Kuroko-chan said: Yeah, they are, but the big difference is that plants can't feel pain, unlike animals do. But you eat plants too. At least we resume just at eating vegetable things, you eat both plants and animals. And btw, an apple for example, is not a living being. An apple is just the ''seed'' of the tree, so the tree is the living being. Eating an apple or any other fruit or vegetable *except cabage and another few ones* are not actually living beings. The fruits and vegetables that trees and plants produce don't have a life and can't feel pain. Before trying to say something, try to think what you wanna say, because if you don't, you'll just look like a fool. When I said 'plants' I mean trees and the like. But it can't be helped that you interpreted it as that since the topic here is eating cats/dogs. |

The fruits and vegetables that trees and plants produce don't have a life and can't feel pain. This part of your argument is flawed. An apple that is not separated from the tree is composed of living cells. Any part of the tree that's composed of living cells is obviously living. I'm ok with the rest of your argument though, plants indeed don't feel pain. |

| I can't help but think of being against the idea of people eating dogs while eating meat as hypocritical. If you're vegan or vegetarian sure, understandable but if you're not then being logical isn't one of your virtues. I hope to be vegetarian one day. |

Kuroko-chan said: xoO_Jerry_Oox said: by any chance are you a vegan? I am fine with eating animals and viewing animals as source of food is very normal the lions and wolves in the wild certainly do not consider their preys as fellow animals I'm not vegan, but vegetarian, so I don't eat animals corpses. If you view that as a normal thing, it doesn't necasarry mean that all of us view it as normal. Not all humans view some things in the same way, so don't consider yourself in the center of everything. Yeah, but we humans have morals and we can produce our own food, the carnivore animals don't have what we do, so for them is normal to do those things. They don't even have morals to begin with, or don't have a view of what's good an bad. Every creature view the world in a different way. We all are equal, but we are not the same. I do not consider living creatures to be equal topic-wise I do not consider dogs and cats as pets but domestic animals there is no way a non human animal's life would be valued as much as a human's as among people there is inequality too or otherwise there wouldn't be poverty famine wars ETC if I am asked to save only one person from a fire one is a child and one is an adult I will surely save the child inequality is a fact and viewing people and other animals/plants as equal is being idealistic |

Nek0 said: This topic has been locked and is no longer available for discussion. Explains why I'm able to reply. Personally, It won't matter what your feelings are for animals as a vegetarian. Meet a Lion or Tiger, they won't hesitate to eat you. Plus this little tid bit of info: "The ancestor of most of the domestic cows, the Auroch (Bos primigenus) was extinct by 1627." |
| The Only enemy you should be concerned with is yourself, no one can be a worse threat to you than yourself. You say you have no courage? If you don't let me treat you like a carpet, then you just proved you do have courage. Success without failure is not something to be happy about. Even a little failure can strength your resolve to do better. Without failure, overconfidence becomes our downfall. |
| No...dogs and cats are pets they are not food like pigs and cows...i prefer eating those people that hunt dogs and cats then eat them than eat cats and dogs |
 |
| I might eat pussy but not a cat. Won't eat dog either. Nor would I eat a dolphin or wale or elephant. |
| Honestly it isnt something i see myself doing but i dont necessarily think its wrong, some people just dont see them as other people do if that makes sense XDD |
| I'd eat my boots before I even contemplated the idea if I was hungry.... |
| I mean people eat Rabbit and we find that cuddly and cute and is a house hold pet and lets face it that is the barrier to weather or not we want to eat it is most of the time "Is this Fido?". Ultimately they are all animals and they all have the same levels of fear etc when they get killed, don't get me wrong i am not going to go rush out and eat a cat off the street but i don't really care all that much what other countries consider food and i'd probably try it if its on a plate and docent look like a dog because that's kinda the thing... Does it look like said animal when its food? Nope? Okay, I'm going to eat the hell out of it... |
