Response to "What Can Change the Culture?" by Siearra Papuga

In this post, I will be responding to Siearra Papuga's post, entitled "What Can Change the Culture?"

I completely agree with your post. People can say that it is wrong to cause suffering to sentient nonhuman animals, but most of them will continue to eat meat if they already do. I agree with you that this is because meat-eating is a huge part of our culture. Before we had found other ways to get the protein that meat provides us with, like protein supplements, meat-eating was a lot more justifiable. People used to eat meat because it was necessary for their survival. Now, it is no longer necessary for survival. However, people are always resistant to change. People have come to love the taste of meat, and are reluctant to let that go. Many others just do not have the will power to stop now. I agree with you that eventually the culture would start to change if the inhumane treatment of nonhuman animals was broadcast to the public regularly. Personally, I think this is a good idea.
