Bruce Ji, I oppose any short of sacrifices. I think it's human ego to control, dominate, kill others and feel superior. I don't know what kind of people feel proud by chopping throat of a helpless animal. People have to eat meat, yes but again people have to drink and smoke too. It's not something we can't live without. The meatless world is almost impossible (may be someday, after a century) but there should be more vegetarian so we can cut down the killing of animals. We harvest animals for food so I don't think the food pyramid is going to collapse. Having many choices and alternatives about diets, we should weight lives more than bloody meat.
