Most noteworthy for me is the fact that more Americans think that porn (52%) and homosexuality (39%) are wrong than spanking children (23%) and being ultra wealthy (18%).

They just did.

Eating meat = a neutral action that has no moral dilemma.

How we produce meat products = a large and complex question that does pose an ethical/moral dilemma centered around methods of production.

How is that so hard to understand?

    Because something is 'natural' does not mean that its moral.

    Never said it was moral. I said it was specifically amoral, as in "has nothing to do with your arbitrary sense of morality". Try reading again.

    I have trouble understanding how it could be amoral. Every time you eat meat you are making the choice to contribute to crimes than the holocaust? Who, without your contribution, would have a reduced capacity to commit suffering.
