What sort of suffering do you think it inflicts to the point that you feel the animals' lives are not worth living to the animals? Explain in detail which livestock lives you feel are not worth living for the animals and why. Don't just say "suffering" but explain what the suffering is from. >It >is not justifiable to inflict so much suffering just so that we can >enjoy the taste of their flesh. As yet you have no argument whatsoever. On top of having no argument until you produce examples of the types of suffering you're referring to, you also have yet to appreciate when life is good for any animals other than grass raised beef, and you can't decide whether you should be opposed to it or not. Also grass raised dairy certainly seems like it should provide lives of positive value not only for the cattle themselves, but also all the wildlife that benefits from the environment. I believe it's safe to say that wildlife benefit more from grass raised cattle farming than they do from soybean farming and rice farming. |
