I don't have to justify what I eat to you or anyone else.
But I also don't need to be preached at by you - obviously it's a feeling of superiority since you imply eating meat means a person in unethical.
Don't hurt yourself patting yourself on the back.
Correct, I do feel morally superior.

I'm not sure, I think maybe yes? Want to see arguments from vegans before I convert to wild game-only meat eating.

Haven't thought about it much, never really thought eating meat is unethical I would consider it natural, while I do feel we have an obligation to make sure the animal suffers as little as possible out of compassion its only natural for us to eat meat. I could be on wrong side on this one like I said haven't put much thought into it.
Why have it suffer at all in terms of farm animals? Again perhaps wild, hunted is the only way to go?
