'''Vegetarianism''' is a worldview and philosophy based around abstinence from [[meat]] consumption. Somebody who practices vegetarianism is referred to as a ''vegetarian''. Vegetarianism is a common theme among the [[Dharmic]] religions, such as [[Hinduism]], [[Buddhism]], and [[Jainism]]. This stems from the belief that all higher animal life is sacred, one of the core concepts of all of these religions. Many people outside of these religions also choose to be vegetarians because of various other beliefs, such as  protesting what they see as harmful practices by the meat production industry.
