>>The right balance is slaughtered at around 90 to 150 days old Will we as an enlightened species ever realize that killing and eating a tender young life of another species is a morally reprehensible act! Just because we happened to be chanced into an evolutionary advantage over other species does not mean we can exalt and relish in our cruel and inhumane attitude towards the defenseless Downvotes welcome!

How long must the animal live in captivity until you would deem its slaughter morally acceptable?

  And what's your answer to that question for a child you've bred for organ harvest? You're assuming anyone would grant the priors of your scenario. You just wouldn't breed and farm the animal into existence in the first place.

Downvoted! I do presume eating a young carrot possesses the same moral reprehensions?

  I don't have any qualm with eating animals but that was still stupid to read.

You're not wrong but it's worth considering that life wouldn't exist otherwise. The choices are not kill or let live, the choices are kill or do not breed at all. They breed these animals specifically to kill them.

  You're reasoning isn't sound here. Same logic can be applied to other things: breeding dogs to dog fight, breeding humans for organ harvest, etc. And presumably you wouldn't think those justify things. I would also ask you to consider if you'd like to be born as a creature that will be mutilated, abused and ultimately painfully killed and if you would consider that preferable to never existing.

    I would encourage you to read the first three words of my comment again. You're attacking a strawman.

That exact sentence jumped out at me too. It's amazing how blasé we can be about such, once red-pilled, obvious annihilation.
