Oh wow. I just now noticed the word faked.

It's not fake. Believe it or not, I truly do care about being careful to not hurt anyone's feelings. But it's rather difficult, to have a strong conviction about something that others disagree with. Vegetarians don't even have to say anything, and they get accused of being 'judgmental' when the meat-eaters take offense and get defensive.
I apologize if I inadvertently offended anyone. But I won't apologize for my convictions.
