It's just part of the natural food chain. Animals eat other animals and we're no different in that respect. We're the only creatures that raise other animals in cages to be eaten probably because we're the only ones that have that ability. I do believe we have the responsibility to treat these animals ethically and not cause them undue suffering. Standard methods of slaughter are quick and painless compared to the deaths of most animals in the wild. If aliens had souls like we do, that makes them a special creation like us, and I figure it would be immoral to eat us. If there is no God or spirit, if we're are all just more or less evolved animals, then I guess it comes down to survival of the fittest.
