What a wonderful world!
All I see, forms curled!
Life is amazing!
Cows, in the glen, grazing!
Once more, once more!
To the skies we soar!
What are you doing?
Did you hear? Boing, boing!

The most brutal reality of life is that life lives upon life. Big fish eats little fish, or as in mythological symbolism, the Uroboros, the snake consuming its own tail. Tennyson's, "Nature, red in tooth and claw." There is no life without death.
Thomas Hobbes; "nasty brutish and short".

If killing for food is sin then life is a sin, since without death there is no life.

As humans we are able to care for our animals and provide them a pleasant death not offered by nature.
Every steak is sacred and is provided with care; shelter, veterinary medicine, food water, and a quick painless death.
We should be so lucky as to be able to afford a trip to "Dignitas" in Switzerland at the end.
I agree.
It is not really as pleasant as all that for our animal cousins, just google factory farming, this should not be the reality of any living thing. Your above description better suits the farm-raised animals. Factory farming is an insult to our humanity.
