“You don’t eat the cow because it’s produce milk. As such it’s more useful alive. You get fertilizer”
You were incorrect because this isn’t the reason Hindus consider eating the cow forbidden.
Irrespective of whatever started the conversation I was replying to your comment.
Perhaps you should have read my previous babble properly or talked to people who actually live in India before sending me citations written by whitewashed Indians about my own culture.
Sacred doesn’t mean god. Many things are scared in religions but that’s not the same as a god.
Here is cite that seems to match what I was told.

Never said it means the same thing. But the reason you were stating for Hindus not eating cow wasn’t correct.
By your logic it would be just as bad to kill a goat in the Hindu culture.
Did you read the cite? That would show why you’re confused.
The original comment said they view cows as gods which is incorrect.
So I have no clue what you’re babbling about as it’s not relevant to what started the conversation.
Here is another cite that closely matches what I said.

I’ll go with what my friend said and the multiple citations to back it up. I’ve been told this by about a dozen Hindus. Have a good night.
