Rabbit should be right of horse. Goat and sheep the most right; there is no culture nor religion that bans their consumption. They are that important to human survival.
Yeah, horses are definitely pets and not food in most of the modern world. Rabbits are hard to place. They just don't come up very often anymore as either food or pets.
And we don't live in those times anymore. Why should we do what a culture tells us to do? Just because it's culture and/or tradition? That's a pretty dark path to traverse.
Honestly, I really don't consider eating dog to be any worse than eating pig. The only reason we usually do is because we are culturally attached to dogs.
I know you are trying to get a reaction out of me. But I don't consider that to be more immoral than eating other animals. After all, pigs and cows are roughly as intelligent as dogs, with similar capacities for suffering. At least you would be consistent.
Well I'm glad you've given up on making bad faith arguments and realized you don't have any good ones. At least everyone who reads this can see how foolish you look.
First, i was just kidding, but on a serious note, Im sorry if this offends you in anyway, but i eat animals and i dont feel any remorse about it. I dont have any excuses cause i dont believe its a bad thing.
Eating animals is wrong for a number of reasons, mostly environmental.
But I'm sure as hell not going to be left out if everyone else is doing it. Meat is delicious and culturally enforced. I have enough personal protests that I don't need to add this big one on top.
I do think we can and should do more to limit meat consumption, but it's politically impossible. The amount of meat we eat isn't normal or healthy. Once a week is much more reasonable.
But I bet 9 out of 10 of your nearest restaurants serve meat in most of their dishes.
Do you think we should stop speaking out language? Because that is both cultural and tradition. Just because something is based on tradition does not mean it's a bad thing.
