One of the ten commandments clearly states: Though shalt not kill.

Nothing about humans. Would you dare to re-interpret Her word to suit your case?

And completely on the side: Appealing to God is not going to convince a lot of people in an atheist forum.
I'm not Christian, I'm Muslim and plus "thou shalt not kill" does apply only to human beings. By your logic "thou shalt not steal" also applies to animals? Haha

Who cares if Atheists aren't convinced, it's none of their business. All that matters is the fact that I am convinced God said so and so I'm going to eat meat, I don't give a shit what other people think. Nobody's business apart from mine.
