He has claimed his position is the default position, and that he will eat meat until somebody can demonstrate why it is immoral to do so (although I don't think he was clear about whether he would stop doing so if somebody could demonstrate it -- that could be an important question to ask first. If you ask that question, and he dodges it, then he can be banned.).RedAppleGP wrote:Alrighty OP, I'll attempt to reason with you. What rational, reasonable explanation do you have for eating animals? Surely, just because they may taste good, is not any reason to eat them, morally speaking. Is it due to any beliefs/culture? Do you have a health need to consume the stuff? Do you live in an area where eating meat is the only go to (like an area with many droughts)? Please, anything other than "it tastes good". I am giving you the benefit of the doubt, and saying that you're not a troll, and you legitimately only eat meat because of the flavor. Please, I really wanna know, and I'm sure some other people here would also like to know.
He's asking for an argument to show why it is immoral. He didn't necessarily claim it was moral, he just (in his mind -- I'm guessing here) rejected the claim that it was immoral and asked for a reason. In short, he basically said 'prove it'.
It sounds like he's "agnostic" about morality.
