    No life is without pain. We may have fundamental differences in how we view inhumanity, and while I’m sure neither of us want anything to suffer, it’s the end of life that we may disagree. Death doesn’t have to be inhumane or painful though.

      I agree no life is without pain, it’s why I think breeding just to have milk or meat is immoral and unethical. I don’t want an industrial scale level pain factory that increases global warming because I want a steak or a glass of milk.

      A life is not born just to die as a song is not begun just to end, the life itself is the beauty of nature. I don’t think a humane way of killing someone or something justifies a life trapped in a machine to be slaughtered when ripe.

      I want to make it clear I eat animal products, due to my family wanting it more than I do. I had a meatloaf today of ground beef, I don’t claim to be a moral high ground when I clearly am not.

      But I don’t think that even if the death is humane, the purpose of life is not be a product to be sold, for humans, cattle, pigs, dogs, cats, horses, fish, bears, etc. I would object if humans were in the same placement.

        If you just let a cow do what it does all day it’d be the same.life as in most dairy farms. Graze chew cud get milked.
