I been recently having doubts about eating meat myself. Animals have feelings, and we should be more responsible on how we treat them.

-------------------- ------That reminds me of something Benjamin Franklin said in his autobiography, he went vegitarian for a piece then spent some time on a ship and watched the crew clean fish and find other little fish inside them. He said to himself, "If you eat eachother, then I don't feel bad about eating you." That's not a direct quote, but the idea's there. It was a funny moment in the book and an interesting take on it.
He said that he occasionally went back to a veggie diet for a month's time just for kicks.
Anyway, just made me think of that, I don't have strong feelings about it either way, myself.
Enjoy this random piece of info. May as well, it's free.

(Feb 25 06, 18:11)That crossed my mind as well. How animals eat each other in nature. I guess what i'm concerned about is if we are torturing the animals before we kill them. People love their pet dogs or cats, and yet what makes cows and pigs any different. I say kill them quickly rather than locking them up in a cage, like veil* veal*?
Peace =)
