They have feelings too...
Unlike many other animals who kill for their food, humans can survive on a completely plant based diet. We’re not living in the dark ages anymore. Our understanding has evolved and in the process we have come to learn that eating animals is no longer the necessity we once believed it to be. Research has proven that plants contain all the vitamins and nutrients that the human body needs to thrive.
The animals we slaughter for food are extremely intelligent and sensitive creatures, and the way in which we treat them, regardless of whether the meat is factory farmed, free range or organic, is abhorrently cruel. From stealing their babies from them at birth to keeping them locked in confinement and denying them their natural behaviors, our actions cause animals immense emotional pain and suffering.

I'm Buddhism.In Buddhism, however, the views on vegetarianism vary between different schools of thought. According to Theravada, the Buddha allowed his monks to eat pork, chicken and fish if the monk was aware that the animal was not killed on their behalf.

We have been doing it since the dawn of man. There is nothing wrong with it. Humans are omnivores. Flesh is part of our diet. If you want to be a caterpillar, great. Ill have my big juicy steak.

I don't need to read what I have already read in the past...It's a poor justification in my opinion, plants are conscious beings and have feelings...Just ask any tree and I say tree because they will be the first to communicate with you if you are willing to listen...

Just eat minerals then. Never heard any say they have feelings. But @Castle-Yankee54 might object to this.

I love trees..I know that.They can feel pain,and have emotions, such as fear. Trees like to stand close together and cuddle. They love company and like to take things slow,are u an environmentalist?
