Yes. What difference does it make to an Atheist whether or not they kill and eat animals? If they don't like the taste, that's probably the only logical explanation. Other than that it's arbitrary.
Why would a theist not want to eat the animals that god put on Earth for us to eat, and made so tasty in the process?

Maybe some atheists are animal lovers or health freaks, or are just grossed out by the thought of eating animals? Or any of the other million reasons people have for choosing not to eat meat?

Wtf does god have to do with it?

You are so lacking in morals that the only reason you aren't running around harming others is because you're worried about getting caught? You know that means you're a Sociopath, right?
