You don't think it's immoral to kill animals unnecessarily?  If it could be 
proven that certain vegetatian diet killed many less, you wouldn't be in 
favor of it?  You do have choices of what to eat.  You can get by without 
eating beef you know.

It's wrong to kill them (or better not to kill them) if one can get by on a 
different diet.  Why not try to kill less.  Acknowledging that some deaths 
are unavoidable with modern life does not mean that one cant attempt to 
minimize this.

Any possibility of cutting and pasting this?  I have a rigid policy on "no
