Heinz Emmenegger

Eating, we kill. The wish to be innocent is dangerous.

1. Humans are animals, too. Animals do not eat everything. They eat what agreees with them and does not destroy their own species. I am an animal as well.
2. The use can only be modified rapidly in industrial societies. The use has to serve the survival of our species. Culture is but a subsystem of nature. We all are animals and a part of evolution of which we will drop out some day.
3. Animal welfare is apparent at once, health, safery, sociality and freedom of fear are criteria for animal husbandry. For the animals’ welfare as well as for ours any form of keeping animals and of killing them as well should take account of the state of consciousness.
