This right here tells me you have not bothered to read anything I've stated...at all! The plane has clearly flown over your head without much of a notice.. :/ ..
And I don't recall food having very many rights in the natural world. In China, they eat cats and dogs.. Hell, I'm a bartender at a high end seafood restaurant (restaurant name protected since I still work there), and we toss lobsters in the steamer everyday. I shuck 100's of oysters each day for my guests at the bar. Right in front of them no less while they laugh and giggle about their trip to Vegas. Humans have evolved to be omnivores whether you like it or not, or if you think it's moral or not to eat animals. If you want something to blame, cry and scream at mother nature, I'm sure she will listen and change everything so you can sleep better at night :/
However, if you want to do something about limiting animal suffering, perhaps you can work on finding ways to make it quick, and to improve their conditions... However, it's not going to stop me from fishing and eating my catch. I am no more morally wrong than a Bear catching Salomon out of a river..
Quote:Also, do you believe in any kind of ethics or morality?
So people that eat meat no lack ethics and morality?
