Lack of humanity ...

The animals that we routinely and apathetically exploit and kill, have their own interest in living, they value their own lives. They don't want to die. Yet we choose to ignore this fact, we continue to eat them, eat their secretions, wear their skins, and use them. Despite knowing that we do not need to eat animals or their secretions in order to live and be healthy, we continue to frivolously use and consume animals.

Jeremy Bentham once said that "The question is not can they reason, nor can they talk? But rather, can they suffer?"
A fair enough question for a person to ask during his time, but it's not by itself morally valid anymore, because we now know that animals do reason, they do solve problems, puzzles and exhibit intentional behaviours.
Not only should all sensitive beings be granted moral consideration, but all sentient beings should be granted equal moral consideration. Meaning that every sentient being, be they human or non human, has the inherent moral right not to be treated as property, not to be exploited, tormented or murdered. The animals that we deny these basic inherent rights to, should not be greedily bred, produced for our frivolous purposes, and perceived only as replaceable resources.
Considering that it is absolutely unnecessary for us to eat animals and their secretions for our health and survival, there is no argument against veganism that you put forth that carries any moral weight.
If you believe that it's morally wrong to cause unnecessary suffering, harm and death on animals for our pleasure or convenience (meaning tastebuds and laziness), then your only moral and logical response to that belief is veganism.
If you eat animals, and dairy, eggs etc then you are absolutely inflicting unnecessary suffering, harm and death on animals. If you are a vegetarian, continuing to eat dairy and egg products, you are inflicting unnecessary suffering, harm and death on animals. Just as I did before going vegan.
It's almost 2017, we need to start making all animal use, abuse and murder history.
We need to evolve morally, for all sentient beings and the earth on which we depend.
