You raise some good points but then stop, for there is far more to farming then you posted here, and there are many types. However I doubt you see this or you would have posted it. Also your comment on the status of animals and humans is wrong. I as well as millions of others agree with what the Holy Bible says on animals. This is my stand with animals.
Perhaps you should look into it if you can bring yourself to see another viewpoint.
However living in a hut in the woods and eating berries and bark is not a unreasonable thing people still do this all over the world. Matter of fact it is one of my comments when I see people like yourself. Id this is the way you think then go exist like that. Or do you feel it is unreasonable for it is too much of a sacrifice to let go of your worldly existence to be what you claim.
However back to your saddle. The Lycra cover on your gel seat if memory serves me correct was made by DuPont. If you know anything of DuPont then I question your reasoning in buying and owning a lycra covered saddle.
There is so much conflict in the world already. I dont want to add to it by arguing about what people base their values on. This will not get us any closer to peace and it definately wont change anyone's mind. Having made that qualification I will make two points;
1. I never knew that dupont had anything to do with bikes and I do find this troubling.
2. Humans need to be parasites on the earth for mere survival. Every single thing we do effects our ecological footprint. I believe I do more than most by not driving a car and not eating meat. Both of these have huge ramifications in terms of environmental impact. However, I certainly am not perfect. As your Bible says, He without sin, shall cast the first stone.
