Allen3 FYI here is one religious organisation s viewpoint on how animals should be treated This is from the Catechism of the Catholic Church I hope this link works Look near bottom of page re 7th Commandment It is the Church s view of our responsibilities towards animals What makes it noteworthy is that it actually represents the views and approach of billions of people unbeknownst to themselves who somehow get through life treating animals in amaner consistent with this belief system without feeling any guilt whatsoever for believeing that animals have nothing but the right to be tasty They probably never even knew a written position existsed This verifiable link is but one source that exists other religious organisations too issue clearly enunciate viewpoints Good luck getting them convincing vegan bunny luvin gate guarders that these types of viewpoints are entrenched widespread and valid
