It does really. Until an animal can carry an amount of responsibility equal to a Human, they're not our equal. They're beasts, there for us to eat and to live and work at our discretion.
Sure we gotta look after them. The Planet is an intricate ecosystem. If we upset the balance, what would we eat? And what sort of Planet would we be left with? A dull one.
But the point really is, if you don't eat Mary goose because mary goose didnt have her toenails clipped before she had her head chopped off, it really makes no difference. Mary Goose will be eaten. Being vegetarian...makes no difference. If you want to save Mary goose, youd have to stop the whole world from eating meat. And that's just downright fascism.
Food is food. If you choose not to eat meat for a dietary reason thats 100% justifiable. If you choose not to for a spiritual reason, sure I understand.
If you choose not to as some sort of fashion label or like a...you know to be part of this group of jimmy do-gooders...well no-one really cares. If you wanna eat a cow eat a cow, if you dont, dont. It's your stomach, not my stomach. It's up to you what you put in it.
All that matters is are you gonna eat it or not. If not...stfu and pass the chicken drumsticks.
