Default OT: Eating sentient beings?

New UK law:

"During a visit to Battersea Dogs and Cats Home, the Environment Secretary
said that the Government would take a significant step forwards on animal
welfare by formally recognising animals as sentient beings through a new
Animal Sentience Bill that will be introduced to Parliament tomorrow (13
May), putting animal welfare at the very heart of government policy decision
making."

If animals are to be recognised as sentient beings, shouldn't that mean
everyone must become vegetarian?


If they are sentient, not really. If they are sapient, then yes. That is
assuming the legal terms mean what the dictionary definition says and not what
the more commonly used definition is.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
