But why? I don't mean that in a cheeky sense, just that I purely don't understand where you are coming from and would like to be enlightened.
We have such differing view points I don't think they could ever be reconciled but I would like to at least understand your point of view. I have no problem with the concept of things dying so I can survive, this goes on every day from the smallest to the biggest creatures; my body is constantly killing bacteria and viruses and they are living things, I eat vegetables and they are living things, every time I have a slice of bread the wheat and yeast that went into it were living things which died purely for my benefit as did the pig that formed the bacon - I have no problem in accepting any of that death on my behalf but I wouldn't want a single thing to suffer more pain in its death than it had to.
