Do you think you might be onto a slippery slope here?

Eating animals is not a cornerstone of modern society, and none of the experience/ benefits of eating animals cannot be reproduced. Just like using lead in the gas, at some point as a society we might decide that the costs overweight the benefits.

I think we're waaaaaaay past the discussion - it's self evident that animal exploitation is a blight on the earth and on the animals, and the benefits are unclear (for 95% of the world).

So why keep going? Because "i want to"?

What would you think if people wanted to use leaded gas, or use DDT on their lawn? See the similarity?
