But the point is, if a farmer eats his cow during a dry spell,
he'll have no cow when the drought ends, and he won't be able
to plant or farm.  He's *FINISHED* as a farmer, and has to move
to the city, or die, or both.  Since it might be hard for a farmer
to let his cow live for the long term benefits when he's watching
his children starve during the short term effect of a drought,
very powerful reasons are needed to save the cow, and thus the
farmer as well.  Hinduism provides these reasons.
