"It's fine by me; it negates everything you've said about compassion for others etc. though."

--So, it's impossible for someone who eats meat to be genuinely compassionate toward others? Fascinating. I always get a bit amused by folks with these attitudes, who seem to think that the plants they sustain themselves on didn't have to die in order for them to live. All life is sustained at the expense and execution of other life.

Sorry for the thread drift.
