I looked at Tim’s meal. A whole-wheat wrap filled with chickpeas and lettuce. It began to make sense. He had suggested Life Alive, a vegetarian…
The Pyncheon garden is a physical representation of what is actually going on within the family itself. For some time, the Pyncheon family has allowed the seeds of bad characteristics to take root in their life.

When I read the article about Gabe, Johnny and Raymonds time in the wilderness I believed that they were completely justified in killing animals for food. I mean after all we do it everyday by the thousands so everyone who eat's meat has no say in the matter. It is definetly NOT ok to hunt animals for sport. Unless you eat the animal it is not ok.

Jay Bost begins his essay on the ethics of eating meat by introducing himself as a former vegetarian. He claims that he has given much thought about the ethics of eating meat. Bost agrees that the reasons for not eating meat are obvious and clear to him- “animals are raised and killed in cruel conditions; grain that could feed hungry people is fed to animals; the need for pasture fuels deforestation; and by eating meat, one is implicated in the killing of a sentient being.“ (Bost) However,…
stress put on the animals and the crowded conditions makes it much easier for disease to spread in the factory farms. Even if one animal becomes contaminated in a factory farm it's possible for that same animal to contaminate thousands of pounds of meat in a slaughter house.
