Childhood indoctrination

Other than that, the simple answere to why we have the right to eat animals is survival - we eat animals.

There are millions of vegetarians and that proves this wrong at least in the general case, some individuals might need meat, I don't know, but I think we owe it to the animals to at least give it our best shot.

If one argues that we no longer need to eat animals to survive, then I can still say that I have the right to eat animals and that this right is given to me through the fact that I am part of a supirior species.

That's not an argument, that's just an assertion that you are part of a superior species. Quite dangerous territory.

How ould that in any way allow us to behave as we please???????
Again you are arguing that we as a species are inflicting harm as if it were already established fact that animals are equals, when in fact this hasnt been established by neither one of you.

I don't claim they're equal, I merely claim they have very similar interests to ourselfs, and evolution underpins that idea, we're very very similar to these creatures.
