I dont think it is a great deal preaching this. Good and noble souls will never kill animals for the reasons of "jiva karunyam" - compassion towards all life. It will take some time for a soul to get to this level of purity. I will not say that a meat eater will not get moksha because it is decided by many other factors too -- but it is unlikely that a soul that has reached close to the doorsteps of God would relish meat eating. Eating meat is not bad, but reveals some kind of cruelty in you, which is not a divine quality.
