Fashion for vegetarianism and Orthodox fasting

In recent years, more and more people have appeared in the world of fashion and beauty who adhere to a vegetarian diet. In addition to the products on the table, the principles of vegetarianism are reflected in the collections. Fashion houses refuse to use natural fur and leather, because for the sake of these materials it is necessary to grow and use animals. A prime example of such a caring and compassionate designer is Stella McCartney, who patronizes the British vegetarian society.

And besides her, many other people from the fashion world adhere to the principles of vegetarianism in food and refuse to wear natural fur, these are Victoria Beckham and models Kate Moss, Christy Turlington, Petra Nemkova and many others. Someone does not refuse meat, but excludes natural fur in their wardrobe, as Paris Hilton does.

Caring for animals and preserving nature is a good thing, but mystylex.techinfus.com/en/ has written more than once that vegetarians and greens do not help to preserve those who really need protection. You can read the following materials on this topic - publication 1, publication 2... And today, let's think about the now fashionable vegetarianism and Orthodox fasting. Vegetarianism calls for caring for animals, avoiding meat and even milk and many other products that require the exploitation of animals. Orthodox fasting is of different limits of abstinence, now there is Great Lent - the most severe. In this post, you cannot eat any dairy products, poultry and even fish; meat is out of the question. For those who fast on Wednesdays and Fridays, you shouldn't even eat vegetable oil! This is such a strict charter of Great Lent, but it does not last a lifetime, and after seven weeks it will end with the Easter holiday, when all Christians can eat any food.

It turns out that vegetarians are kinder and more merciful people, since they refuse meat forever, while Christians do not eat animal food only in fasting?

Introduce your fellow vegetarians and activists of this movement from the world of fashion and beauty. Have you presented? They live in abundance and satiety, so rejection of animal food is not a difficult test for them. And ordinary Christians do not always have wealth, so fasting is more difficult for them. And most importantly, in the name of what is the rejection of animal food? In the case of vegetarians, someone joins their ranks for the sake of a healthy lifestyle, since there is a theory that vegetarianism contributes to longevity, others do so because they want to do good deeds. Vegetarians save the life of animals, which means they do deeds of mercy, but when you live in abundance, such deeds (refusal to eat animal food) do not require much effort, therefore, the merit is not great. Another good reason for giving up meat is that vegetarianism is in vogue today - many successful and educated people strive to lead a healthy lifestyle, protect nature and be merciful with animals.

These are the motives of vegetarians - their own health and beauty, imaginary caring for animals (imaginary, since we are talking about pets) and being involved in a fashionable hobby.

And the Christians? Why do they refuse animal food during Orthodox fasting? Christians are different, and many observe fasting simply because it is necessary, and those who are real Christians fast for the sake of God, for the sake of spiritual cleansing. Therefore, for Christians, fasting consists not only in abstaining from animal food, but also in abstaining from various entertainments, because in the spiritual sense, refusing meat for the sake of some human ambition does not mean anything.

This is the case with the abstinence motives of vegetarians and Christians.With regards to Fashion Houses that refuse to use natural fur and leather, they also do it at a loss. Of course, not everyone will want to buy a bag made of artificial leather or plastic for 500 euros. Not everyone likes artificial fur, but the essence is as follows - vegetarianism is in fashion among the wealthy segments of the population, which means that if a fashion brand refuses to use animals in its products, the brand has a chance to win many new customers for its products.

Now, when there is a lot of competition in the world of fashion, all means are good to attract attention. The green theme has come seriously and for a long time, because it is very easy to feel sorry for artificially grown animals, much easier than solving the real problems of modern civilization.
