Approximately 3 billion animals are slaughtered each year for food alone. This is done at the hands of humans. Is this morally correct for humans to do? Is it okay for us to simply slaughter others by the billions as we wish to fulfill our greedy consumer needs? Perhaps this is the price for being overly sensitive to our own kind. We want even the weakest humans to survive, and so we need to feed so many more humans than if we let the week die off. So yes, we are moral for wanting all of our species to survive, but does that also make us immoral for killing billions of others for our own sake? Here we go again with all of our contradictions!
