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.

humans eating meat is an abberation in our evolution not the norm.

theyre not sentient. but i agree eating anything is bad.

Humans have been eating meat for at least 2.5 million years. Hardly an abberation at this point, especially since every culture in the world eats meat.

True, they hunted meat long before agricultural techniques were developed.

Is there a culture anywhere in the world that is exclusively vegetarian or vegan? Your article doesn't support that.

Of the 177 countries polled India ranked the lowest in per capita meat consumption at 7 lbs per day. Luxembourg topped the list.

I could not find any data as to whether there are any completely meat-free cultures.
