Louis, of course I couldn't. That one is too young and has too little meat on his bones; complete waste of time.
I think this is where we diverge; I don't think eating meat is immoral, rather, I think there is a moral dimension to eating meat. You're asking for another creature to die so you can have a tasty snack. How can that not be a moral choice? Likewise, we can all survive quite nicely without meat, and meat requires greater resources to produce. So as a meat-eater, I feel that I need to be okay with all dimenions of my choice.
You compare meat-eating with theft (twice), as though a morally wrong choice is comparable to a morally ambiguous choice like eating meat. I think this is where we part company.
