There is, to the beat of my knowledge, no difference in the methods of slaughtering for conventional and organic cattle in the EU. They are processed seperatly, but that is the only regulation i know of. Happy to be corrected if you know something else.
Some organic farm slaughter animals on their own, to ensure a humane death, so there is that i guess.
Still, this is where our moral framework differs then, as i do see it as unethical to kill any being without need. For me the knowledge that an animal had a good life isn't enough.
For one i can't guarantee that it was a good life: maybe they were mistreated without any control instance realising it. And of course we can't ask them.
I wouldn't apply that standard to humans.If a human child is murdered by somebody i would never say: It's okay that they were killed, because they were a happy child with a good life. I don't see why i should change this view just because it's a non human animal beeing killed.
Differnt to many other vegans i am fine with you having a different moral position. I still think that i am right, but it is my truth. I have to and can live with different truths that contradict each other co-existing.
So, no hate from my side. I sincerely thank you for the information you have shared here, i have learned some things and feel that i have a better grasp of the matter at hand, while still feeling validated in my previous position. Thank you.
