       Yes THEY do. You just can't allow yourself to comprehend the   
   fact any more, IF you were ever able to at all.

       It appears to be true for all sentient creatures.

       That's a different subject, and one you can't begin to   
   consider in any detail until you get more comfortable admitting   
   that some livestock do have lives of positive value. Remember   
   that up until this point you couldn't even consider that aspect   
   for humans or anything else, but if you can now consider it for   
   any creatures at all then try to get somewhere with it.....
