Let nature be nature. Thy Will Not Mine be Done. I am fortunate to live in a modern world where I can be healthy and survive by eating produce and by not killing or supporting the killing of animals for things I can get from plants.

Its all moot anyway because it's been long enough that even if I tried to eat a rib eye (yum) I'd just get really sick.

It is hypothetical, but not moot.
Your digestive habits were not the point of the question.

In your previous post, you equated the killing of animals with abortion:

"Animals are sentient and helpless creatures of God and they have souls. I think they deserve to live their lives just as abortion victims do."

My question sought to discover if your application of that principle was consistently absolute, situational or conditional.

What you appear to be saying (judging by what you've posted so far) is that killing animals for food is wrong (tantamount to abortion/murder) when people do it, but perfectly OK if animals do it.
