I have been really wondering if we should eat meat at all.
I don't think I should, so I don't. I did for most of my life, though, with short periods of vegetarianism and consciously having vegetarian days. About a year and a half ago I stopped eating meat for good, though I occasionally still eat fish. Now I consciously have plant-based days.

Poor, innocent plants, struggling from their seed case and spending their lives reaching for the light until rudely yanked out of the ground, pulled from a tree or sliced from a stalk.

Will no one weep for the turnip?
No, but they will surely weep for the fish. Fish are hooked, netted and yanked out of the same environment God created for them to freely worship him in, but then they cannot gasp for air. They suffer.
A plant is made by God to perpetuate itself through seeds and flowers, let's say, where honey bees and other insects carry their pollen to perpetuate the Kingdom Garden.
The land of the Milky Way where Orion's stars hold sway. Milk from planting, honey from planting.
What animals suffer is not what plants feel when yanked out of the ground, where God intended man and animals to consume them for food.
It makes them feel delicious when fed. It makes them feel they have experienced the fountain of life when watered. When they are talked to they respond.
Likewise, let that be how animals are kindly treated. Let them feel 'delicious' when fed, watered, appreciated, loved, not feeling they are only going there to be by a human later backstabbed.
The wanton slaughter of animals God placed where they are to be part of his church will not go unpunished.
The Book of Nehemiah, Leviticus 24, Isaiah 1, Isaiah 66, when Jesus taught of Pisces they ate the bread.
The Sheep Gate, the Fish Gate, the Horse Gate, the walls of Jerusalem were broken down and dismissed.
Jesus is of the tribe of Judah, hence the Egyptian Sphinx was created. That monument stands its ground.
The tribe of Benjamin, Genesis 49, the wolfhound, the dog, the fox, the wolves in their dens not found.
The tribe of Naphtali, the doe and her fawn, the world may think it can escape the judgments of God.
No, but they will surely weep for the fish. Fish are hooked, netted and yanked out of the same environment God created for them to freely worship him in, but then they cannot gasp for air. They suffer.

The fish I catch for my table don't gasp for air. I kill them within seconds of capture and put them on ice. But I only kill about 5% of the fish I catch. The rest are released unharmed.
Not so the lettuce that was murdered for your salad.

Sounds like me, and the fish I catch should be lucky to grace my table when I give thanks to the earth, and respect for his feeding me, but dang, can't nobody cook fish like my family, I make fish jerky that taste like heaven itself, even fish sausage at times, but the best sausage is turkey sausage. I guess I will go back to Mcdonald's 2nite, gotta have me a big mack for some reason.
I make some mustard fish sometimes, and that is pretty good but dang, give me a pit and I will make fish taste like lobster.
Seems like all I ever wanted was a place near the water with fish and that's all I need, the family sold the lake house and our back yard was the San Bernard river.
I gotta say it, if you can't walk out your back yard to catch breakfast, they is something wrong with the world.
