I think it's morally neutral to ask why we kill animals. Do you kill the animals you eat?

[-] Skoobie@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I agree that question is morally neutral. And not yet, I don't, but that is the long term goal. I've got the land I would need and am working on fencing. In the interim, I have switched to meat raised and butchered by hand.

By your definition, are you morally evil, trying to become neutral?

[-] Skoobie@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Hmmm, I hadn't considered it in those particular terms, previously. I would definitely say my actions are less moral than they would be if I was doing the raising and butchering myself. Evil feels harsh but if we are using clear cut terms like good, neutral and evil, then I have to put my current actions in the evil column. And since my entire argument is based on a moral middle ground, I would say yes. I am attempting to move into morally neutral territory.
