   Meaningless.  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.
