Even Hitler had more compassion for animals than some of you Nazi dorks.

You talk about compassion, but that makes me wander. What is wrong with being eaten after you die?

I was wandering many times about the best way to be burried, and I still consider having my body eaten to be the most natural and satisfying anwser.

@LukeAlmighty There’s nothing inherently wrong with eating someone (human or animal) after they’re already died of natural causes. But it’s a little weird.

@ew @LukeAlmighty Eating them isn’t the problem, it’s killing them, including paying for them to be killed.

@ew @LukeAlmighty Replace “animal” with “human” and test it. If you laid a trap for a human and they walked into it on their own you would be liable.

@ew @LukeAlmighty Like I said, replace “animal” with “human”. If it’s still fine when you do that, then it’s fine.

@anon00110 @LukeAlmighty @ew Plants don’t have brains or nerves. They literally lack a nervous system. Humans and non-human animals both have brains and nerves.

@anon00110 @LukeAlmighty @ew Too abstract. Be pragmatic. Maybe rocks have feelings, but you’re not a druid and you know the difference between killing a dog and eating an asparagus.

@anon00110 @LukeAlmighty @ew I don’t think morality is objective, and I have plenty of questions about it myself. All I’m saying is that within the current moral framework generally accepted by most of society, killing and eating animals is not consistent with our own ethics.
