I believe that as conscious entities we have the power to choose the ethical “axioms” we use to guide our decisions. Under the axioms I’ve chosen I can “prove” (in a surprisingly formal sense) the claim “it is ethically okay to consume animals that have been treated humanely”. That being said, it would only take a slight modification to one of my axioms to successfully argue the opposite. I’d be very interested to hear how you use your axioms to argue the opposite. I’m happy to share mine but don’t want to taint your thought process before you’ve had time to fully consider the problem.
