The 4 Ways People Rationalize Eating Meat
- duncan_bayne 11y agoI've hunted myself - a little. Shot, skinned, butchered, cooked and eaten small game. Mmmmmmmm, rabbit pie. I have never understood people who eat meat, but can't stomach the idea of killing and preparing it themselves.
- JoeAltmaier 11y agoTake it in context, its not so weird. I don't like to wash my own dishes - gross. Does that mean I should stop eating entirely? I won't build my own car either - greasy, hot and dangerous. I don't weave cloth to make my own clothes. I don't cut my own hair. I don't do my own plumbing. All of these are unpalatable for one reason or another. I guess I'll walk naked, hairy and hungry and dump on the ground.
