It's NOT becoz............
Scientifically both plants and animals are having one basic unit common i.e. cell.
It's contents are remarkably common except few like chlorophyl, centrosome, plastids, vacuoles etc.These cell constitute the whole body of an animal or a plant.
Now basic difference being its inability to create sound [ cry ] when broken /eaten /plucked, a plant or vegitable, can not make it eatable ethically and logically.
People eat vegitables just becoz they dont scream or cry. People drink milk which was actually meant for the calf and not for any other purpose. Where is their ethics ?
The only purpose of production of fruits in the plants is to propagate it's kind and not to feed humen beings.
Then why do we eat fruits ?
There may be a reason that blood of the killed animal makes them to have a guilty feeling, which is red and like ours becoz of hoemoglobin. But then the blood of plants, incidently not red, is as important as red blood.
We love to kill kockroaches just becoz they dont have red blood.
The canines are the teeth which are not found in Herbivorous animals. The fact that canines are present in humen beings make it clear that humen are Omnivorous as the God meant us to be.
Humen are having long and very peculiar kind of intestine meant for digesting both meat & vegitables. The intestine of herbivorous animals can not digest meat.
You can not feed meat to a sheep and grass to a lion.
Can you ?
A sin is simply religious observation and since God has himself made us omnivorous, it is not at all a sin to eat non-veg like it is not a sin to eat vegitables & fruits.

The dietary laws for Israel recorded in Leviticus, chapter 11, which include, for example, a prohibition against eating pork, were given for specific religious and, perhaps, health reasons. The New Testament, however, makes it clear that observation of these Old Testament food laws for religious reasons is no longer required in the New Testament era. Jesus Himself declared that all foods were "clean" (Mark 7:17-23). In Acts 10:9-16, Peter was informed by God through a vision that he was not to reject the use of certain animals for food on a religious basis. The apostle Paul also writes, "For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer" (1 Timothy 4:4).
The Bible makes it clear that "the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit" (Romans 14:17). There is no saving grace in either eating or not eating certain foods. We are saved by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; see Ephesians 2:8-10. This, of course, does not mean that all animals we use for food are of equal value from a health standpoint.
Many people feel they can win God's favor and have eternal life by following the dietary laws of the Old Testament. But this is a misunderstanding. You cannot save yourself—but Christ can, and He will as you commit your life to Him by faith.

Eating does not defile us:
Luke 7:15 There is nothing that enters a man from outside which can defile him; but the things which come out of him, those are the things that defile a man.
Nothing is unclean:
Romans 14:14 I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
Food does not commend us to God:
1 Corinthians 8:8 But food does not commend us to God, for neither if we eat are we better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.
Eating of meat or of vevgetable or of both therefore will not cause us to sin.

Jesus said that not what goes into man defiles him (there were all types of laws on what you could eat and how) but what comes out of man (the heart) that defiles a man. For out of the heart proceeds evil thoughts, murders, adultries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies. It is so true. I would rather a person eat whatever they wished but be a benevolent person then obstain from meat or whatever and be mean.

No
Because God told Peter that it is not what you eat (goes into your mouth) that defiles you (is a sin) it is what comes out of your mouth (your words) that are sinful. Because out of the abundance of your heart (what is in your heart) the mouth speaks. So now we aren't sinning because of what we do or don't eat.

Please define "non veg..."
God gave us freedom to do anything to glorify him (except sinning, of course).
So... whether we eat meat or eat vegetables only, so long as we do it for the glory of God, it's fine either way. Because by being happy, we make God happy.
1 Corinthians 10:31 "So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."

Gluttony is sin. And believe me, vegetarians can be gluttons too. Eating anything, including meat, with a thankful heart is not.
Bon appetit!

I assume you mean Christianity. No, they do not consider it sinful. Jesus had fish, lamb, and beef, but no pork--a traditional Jewish diet.
