How do you know what they think about it? And what difference would their opinion make?
By the way, no one has yet made the case for not cutting your lawn. When do we get to "Grass has feelings, too, and it deeply resents being victimized, etc.?"
I hope you eat only organic veggies.
Earthworms and other soil life, including bacteria, have no chance against the plow, disc, harrow, and acid treated fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides as the fields are prepare to grow.......vegetables!
The point is that man is less 'cruel' about killing animals than animals themselves. You can hardly impute immorality to animals killing other animals.
So if one isn't conscious of it being put to death isn't immoral? Don't we put criminals to sleep before the lethal drugs are injected?
In the worm's case I'm talking about feeling pain, not being aware of the exact cause of it.
Animals are a bigger part of our livelihood than just food. We use almost every part for some productive purpose, from leather to medicines.
How far are you willing to take this argument? To the jungles of the world where people subsist on the critters they can kill and eat? And where do you draw the line between being fully aware that they are being killed and the 'stimulus' of just feeling some pain?
Are you sure about that? Not only is Asia particularly famous for dog recipes, as well as cat and rat, but apparently Canada has a taste for Dog.
Dog meat legal, health inspector says - Canada - CBC News
I was repeating a claim made by KitKatMatt. It's irrelevant to the discussion, so I didn't want to run down that path.
Everyone knows that some people eat dog.
Also, I am not up to date on the hunting regulations of seals, but AFAIK killing a mother who has offspring still dependent on her is poaching. Which is greatly inhumane.
And also, it's not a 'hunt'. The seal pups have no chance of getting away.
You have made this point twice now, why does that matter? Why are ineffective methods of killing wild animals more palatable if the killing is the issue?
This time, I was describing the content of the video and not really making a point. Please quote where I made the point the first time because I don't remember what it was in reference to.
In nature the prey always has a fighting chance of getting away which is not the case in a slaughterhouse.
No thanks.Please watch this video:
Here you go:
Man is probably less brutal than nature regarding killing of critters.
No thanks.
I freed myself from religion, so as not to end up following cults, like Hinduisms or this Buddhism schtuff. You have no idea how sick and tired I am of people wanting other people to follow their ethics and moralities, because they oh so high level, compared to ehm who knows how to say this politly.
I am a human. I am a predator. I own fur, my girl owns fur, we slaughter, we eat meat - period.
