Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

We need to wait till God tells us If this is right. until then , enjoy your meat! I suppose If we have not been punished after so many years of slaughtering animals then it must be ethical and right! Thats my opinion.

I have rescued many little cats from the streets that were so little I had to feed them from special bottle with special formula and I even had to help them to shit! If I find a cockroach or some fly in my house I don't kill it. I take outside. But I EAT MEAT every day. If I called myself Animal Lover because I don't do the killing myself I would be a HYPOCRITE! I was watching the other day on Discovery channel on the program "How is Made" about how chickens are made. You could have seen 1000s of little chicks that just hatched passing from conveyor belts and pushed right and left into packages and then they would be sent to some farm and would be all slaughtered within 37 days or somehting like that. Because you don't do the slaughtering yourself doesn't make you innocent. Because you eat some animals and you don't eat others it doesn't make you innocent. Thats just a culture thing. In another country they could love cows and eat dogs. SAME THING! So if you are not a Vegetarian then don't accuse others because that makes a HYPOCRITE!!


Sotos,
In that case Sotos, why rescue kittens from the streets? and be accused of hypocrisy. What's the point of it all then wasting money on animal welfare?

Actually, I don't agree with OP. I am an animal lover - I've rescued countless dogs and cats over the years and currently have 6 dogs at home as pets. I love them dearly but I do eat meat. I don't see how being a meat eater means you cannot love animals?



Please show us where you found that nugget of deduction?

I don't think OP or anybody else, said anything of the sort!


Hmmmm, lets see all knowing oracle - where in my post does it say that anyone said that???? I said I (Personally) did not see how....... - I never attributed it as a quote to anyone.

I also stated I don't agree with OP. Plain and simple. What didn't you understand in that statement so I can explain in words of one syllable or less.

Oooohhhh I see :idea: You were telling yourself eating meat and loving animals can go hand-in-hand after questioning yourself that it might not ....
All clear :D

.... and just that you sweepingly don't agree with OP! .... fine, no loss in reputation there methinks :lol:

Whatever = "You got me - I can't think of a retort".

OK?
