Okay so hear me out. Eating meat is a selfish action.
Now before anyone @'s me I can't force you not to eat meat, you can eat whatever you like, but I wish more people would recognise that eating meat is indeed selfish.
If you disgaree with this please explain to me how eating something which causes the death and suffering of another living creatures just to please the taste-buds of a human is not selfish? It is not a necessity, it is not needed to survive. Humans are very capable of living happy and healthy lives without meat, people choose to eat meat because they like it not because they need it.
As I said before I'm not forcing anyone to stop eating meat, I'm just saying I wish more people would be upfront and admit that it is selfish rather than try to make excuses for it. If you like the taste of it, if it fills you up, if it gives you protein etc. then good for you, but that doesn't mean it isn't selfish.
Thoughts?
