> The one exception was vegetarianism: Ethicists were both more likely to say that it was immoral to eat meat, and more likely to be vegetarians themselves. Being less complicit in something that: - causes immense, horrific suffering; - has traditionally been, and still largely is, considered completely normal; - requires some personal sacrifice to forego; - happens because, and to the extent that, ordinary people continue to demand it seems like a pretty big win to me, and a good argument that philosophical contemplation of ethical issues can be worthwhile. (None of this implies that bioethics as a field is producing any value on net. Personally I'm unimpressed by what I've seen of it.)
