There is no "god" in this, ****wit. As far as you know
and have reason to believe, wild animals just exist,
and domestic animals are bred into existence by humans,
starting with wild animals millennia ago. There is no
*moral* reason to keep breeding livestock. Livestock
animals do not "benefit" from coming into existence,
and no animals would be deprived of anything if we
stopped breeding livestock.
