Default Re: Ethics

I know that I eat beef but I had problems when I saw video of thousands of cows being buldozed into pits during the mad cow outbreak a few years back. I guess survival killings vs needless killings are the difference for me. Killing for food is fine but needless death is hard for me to take. I do agree that the mad cow slaugher was needed but It was still hard to take because the meat was not useful so it felt like needless murder.
