       Animals experience disappointment Goo. Almost any   
   child with a dog could tell you about it. It doesn't mean   
   that all animals can, but it does mean some of them   
   can. Sad you're not able to understand that.   
      
       One absurd "reason" you feel that life isn't worthy   
   of consideration for any animals, is because you don't   
   feel that they are capable of experiencing positive   
   emotions to the degree that their lives could be worthy   
   of consideration. But even though your prize argument   
   --that imaginary nonexistent entities can not benefit--is   
   true, there is much evidence that humans are capable   
   of experiencing positive emotions to the degree that   
   their lives are a benefit to them. And Goobernad, even   
   though you can't understand it, the same is true for   
   some animals too.
