Having an internally consistent moral code does not make you moral, it just makes you logical. I don't care how hypocritical my own morality may be. I am satisfied with it. I can eat a hamburger and still look myself in the mirror, but not if I kicked a cat. Whether or not this makes sense doesn't particularly concern me, as the contradiction obviously isn't making me lose any sleep, and I'd rather worry over things that I don't have to convince myself to worry over.
