That's all I'm saying. I just don't think the "It isn't natural" argument holds. If you would say something like, "It isn't good", I'd happily agree. But it is natural, because we are part of nature and this is what we naturally do. |
The very term "nature" denotes that there is an unnatural. If natural means "of nature" then by definition there must be something that is not of nature, meaning man made. If you are saying we are on planet earth then we are arguing about nothing. If you are saying that factory farming is part of nature then I would hate to see what is unnatural.
I will not say it is bad. It simply is. And it is a destructive human construct. Therefore destructively unnatural.
