Meat Morality Many animal rights activists claim that the act of eating meat contributes to animal cruelty. Michael Pollan would refute this claim saying that we, as humans, can and should eat animals as long as we treat them with respect while they are alive. In his article, “An Animal’s Place”, Michael Pollan addresses the moral issue of whether or not it is right to consume animals. He goes to great lengths to research this topic to find a justification to eat meat. He does a great job supporting his opinion that we should be able to eat animals, by using narratives, compare and contrasts, and citing experts that he researched.
When you live in a family who has lost its way, you don’t have a lot of choices to help your family. This family is sent to a camp called Manzanar. Manzanar is a camp for struggling families who have nowhere to go. You have poor living conditions, the food isn’t all that good, and it’s tough. Living at Manzanar was life at its toughest.
In developing this outrageous thesis, Swift provides abundant detail, projecting the costs of child rearing, estimating the portion of the population affected, and even providing specific ideas regarding the number of servings a child might provide. Swift suggests that the meat of the children of Ireland would be considered a delicacy to both the English and to Irish landowners, and would therefore be highly sought after for feasts and special occasions. Swift's arguments rationally presented support a greatly irrational proposition, and their terrible cruelty thoroughly undermines their benevolent intent. He returns to the chief proposal and lists six reasons why it should be adopted. First, it will decrease the number of dangerous Catholics.
Meanwhile messengers had been sent to Athens to inquire of the interpreters of religious concerning what should be done with the man. By the time the messengers returned the criminal had died from hunger and exposure. Euthyphro was willing to prosecute his father to cleanse himself and his family from the religious pollution caused by the murder. What is piety?” Socrates asked Euthyphro to answer.

Through the impact of war turns soldiers into animals this leads to the soldiers dehumanising one another. It brings out the darker side of humanity and shows what we are capable of doing just to survive. Back before and during the war both sides would use Propaganda to fuel rage into their soldier’s heads convincing them that their enemy were evil and should be killed with as much terror and pain they could inflict. This would lead to torturing prisoners for information and even revenge. Even though we see glimpses of empathy and humanity the reader is still engaged in how war changes, dehumanising and desensitizing the soldiers.
Swift ultimately identifies throughout the text that there is a problem of poverty and starvation in Ireland that needs to actively be dealt with. Through the persona that Swift creates, a proposal is presented to help society that includes infanticide and cannibalism. The narrator of the text supports the idea of killing babies by stating, "A very worthy person, a true lover of his country, and whose virtues I highly esteem, was lately pleased in discoursing on this matter to offer a refinement upon my scheme." The advantages that Swift includes in the text are decreasing the amount of Roman Catholics to make room for more Protestants, offering tenants assets to pay landlords, keeping the money in Ireland, benefitting parents from their children in terms of payment, caring from the men towards their “breeding stock” wife, men will be more caring toward their wives and consider them a “breeding stock” wife, and assisting in preventing abortions. Swift uses satirical humor in hopes of stimulating a response from the people of Ireland.
It is a great contradiction and absurdity that a husband and father propose the idea of cannibalism. The narrator does not want the reader to agree that the solution to overpopulation and poverty in Ireland is to eat babies; he wants the reader to see there needs to be a practical solution. Although something seems one way to the narrator, Jonathan Swift wants the reader to see it in an opposite light. Swift's opposition is indirectly presented. The author uses satire to accomplish his objective not only because he is able to conceal his true identity but also because it is the most effective way to awake the people of Ireland into seeing their own deprivation.
