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

@alex
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.

@alex @LukeAlmighty what about accidental deaths? is it ethical to eat an animal after luring it with food across a pitfall trap?

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

@alex @LukeAlmighty they fell to their own death though. what if you had an animal do it? that's the natural process of nature.

@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.

@alex @LukeAlmighty no because that depends, it doesn't need to be a trap, traps just have extremely high accident rates. people die in sporting competitions, sometimes they die. if we make a slide that animals love to use, but one every 10,000 uses an animal has an accident and dies is it okay to eat?

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

@alex @LukeAlmighty so you'd be okay if we made like a planet filled with slides and ate the animals that accidentally slipped off?
