Not really sure what to put here…I usually put relevant excerpts, but that got this post deleted for doing that

    I didn’t realize transplants only came from killing people, your totally applicable and thoughtful analogy has me rethinking my life choices now.

    Here’s a thought experiment for you: if you were on an island, with only the vegan section of a grocery store to eat for survival, would you eat the vegan food?

      Can you explain your point a little more?

          When did I say all transplants require killing someone? I said that a heart transplant required someone with a working heart to die. Just as a lion eating meat requires another animal to die.

            Since lions aren’t moral agents (look this up if you’re unfamiliar with the term, it’s not only a vegan term) they don’t commit murder when they kill for food. Also, someone dying and donating an organ also isn’t murder.
