I appreciate your passion and moral outrage, but I have to point out that your argument seems a bit short on facts. While strong emotions can drive a conversation, it's important to back them up with evidence and reasoning, which you do very well. That way, the discussion can be more constructive.

I care deeply about God's creatures, including the chickens I personally take care of and own. It's important to me that they are well-treated, and I believe it's possible to care for animals while also eating them.

Shana tova!

I agree with you on the evilness of modern factory farming. But not all meat eating is evil. All terrestrial life eats other life, or harms/kills other life through conflict and competition.

I am an animal LOVER, but IMO ethical hunting and homesteading for meat is not evil, and it’s actually one of the best ways to counter postmodern disillusionment and alienation.

I wrote a pice on the ethics of hunting: https://open.substack.com/pub/brandonmcmurtrie/p/is-hunting-wrong?r=1kxn90&utm_medium=ios
