I was under the impression that it was owned by Christians and that was why they would not open Sunday. Factory farming is a cruel and inhumane way of raising animals that people don’t need to live. As my mate Charlie Freak says, you either love animals, or you eat them. It can’t be both.
You should check your facts. I was recently at a farm that has 20,000 hens, producing 19,000 eggs each day. This is one huge barn filled wall to wall with hens. They work really hard at making those hens very happy, because that increases their output. The fascinating thing is that they are "free range" chickens. This means that there are doors for the chickens to go outside if/when they want to. But the reality is that very few go out. They stay inside where they are constantly packed in, next to other chickens, and they appear to be perfectly happy with that. A stressed hen will not lay eggs.
I also have a cousin who is a milk producer. They bend over backwards to make sure that these cows are comfortable at all times. A stressed cow will produce less milk.
On another note: I am a tree hugger. I hug them and then cut them down to use the wood for building stuff. I'll let you in on a little secret -- they grow back!!!!! Their seeds grow on trees!

I take good care of my birds, almost as though I love them. But I'm still going to eat them. There's a middle ground.
