          Rabbit is actually really testy when prepared well.

          Rabbit is more food than horse because you can’t ride a rabbit.

      Rabbit should be right of horse. Goat and sheep the most right; there is no culture nor religion that bans their consumption. They are that important to human survival.

        Yeah, horses are definitely pets and not food in most of the modern world. Rabbits are hard to place. They just don’t come up very often anymore as either food or pets.

      If needed I would eat every single one of them and not feel at all bad about it… Also why is the rabbit there? Rabbit stew is good.

      And some cultures eat dog, and others worship cows.

      Why is your culture correct?

            No, there’s usually cultural and/or historic reasons for why the line is drawn where it is

              And we don’t live in those times anymore. Why should we do what a culture tells us to do? Just because it’s culture and/or tradition? That’s a pretty dark path to traverse.

                  Honestly, I really don’t consider eating dog to be any worse than eating pig. The only reason we usually do is because we are culturally attached to dogs.

                  I know you are trying to get a reaction out of me. But I don’t consider that to be more immoral than eating other animals. After all, pigs and cows are roughly as intelligent as dogs, with similar capacities for suffering. At least you would be consistent.

                  Well I’m glad you’ve given up on making bad faith arguments and realized you don’t have any good ones. At least everyone who reads this can see how foolish you look.

                Do you think we should stop speaking out language? Because that is both cultural and tradition. Just because something is based on tradition does not mean it’s a bad thing.
