Is venison an expensive meat ?

Do you eat othr meats?

So the value of life is based on how beautiful and majestic something is? Following this to its logical conclusion, would you argue that it's morally better to kill ugly people than to kill pretty people? I find this a somewhat disturbing attitude.

My point is that, as explained above, people have become numbed to the slaughter of, for example, cows and sheep because it's so commonplace. It's completely wrong, but that's what it is, whereas I don't see how people can look at something as rare as a deer and want him or her dead and on their plate. Personally I don't see how anyone can feel that way about any other animal either, but sadly people don't seem to care about sheep, cows, pigs, chickens.

It's wrong to kill and eat any animal, but even with regards to people who do eat meat, most of them would find eating a deer disgusting.

I felt you should know that I laughed out loud at the last sentence. And how you class a deer as a 'him or her'.

Actually, I laughed at your whole post. And the one before it for that matter.

Do you think that deer are hermaphrodites?

No. It's wrong to kill and eat any animal, but I don't understand how someone can see an animal so incredibly perfect as a deer and want to murder him or her. I see cows and sheep as incredibly perfect too, but most people have become very anaesthetised to the murder of cows and sheep, whereas deer are more rare.

You've just admitted that the only reason that you don't like the idea of people eating deer is because you aren't as used to it. You can't select which animals you think people should eat based on what they look like.
And please please please don't go through life being a preachy vegetarian - you give the rest of us veggies (who are happy to just not eat meat themselves without acting like we're better than anyone else) a bad name.

That's like saying 'I'm happy not to kill anyone and not act as if I'm better than a murderer.'

And no, the reason I don't like people eating deer is because eating animals is completely immoral. I quite clearly stated I would expect even people who do eat animals would be appalled by the idea of eating deer, but that doesn't detract from the fact that eating any animal is wrong.
