It’s looking more and more as if there will come a national day of reckoning in America about whether it’s OK to eat animals. Witness yesterday’s article in the New York Times by Roger Cohen:
I’m not happy that I ate dog. But I’m happy China eats dog. It so proclaims both a particularity to be prized in a homogenizing world and its rationality. Anyone who doesn’t want China to eat dog must logically embrace pigs as pets.
Lots of muddled thinking couched in ten dollar words. But I think that the longer this topic is engaged directly, the likely more a compassionate view of the situation will prevail. (Thanks, Larry.) Link.
