So how do you justifying eating meat? We are omnivores but we have ethics. You don't have to eat meat to be healthy.
I don't have to justify what I eat to you or anyone else.
But I also don't need to be preached at by you - obviously it's a feeling of superiority since you imply eating meat means a person in unethical.

Is that what you think, OP? That the animals we eat are delivered some mercy through our intervention? If you do think that, it's probably impossible to make an ethical case for vegetarianism or veganism - and if you don't...well....

Haven't thought about it much, never really thought eating meat is unethical I would consider it natural, while I do feel we have an obligation to make sure the animal suffers as little as possible out of compassion its only natural for us to eat meat. I could be on wrong side on this one like I said haven't put much thought into it.

Correct, I do feel morally superior.

I'm not sure, I think maybe yes? Want to see arguments from vegans before I convert to wild game-only meat eating.

Why have it suffer at all in terms of farm animals? Again perhaps wild, hunted is the only way to go?

Superiority is a factor in choosing a diet, fantastic! You sure you're not christian?
BTW, if you think wild game that you can buy in stores is not farmed, think again.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

*wild* game is farmed? That's misleading. I'll check it out.
If meat eating was moral I would cease to be vegan. The point is is it does make one morally superior to be vegan *I think*. It has nothing to do with religion. So yes I'm sure I'm not Christian (who tend to eat meat and argue that the bible justifies eating meat so it would make you closer to a Christian if you eat meat.)

lol -- what I'm saying is I want to eat meat I just have to find a solution which I find moral if that's possible. I'm not trying to piss you off. Sorry that I did.

If you want to eat meat then your 'moral superiority' is questionable. You are fronting.
Pissed - not even a little. I just think you are a fraud.
