    The future will absolutely not look down on cultures that have to rely on animals for food. Do we look at native Americans as horrible people because they had to slaughter animals, in a controlled, and relatively well thought out manner?

    Personally I believe the most likely alternative will be bugs. Do bugs not count as an animal? Or would you say bugs shouldn’t be eaten either

      They would drive animals off cliffs. That would cause horror if they were to repeat it today yes. Just stop eating living animals it’s that simple, but if you want to eat bugs, knock yourself out.

      I think we’ll find “plagues” of species more common and end up harvesting as many as possible then so that “locust” is the primary protein source for that year.

        Its not that simple. I can see why you believe it is, and it probably helps contribute to why you have little empathy even for those who show you they physically cant.

          Why, explain, why the next time you go shopping you NEED to buy animal products?

          You talk about my lack of empathy? jokes are flowing tonight. I noticed you didn’t deny the chicken allegations ;)

              Lol replied to the wrong person. A lil.

              Anyway ignore that bit. Why do you need to buy animal products? There are alternatives.

                Soon to be alternatives, which I’m all for. I was only pointing it out that it isn’t exactly plausible for everyone, and arguing with someone who can’t is not worth their time, or yours.
