I have had no meat products since I have become a vegetarian. I am not a vegan but do not debate the fact that veganism is even the more moral choice of the two. It is. However, I am more and more cutting out dairy products and probably soon will go vegan. |
Ok, if you aren't vegan, but you consider it to be the more moral of two choices... why haven't you done it? And, can you fault others for having the same motivation as you have for not "doing that right thing"?
I think most people agree that animals deserve at least a minimum of moral consideration (no "unnecessary pain"), but for most it doesn't extend far beyond that. I think a more realistic goal if you want to promote animal welfare is to promote more humane/sustainable/healthy practices within the industry, rather than trying to get people to abstain all together.
