Law of One Religion?

Do you ever hear the excuse "the beef was dead anyway" when justifying eating meat? Like you couldn't bring them back to life.

Sure. But I think it's a lame excuse, being that all businesses operate on the principle of supply-and-demand. If people didn't buy the dead animal carcasses, they wouldn't keep artificially breeding and slaughtering the cows because there would be no one buying the meat. They kill the cows because people buy the meat, plain and simple. Cut off the demand, and the supply will disappear.
