While many believe that animal rights are not important, perhaps arguing that God gave us animals for food, I believe it’s important that humans recognize their place in the world. If we were meant to eat meat, we shouldn’t need to cook in order to make it safe to eat. We have a high chance of getting sick if we eat raw meat. We can only eat raw meat in places like high-end restaurants that serve things like beef tartare, and that’s only if it’s very carefully stored and prepared, which means we go out of our way to eat something that has its own life. Meat is a luxury, not a necessity.
