    Would it be acceptable for someone calling you a murderer for eating meat, wearing leather shoes or driving petrol car?

      Maybe it’s stretching the word meaning a bit but I’d definitely be contributing to animal murdering by eating meat. The same applies if I buy new leather shoes. Driving a petrol car, otoh, the connection to animal killing is not as straightforward, but it’s harmful for the environment and hence harming wild animals as well.

      So yes, it’s not polite, but acceptable.

        🤦‍♂️ Not a religion imposing their beliefs at all.

          Indeed. Can you point any inconsistencies in that sentiment, or prove it false? If not, what’s the problem here?

            Perhaps only that you are no different to other brainwashed religious zealots who called abortion a “murder”. Go figure.

              You can’t eat meat without animal murder. It’s really that simple. Dragging your fixations on religion into it is just noise and some feeble deliberate attempt to derail the issue and somehow “prove” that you had a point.
