Why exactly is it ok to cage a cow its whole life, slaughter it, and then eat it but it's not ok to cage a human its whole life, slaughter it, and eat it? What exactly is the difference that makes the former ethical but the latter unethical?
If your only argument is "Duhhhh cow tasty!" then please leave. Serious arguments only please.
Well not all meat is made from cows, I only eat chickens, turkey and fish. I feel a bit guilty about it but they do have miniscule brains, it feels like it's really only one step up from killing a fly or insect.
I think cow and pig eating should be illegal personally. The amount of land it takes up, the methane gas produced by so many cows, the health aspects and so on is the reason why.
With chicken, fish and turkey being so tasty I wouldn't miss beef or pork at all.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
