“God created all for us to enjoy. Why would he instill within it the sense of self with which to suffer?” Is a paraphrased response I’ve received when posing this question to a few friends.
My reponse has always been “If that’s the case, why make it appear as though it’s suffering to us?” And they usually respond with some level of “it’s a test”. Personally I think it’s just a wild set of mental loopholes they engage with to justify not feeling any guilt or reverance for the creatures they are consuming but I genuinely don’t know.
