Looking for a counterpoint. Help.
Edited on Fri Apr-14-06 05:14 PM by brainshrub
For those that don't know, my blog features counterpoints to most of the commentary. Today I had a guest blogger talk about respecting the animals that you eat. (A rather funny, well-written article I might add.)

In any case, I can't find a good: "Respecting animals before you eat them is stupid" counterpoint. Does anyone have any ideas?

Here's the link to the article and a picture to give you an idea of what the article is about:

For example, in the aforementioned Burger King, I saw a marquee adversing BK Chicken Fries© that depicted two hens having a heated dispute over which sauce they should be eaten with.

Ignoring the fact that BK Chicken Fries© are an abomination against nature and look like fried tampons, the advertisement struck me as being extremely disrespectful. Not just to the animals - but to humans as well.

I would like to appeal to my fellow carnivores too treat our food with a bit more respect. It's bad enough that we are forced to kill animals to survive - but over-processed BK Chicken Fries© are surely a sign of the coming apocalypse.
