Donʻt Kill Someone for their Cookie

Just had a thought -- well, I thought of a pretty accurate analogy for meat-eating. Listen --

You see someone who has a huge, gooey chocolate chip cookie. You want that cookie. So you kill the person who has the cookie, so you can take it from them.

Completely savage, right? Now you tell me how this is any different:

You see a cow with large muscles that you know would make a great, tender steak. You want that steak. So you kill the cow who has the muscle, so you can take it from him.

And that, my friends, is considered very acceptable. See something wrong with this??


Please think about what you are doing when you eat. More accurately, think about what you are paying someone to do for you so you can distance yourself from the situation and not have to face your victim.

Does hiring a hitman make a person any less responsible for the death of the victim? I think not.
