797:
It’s possible two people who disagree on what we should or
should not eat can agree on some things, concerning food. The vegan argument
starts out with the essentials of survival based on the premise that we can be
exclusively plant-eaters and survive happily and healthily. From this we can
build the rest of our argument – there has been damage done (by using animals)
and that can be repaired. We can expand on the need for repair on various
levels - repair of ethics, repair of physical damage to ourselves, repair of
the planet. Each of these can be expanded upon, almost endlessly. If there’s
disagreement on any of these fundamental points then, until each fundamental
has been agreed to there is no point in expanding into detail.
