You should not teach false atheistic theories to our students and at the same time dismiss the Supreme Absolute Truth .....God.

That is dishonest.

You must give the same time spent on your theories to True Spiritual Knowledge taught by the Vedic Literature..

But you give nothing to true spiritual knowledge and give all time to false theories.

Simply dishonest.

So what? Clearly, this is what you do.

They are never 'evolved' and there is no chance or natural selection in the process.

Perhaps you'd care to explain then, why there are MORE than this number of species on the planet now? Not even taking the extinctions into consideration?

Or do you not include plants as living species? Why not? And do they have souls too? Why not? Because then you'd have to feel guilty about eating them?

Plants are living things too. However, God did not create plants as living souls. God said that herbs, fruit, and seeds were to be used as food to eat. It was not until after the flood, when there was a shortage of herbs, fruit, and seeds that God gave man certain animals as food also.

P.S. Dasa is still living in the past before the flood, since his vedic teachings were never updated.

The Krsna's believe that plants have 'souls' too, however the karma incurred by eating plants is not nearly as bad as the karma incurred by eating animals, and is much more quickly "worked off".

As to a specific number of species on the planet, it just sounds like horse manure to me.

Dasa's religion is based on works then, right?

The evidence for plants having souls
is as sound as that for humans having souls.

The Holy Bible has plenty of evidence for humans having souls, but none for plants. 😏

You are saying no evidence is as sound as some evidence. Beside making no logical sense, you provide only assertions without proof. I say some evidence is sounder than no evidence.

I'm replying to you!

I'm asserting there is no proof, therefore my proof is your lack of proof

I say some evidence is sounder than no evidence.
So do I. But you have none.

It is mainly based on devotion, if I understand it correctly.

That's why I have inverted commas around that word.

Incorrect. There are countless volumes written by countless authors giving testament to the existence of a human "soul." There are zero volumes (or close to zero at least, I'm sure) that attest to the existence of a plant "soul." Therefore the testimonial evidence weighs *heavily* in favor of a human soul when compared to the testimonial evidence of a plant soul. I'm not saying "therefore, humans have souls." I'm saying that as far as evidence is concerned, and comparing evidence of human souls to plant souls, the two are not on equal terms.

Eye witness testimony, especially when given by multiple people across multiple cultures and multiple points in history, has at least *some* significance. It is not equal to hardcore, empirical evidence; nevertheless it cannot be completely discounted as completely insignificant. You have to remember that it's only been within the last few centuries that sophisticated laboratories and cameras existed. Until then, all we had to record evidence was eye witness testimony written on paper, or carved on to tablets, etc.
