I didnt know what to put as a title, obviously. ~^

Well I just joined this site, and this is my first blog. I would appreciate comments. Whether you agree or not, and you can bring up points I might forget to mention. [:

Well. Animal abuse is a s e r i o u s problem. I was fine with eating meat until sometime today, when I really thought about it for the first time. Why do we eat meat? Maybe, hundreds of years ago, it was the only food our ancestors could find. So of course its natural for us to eat animals. If I were starving, and the only food available to me was a rabbit - I would probably eat it to keep myself alive. But I'm not starving, and many people in the world aren't starving, either.

So why do we eat meat?
Because it tastes good? So do many other kinds of food - including foods that weren't made by killing a living creature.
For the protein? Well, there are other ways of getting protein. There's protein in peanut butter.

The point is that a n i m a l s h a v e f e e l i n g s t o o . They have feelings and emotions, and we don't need to kill them just because we're hungry. And its better ( but in no way 'not bad' ) when you don't kill the animals in cruel ways. McDonalds kills their chickens in the most cruel ways possible, and since I found out, I've stopped eating their chicken. Or their beef, for that matter. The point is that I would be faster to eat a cow that I was certain had died a painless death, and didn't live in bad conditions before it died. But I would still eat something else before I ate that cow.

Personally, I think we all need to rethink our diets.
