As much as I hate to see pain and suffering in the world, animals have no qualms about eating other animals alive.
We have the knowledge and ability to be better
But we can do so much better than that don't you think?
Animals also rape each other (and sometimes other species), kill the children of other fathers, urinate and shit wherever they want... To be logically consistent, you're also arguing that all of those things are fine for us to do too.
I said no such thing. Go pick a fight somewhere else, bud.
Unless I misinterpreted your argument, it seemed like you were justifying this practice based on the fact that other animals besides us inflict pain and suffering on other animals. If that is the core argument, then to be logically consistent, you'd have to also be ok with us doing everything else I mentioned.
