Just for Info:

Manusmriti (Chapter 5 / Verse 30) says,
"It is not sinful to eat meat of eatable animals, for
Brahma has created both the eaters and the
eatables."

Manusmriti (5 / 35) states:
When a man who is properly engaged in a ritual does not eat meat, after his death he will become a
sacrificial animal during twenty-one rebirths.

Maharishi Yagyavalkya says in Shatpath Brahmin (3/1/2/21) that,
"I eat beef because it is very soft and delicious."

Apastamb Grihsutram (1/3/10) says,
"The cow should be slaughtered on the arrival of a
guest, on the occasion of Shraddha' of ancestors and on the occasion of a marriage."

Rigveda (10/85/13) declares,
"On the occasion of a girl's marriage oxen and cows
are slaughtered."

Rigveda (6/17/1) states that
"Indra used to eat the meat of cow, calf, horse and buffalo."

Hinduism's greatest propagator Swami Vivekanand said thus:
"You will be surprised to know that according to ancient Hindu rites and rituals, a man cannot be a good Hindu who does not eat beef".
(The Complete Works of Swami Vivekanand, vol.3, p. 536).

Rig-Veda book 10 Hymn 27 verse 2:
"THEN WILL I, WHEN I LEAD MY FRIENDS TO BATTLE AGAINST THE RADIANT PERSONS OF GODLESS, PREPARE FOR THEE AT HOME A VIGOROUS BULLOCK, AND POUR FOR THEE THE FIFTEEN FOLD STRONG JUICES"

Rig-Veda book 10 Hymn 28 verse 3:
"0 INDRA, BULLS THEY DRESS FOR THEE, AND OF THESE (MEAT) THOU EATEST WHEN MAGHAVAN, WITH FOOD THOU ART INVITED".

Rig-Veda bock 10 Hymn 16 verse 10
"I CHOOSE AS GOD FOR FATHER-WORSHIP AGNI, FLESH EATER, WHO HATH PAST WITHIN YOUR DWELLINGS".

Atherva-Veda book 9 Hymn 4 verses 37-38-39
"THE MAN SHOULD NOT EAT BEFORE THE GUEST WHO IS BRAHMIN VERSED IN HOLY LORE WHEN THE GUEST HATH EATEN HE SHOULD EAT. NOW THE SWEETEST PORTION, THE PRODUCE OF COW, MILK OR FLESH, THAT
VERILY HE SHOULD NOT EAT (before the guest)"

Mahabharata Shanti Parva chapter 29:
"ALL THE VESSELS AND THE PLATES, IN RANTIDEVA'S PALACE, FOR HOLDING FOOD AND OTHER ARTICLES, ALL THE JUGS AND OTHER POTS, THE PAN AND PLATES AND CUPS, WERE OF GOLD. ON THOSE NIGHTS DURING WHICH THE GUESTS USED TO LIVE IN RANTIDEVA'S ABODE, TWENTY THOUSAND AND ONE HUNDRED KINE {COWS} HAD TO BE SLAUGHTERED. YET EVEN ON SUCH OCCASIONS, THE COOKS, DECKED IN EAR-RINGS, USED TO PROCLAIM (AMONGST THOSE THAT SAT FOR SUPPER) "THERE IS ABUNDANT OF SOUP, TAKE AS MUCH AS YOU WISH, BUT OF FLESH WE HAVE NOT AS MUCH TODAY AS ON FORMER OCCASIONS"

& more...

Each of the above verse has been again and again posted on several different site by a group of people and all they did is twist the word which has no meaning.

Unfair.
Why not ban pork? why not ban chicken? why not ban fish?
BTW even I wonder if Buffalo is banned or not?

Pranab Mukherjee has
approved the Maharashtra Animal
Preservation (Amendment) Bill, nineteen
years after it was passed by the then
BJP-Shiv Sena government in 1995.
Now anyone found to be selling beef or
in possession of it can be jailed for five
years and fined upto 10,000 rupees.
The bill also bans slaughter of bullocks
and bulls, which was earlier allowed.
The new law will, however, allow
slaughter of buffaloes. The law is
expected to hit beef traders, mostly
from the Muslim community, hard.

according to hindu purana , a buffalo is
considered as vehicle of yama raja who
is in responsible of taking our lives in
this earth , so that's why they don't
worship that , also buffalo is a example
of laziness. so its said that if we
worship buffalo then we are willingly
inviting the god of death .
copy pasted..but I guess this is it.

and the cow is worshipped because?
