This part I have a problem with. I never said we ought to eat meat. We're free to do so or not. It is, in my opinion, an amoral act.
In addition, rape and murder are unjustified because people don't generally wish to be murdered or raped, and therefore it's reasonable to not murder and rape others so that our desires would hopefully be respected.
Let me know when other animals are capable of respecting other animal's desires (including humans) to not be eaten.

So, where, in your opinion, is it rational to draw the line?
