Their "experiencing" of life is not morally considerable.        It has no moral importance at all.              This is what I meant by you having no case, Fuckwit. While what you       wrote is true, it is trivial. It has no bearing on the ethical decision       of whether or not we *ought* to raise animals for food. It offers no       clarity or ethical guidance at all. It's a complete waste of time.              You have no case. You are not a man.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
