Okay, people! I GET IT. I sincerely apologize and did not realize that this had been excessively discussed in the past.

That is why I started this thread off, "This question is not meant, in anyway, to anger anyone by any means." --- I did NOT mean to offend anyone, or imply that anyone is a "horrible person." I was simply asking your opinions, as I had stated mine. A couple of you brought up some good points as to why you do eat meat. I hold nothing against ANY of you many meat eaters.
