The Perils of Factory Farming

Jorg and I are vegetarians, at least Jorg is, I do eat fish and only gave up meat entirely a short time ago. However, we don't proselytize and believe it is up to one's own individual conscience whether you eat meat or not. Consequently, we rarely mention the fact, other than in passing references to the likelihood that our farm animals will live out their lives happily eating us out of house and home! But I would like to draw our reader's attention to the link, with the caution to read it carefully, as it is not an opinion piece against meat eating per se, but against the methods that produce that meat. I leave it to you, the reader, to form your own opinion of the validity of his argument.
