LOL, you think farm animals have such good lives that it's a blessing to them to keep them around for several extra years? Or are you suggesting that we release our cattle into the forests, which we'll then scour several years later for dead animals to eat? BTW, most wild animals tend to die pretty quickly from disease or predation or starvation when we don't cull their populations.

if it has already died old age or some other non human cause. then it is okay to eat.

Have you ever seen a wheat thresher in action? They're all over the place here in Iowa. It's not a pleasant sight if you think that cutting down a living wheat stalk is tantamount to murder. I asked Professor Granger, who's with the Landover Christian University Agricultural Extension program, and he told me that each loaf of bread requires the deaths of around 2,500 plants.
I thought you were serious about your criticisms, but now I see you're just a comedian playing us for laughs. Well, we have senses of humor, too. Ha ha.
