What Religion Do You Follow?

[Kantor]

Since we've moved on to talking about meat eating, the reasons I eat meat:

• It tastes delicious. Call me a savage, I don't care.
• It's high in protein and iron, and the latter especially is hard to find in vegetarian food.
• It can often be troublesome to find tasty vegetarian food (not that none exists).
• Eating vegetarian food is still killing living organisms, and everyone seems fine with that.
• We have worked our way to the top of the food chain by evolution, and we have the biological right to do what we like with our position.
• Animals have no real conscious thought or fear of death.
• If there's a lovely plate of roast beef lying on a large plate, not taking that beef is not going to bring the cow back to life. The same is true for raw pork fillet lying in the kitchen of a restaurant.
