We are evolving, but accusing people of being selfish because they eat meat they are designed to, and therefore not on the same moral pedestal as yourself is not in keeping with the general tone of the thread.

Not at all designed to start a fight and accusatory without reason. Questions were asked, I gave my answeres; If questions such as 'eating children' are posed, don't expect truly sensible responses.
