To our vegan poster, your choice of rhetoric (calling killing animals for food, which is authorized by the Lord, "murder" and using deliberately emotionally charged language such as "corpses") IS going to antagonize a lot of people, since that rhetoric makes you sound like you're passing a rather mean-spirited moral judgment on them, and willfully ignoring Scripture you don't like (the D&C 49 citation) doesn't help.
To me, you really do sound a bit self-righteous on the subject, and that does create some antagonism. (I'd say that even if I agreed with your basic position, although I don't, being an omnivore.)
