RE: Utilitarianism - a logic based morality
Interesting woman.
For the most part,we have treated our livestock with humanity when we slaughter...I'll modify that statement by sayn that most humans don't seek to cause pain and fear in their meat animals. of course, there will always be sickos that do intend pain and fear in animal and humans, but luckily they are few in number
For most of our history yes, but there was a recent period, which she took us past, where industrialization made slaughterhouses really horrible. Factory engineers designing animal management was not the best idea.
ohhh tell me about it. It's really quite disturbing to see how engineers became seriously disconnected from animal scientists, and didn't design facilities AT ALL with animals in mind. That is thankfully changing, and changing quickly.
