Okay I hate to break this to you but it is quite simple. Cosmically speaking we may be morally bankrupt for eating animals, however to tell the truth I dont give a rats ass. The reason I don't eat humans is because they arent available in the supermarket, and i dont wana do life to learn how they taste. Canabalism is an out dated taboo, but this isnt the issue at hand so lets get back to it. Animals are incapable of exacting retributon (and I dont have to kill them myself), especially not in the sense that I am hurting "feelings". When I get down to it it is a case of humans I have to live with and care about, animals just taste soooo damn good. MY big point being I dont care if its right to the animals, when they can complain I will stop, when i have an perticular animal I care about I will stop, if I was to have a serious relationship with one I would stop. Short of that nothing.
Now to nitpick you mention killing infants and the retarded and to make my point clear thats not the right picture, lets talk about eating healthy capable adult humans, somehting which I would attempt if it didnt cause problems with other humans (which can bring forth retribution, see my barbaric point here).
Now mind you this isn't a troll post I didnt call you stupid I just said I dont have any incentive to care, cause even the effective arguments against omnivorism (I hope thats a word) which includes yours, are neccesarily something which require me to take an incentive in caring, one which I dont plan on taking.
