I did try being a vegetarian for a while, but I found just loved meat too much. I don't think eating meat is wrong, but I do think the way we breed and slaughter animals without them having a chance to defend themselves is.
But then, I believe that plants have just as much of a right to live as animals do, and we have to eat
something. It's selfish to eat a living thing, but we're all selfish in some way, unfortunately.
If you met a crocodile in a river, would it think twice about the pain your death would cause? I don't think so. Its first instinct would be "that's food".
I'm sorry if I'm repeating what others have said, I haven't read over the entire topic.
