No. What I am saying is that perhaps food does not have such an extreme causal effect on one's political or religious views. Rather, one's political or religious views might have a causal effect on what one decides to eat.
In the West, your statement is correct (with exceptions such as Seventh Day Adventists) that "I see more long time meat eaters that have strong beliefs regarding this life, an afterlife, a judgemental higher power, and specially endowed spiritual leaders, than I do amongst the long time macros," may be correct, but I dare say such is not the case in India among Hindus.
