Having the Family over for Dinner?

Cows, dogs, horses, human beings,
pigs, sheep, deer, and many other
animals are all mammals.

Doesn't being in that same group makes
it seem like we are all related in some
way, maybe distant cousins?

Isn't the idea of eating others in your
group - even those extended mammal relatives
- actually cannibalism?

My feeling is that if some living being can
look you in the eye, it shouldn't be
considered as a meal.

This is another case of just because we can,
doesn't mean we should.
