The act of eating is a service.

[Tenet Nosce]

What was said is that killing an animal is murder. Thus if I were to kill an animal and eat it that makes me a murderer. Or is there a logical step I am missing?

You are choosing to make a deduction, based on what was said. That is your choice and you can conclude whatever you wish.

The point is that no line was crossed. No disrespectful words were said.

If you perceive them as such, that is because of your own conclusions and deductions, which only you are responsible for.

Your conclusions about what the other person meant, may or may not be accurate. That's irrelevant. What's relevant is that, in any discussion of a volatile topic, we must have specific rules of conduct, in order to discuss the topic.

Oh, I see. So the sponsoring thought behind a post is irrelevant, the only thing that counts is the actual words which end up printed in the thread. Thanks for clarifying!

Mods- Can you confirm/deny this?
