    That's OK, just means more terror filled tasty proteins for us
unrepentant carnivores. My ancestors didn't spend millions of years clawing
their way to the top of the food chain so I could feel guilty and eat Tofu.
    Although I still maintain that you should not be allowed to graduate
from college until you have killed and eaten something with your bare hands.
If you're going to be a carnivore, be an aware and responsible carnivore.
Pass me another slice of Manatee, will you?

>That is the main reason why I became a vegetarian. I couldn't handle the
concept of eating an animal's suffering. The days of looking into an
animal's eyes as you slit its throat are long, long gone. Modern
slaughtering techniques, no matter how humane they claim to be, cause
adrenaline to be released into the meat. Perhaps this is why meat eaters, on
average, tend to be more aggressive than vegetarians? Modern veal raising is
a crime against the life force, IMO, and the treatment of battery hens for
egg production is purely disgusting (although I am ashamed to admit that I
do eat grocery store eggs, because i can't afford the free-range ones). I
might actually try a piece of meat from an animal that Phlip has slaughtered
though, because I have faith that she'd do it with minimal suffering
involved to the animal. BTW, I have heard that in Vietnam, they terrorize
and beat dogs so that the hormones can tenderize the meat before slaughter.
What a sick planet, that we are forced to survive by eating the suffering of
lower species. I'm sure I will get flamed hard for this post, but my
mundanely pagan heart won't back down from this opinion.
