my bad infertile-- i didn't think you were referring to slaughtering our own meat. on that note, i agree completely, it's very impractical.
i was thinking the practicality of changing our culture to exclude animal abuse. which of course isn't practical either but as i said, neither was slavery, which was the foundation of much of our culture hundreds of years ago.
"here is where I think you cross the line from ethics to religion, because you project your consciousness onto us."
i don't see how you're drawing the conclusion that because i don't think you should support a fucked up industry i've crossed the line into religion ? this has nothing to do with metaphysics. if it's because you think i'm pushing my ideas on you, i don't think i am. we're all friends here and i'm only bringing this stuff up because i think i'm right in my opinion that it's an unethical industry, and so then we argue about it. i think this, you think that, we argue. that's it. all i can do is hope.
if a company does something you think is horrific, and all your friends give them money, how would you treat the situation differently than i have?
