Default Descartes lives on through you.

To some people eating animals is viewed as a completely immoral act....To other people eating animals is viewed as something completely natural. Animals are a lower species, so their needs are of no real consequence. Man is smarter and can easily turn animals into food, so therefore he might as well enjoy it. If a few billion animals suffer every year as a result, who cares?
So what about people who view eating animals as something completely natural, not because "their needs are of no real consequence", but because we are all eventually consumed? Which are they: Lightworkers, darkworkers, or hypocrites (since those are apparently the only options)?

As much as like to think that our embalming chemicals and our sturdy, expensive coffins will forever shield us from being consumed (by something as "lowly" as worms, no less), we are part of the circle of consumption.

So tell me; I'm waiting with baited breath to find out which I am.
