Vegetarianism is a somewhat complicated subject imo. If you think animals get killed because you eat meat, then it makes sense to stop eating meat. But animals get killed in agriculture too. Does that mean you should stop eating vegetables and start growing your own stuff in your backyard without killing any insects in the process? It gets complicated when you analyze this too much because species are inter-dependent. Sometimes X has to die for Y to live. Reflect on the food cycle: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_web. This is just the way things are in nature. It is best to eat moderately and stop obsessing over what you eat.
