I love animals but I also love meat. It was the way I was raised, we have meat with almost every meal. It's part of the food chain, if we didn't eat the meat the world would be over run with cows, pigs, chickens and things...okay so that argument is kind of lame but hey.
I also look at eating meat as helping the economy. Growing up in Alberta there are a lot of farms and ranchers, who make their money from people buying the beef or the pork or the poultry that they raise. If people didn't buy what they had to sell, they couldn't survive, and considering that the cattle industry provides 30billion dollars a year to the Alberta economy, there seems to be a lot of people who agree with me.
