Thank You for posting!

I appreciate everything that you have said, my best friend agrees. She only eats "grass feed" (Which I believe there is no such thing) or "free range" (Again, according to the laws, there is none, this statement is false).

I do like the insight that you gave, and yes, I have heard a Jainism...something I admire a great deal. Me personally? I lived in Texas and have seen (and smelled) slaughterhouses and it turns my stomach...the amount of environmental concerns, Human Rights and weight concerns (I lost 28 lbs LOL), leads to something that is very personal and philosphical...something I appreciate as an agnostic.

Like I said, it is so refreshing to hear all sides!

Thank You!

Respectfully,
Mags
