read that article stu.... killing animals for eating or because they were in the way of a vegeterians crop seems like the same to me.....
Whether it's a veggie or Dracula driving a SUV is a DIFFERENT argument. Because SUV's pollute doesn't mean it's ok for meat production to pollute and vice versa does it?.
It's a separate argument as to whether it is desirable to kill animals to eat and ...
especially if it is right to unnaturally and unnecessarily encourage the mass production of animal meat for over consumption at the same time causing widespread pollution and...
more especially still that its ok to ANY extent because a God says it's ok and it isn't ok at the same time.
I get your point about hypocrites and
some animals being killed as a consequence of producing food for veggies, but are you

Quote from jem:
Stu it is stewardship not gluttony and if the way we process meat is so disgusting perhaps we will be held accountable. But since there is not a lot of hunting going on in Carlsbad California and I do have kids to feed I have to make choices. Hopefully you will do your best and I will do mine. It seems reasonable that sustainable yield would be the way to
P.S. what would be the lesser evil hunting animals for food or eating the ones that were created for food.
I don't disagree with you in essence, but if the processing of meat becomes -or already is - so disgusting, who will you become accountable to? Your kids...? if it should turn out that the place got badly messed up by greedy thick head farmers who want to pump livestock so full of anti-biotics, just to speed up growth and $$$'s, that your kids' health is compromised by superbug resistence, will this
accountability help then ??
Good stewardship yes, accountability yes, before it gets bad, not inhumane couldn't give a damn cause jesus said it was ok and the gov will bail me out if I mess up anyway crap, and the next generations of kids are made to pick up the tab in Carlsbad and most other places too.
