There is no fundamental difference between man and animals in their ability to feel pleasure and pain, happiness, and misery.

The moral sense perhaps affords the best and highest distinction between man and the lower animals.

A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite. And to act so is immoral.
