But bears do not keep people in cages just to eat them when they
please.

There will never be enough turkeys etc. for everyone (even for those who
have a tradition of Christmas) and so far if Christmas with
that peace of meat on a plate is considered as the only real one,
there will never be peace. As I understand eating meat is not only an
ethical question on animal rights but has an effect on other
people's lives somewhere. Wouldn't the food resources of the world be
greater if they were not wasted in the production of meet where energy is lost?
Still, merry Chistmas to everyone!
Peace, love and solidarity,
