[quote=Magic Magnum] That's a planned/purposeful service though. Most wild animals did not evolve to serve humans.They may indirectly (or directly by human means) end up being a service (ex: Hunted Deer = food, Dragonflys = eats Mosquito's) but it wasn't their made or designed purpose to be a service to us.[/quote] Does it matter how domination came to be? Humans dominate the globe. It's ours. We'll do with it as we please; we'll be nice to animals when it's convenient (that's why we're all about saving the spotted owls, and care less for all those endangered fungi), and we'll eat them when we're hungry. Facts of life. If the only counter-argument is 'food will taste bad if you're mean to your food,' that only reinforces this point. It's not true, btw. 'Kobe beef' is a marketing myth; cows don't taste better when they're slaughtered happy. They're machines which convert grass into protein, and we're machines that convert protein into poop. Apply feelings to the process in whatever manner best suits your ideology, then cook to medium-rare and enjoy.
