I think that's exactly what it is; an emotional force or appeal.

BTW, as far as the argument goes about meat being murder, what about pulling a carrot out of the ground where it has been "living", skinning it alive, chopping it up, alive, and then either boiling it or consuming it in your latest salad? I think that argument is moot since everything on earth that grows is "alive", or it wouldn't grow.
