This is the thing I'm trying to get across.

You can eat Meat (or be a Butcher in your Brother's case) and still have animals that you care about and love.

For me personally I could never envision myself harming any animal (I even rarely ever harm bugs or Spiders) and in a strange way I kind of see my Cat as a close family relative of mine.

But imo if you can so cold heartedly kill an animal for Religious reasons then not only is that Religion tucked up, but it shows a lack of any compassion for animals imo.

Exactly this.

I personally don't see how Meat eaters are just as evil as people that shoot Animals for Sport, but maybe I'm missing something.

I'm sure they have pet animals they care about too. They're not aliens.

So would you say if a Wife kills her Husband because he used to domestically abuse her, would you then compare her to a Serial killer? Because after all they've both took a life, even if for different reasons.

I'm doing this hypothetical scenario because I bet that most people would rightly not see it as so black and white.

And is 'sport' ok when animals die because it's nothing to do with religion?

That's seeing things in black and white.
