In regards to eating meat

[Monica]

We've had this discussion many times.

Yes we have, and I have no interest in resurrecting it again.

I'm not saying we allow ourselves whatever the law will allow. That's silly. There is no right or wrong, there are only consequences.

This seems to contradict what you said earlier:

I don't personally. It is against the law. Just like I don't shoot deer at night with a spotlight. Again, against the law. If eating meat were against the law, I wouldn't eat it.

To me, this seems to convey that your decisions are based on what is legal or illegal.

I equate the following as "looking down on others":

What's the point of a discussion forum, then, if we can't express our views? How is expressing our views "looking down on others"?

Since you think it's ok to let a person kill a child, then am I "looking down on you" if I voice my opinion that it's not ok?

Sorry, but I am again confused by your words.

By the way, you are the only, Only, member of bring4th that raises my blood pressure.

I'm not to blame for your high blood pressure, Monkey.

What you're really saying is that you don't like my views. What's ironic is that I have intentionally refrained from answering any of your posts for many months, out of respect for you and the fact that we disagree so strongly. I'm sorry I can't do more than that. I cannot be expected to never share my views. I actually didn't post anything for 2 whole months, and even now, I post in only about 3 threads. Yet I raise your blood pressure?

You speak of acceptance a lot. You accept a murderer killing a child. But you cannot accept other people have a difference of opinion?

You say I am 'STS' if I stop the murderer. And now you say Diana and I are "looking down on others" if we want to stop the murder of animals?

They are the same. If you wouldn't even stop someone from killing a human child, then of course you would disagree with us trying to stop the killing of animals.

It is as though meat eating should be a "sin" that we should all feel guilty for.

I can understand why someone who thinks allowing a murderer to kill a child, might feel that way.

Your views are very strange to me, Monkey.
