I am incensed that (columnist) Joseph Rauch would claim that not eating meat is against human nature.

It's very simple actually -- not having to worry about heart disease, high cholesterol and blood pressure, colon cancer and adult-onset diabetes, as healthy vegetarians are less prone to such diseases.

What disturbs me other than your dehumanization of vegetarians is your claim that a cow serves only two purposes: 1) eating grass and 2) beef.
But how does one differentiate animals from pets?
Discarding Eurocentric preconceptions, a cow is a pet as much as a collie is.
Would you have just as easily slaughtered Lassie as you did Clarence?
