I take no delight in taking life, however, animals are here for us to eat. We've been doing it since the beginning of mankind. I don't take delight in people hunting things such as deer, but I also realize it's necessary.
In our society eating dead animals is a choice one makes mostly based on taste. There is no need to eat animals, you can choose to survive solely on plants. People eat animals because they taste good. This is killing for pleasure. Our culture, as clearly displayed in this thread, has a very nonsensical macho infatuation with killing animals that I find sad.
It's really not necessary to breed cows and pigs and chickens for food though. When it comes to feeding our population, it's really inefficient. And delicious.....
They sure do taste good. Just like my steak yesterday did. I actually prefer to eat more vegetables, but sometimes I WANT a good hamburger or a good steak. Thank goodness for those who don't have a problem killing animals, and do it so I can buy the meat in the store. I could kill an animal if it was a survival thing, but fortunately I don't have to.
Used that film already. Lol
You're making an artificial distinction separating yourself from the killing. The animal would not be raised and killed without your financial support. It's the distinction most people make and I understand it, I just wish our culture celebrated preserving life as opposed to taking it.
Whatever it takes for me to not have to kill it and it be available on that foam tray at the store.
Damn straight.
