I already understand humans are violent and vile creatures. Not only versus animals, but to other humans. My point is, I hate to sound pessimistic, but, that's humans.

When it comes to personal ideologies, it's simply impossible to alter them when they are so ingrained within people.

When it comes to eating meat, you are fighting a pattern of behavior that goes back since the dawn of man. This pattern of behavior is intertwined with culture, religion, and for many a personal enjoyment.

When you top all of that off with the vast amount of money being made off the slaughter of animals for consumption, you are faced with an impossible task if you plan to stop it.

It's like fossil fuel useage. That's not good for the environment, is it? Are you also protesting that?

What about illegal wars pushed by larger countries onto the smaller ones, purely done for the profit of selling arms and/or to "rebuild" the smaller country that is destroyed?

My point is humans are awful creatures and I hate the majority of what we have done to this planet. If I sat and thought on all the evilness humans inflict on this planet I literally would enter a depression I'd never exit from.

I respect your plight and fight for animals, but I feel it's about as effective as having 100 mile an hour winds blowing into your face and trying to spit.

You are riding this train, the tracks have been laid and nothing you do will alter the route you are going.

I hate it when you do that thing where you skip a line after every sentence. Paragraphs, man. Paragraphs!
