The point is Nick, whilst humans are carnivores, and rightly so, we are also too stupid at times to realise that we don't have to kill everything to eat. And yes, that includes people who make obtuse comments like yours above. You don't have to disagree with whaling to see the basic pointlessness of killing them in huge numbers for 'food'. As a race, we now grow our own food (the only reason why there are any cows left) and for the most part the hunting and killing of huge numbers of wild prey is entirely unnecessary. If anyone disagrees with my comment, just have a look into the history of Easter Island. |
