| Plants have a nervous system. Why else would a sensitive plant react to something when it's touched. It's the fact that since we are not able to empathize or communicate with these plants that removes the morality from killing a plant. And the argument that we consume more plant life from that which was been made up of produced meat, is bogus too, because of the fact that We didn't kill the plant, the animal did, therefore, we did not partake in any sort of killing other than that of the animal. Which brings me to this conclusion. If the lives of an animal are equal to that of a plant, then don't vegetarians consume more life by eating plants, than they do an animal? An animal can feed a lot more than one plant can. Oh and plants provide oxygen for us to be able to survive. Therefore, you are not only removing their lives, but quite possibly removing the airflow from other human beings. Of course, this is only hypothetical.
