Hope you enjoy:
The birds on the air die to sustain thee;
the beats on the field die to nourish thee;
the fishes of the sea die to feed thee;
Our stomachs are their common sepulcher,
Good God! With how many deaths are our poor lives patched up?
How full of death is the life of the momentary man!
Ah, and we can't forget our Moz: No, no, no, it is murder!!!!!!
