If animals exist we ought to consider the conditions we provide them, that's it. Sure, they're tasty, but do they appreciate life more than mice? I believe even very young chickens do. That is from personal experience around both. So just being destined to be eaten makes an animal appreciate life, Of course that's not it. or what is it? Try again. I think mice are more intelligent than either chickens or cows, but not pigs. |

I don't have reason to believe mice enjoy life more than some chickens or cattle either...it depends on what their particular life is like. Then there's the ever present fact that humans can deliberately provide decent lives for chickens and cattle better than they can for any wild animals. Also, what is the average lifespan of wild mice in comparison to chickens and cattle? I feel certain that the average life span of even broiler chickens is longer than the average life span of wild mice, and cattle much more than that. So far we have no reason to favor your mice over livestock, and most likely we never will have. |

Goo - ****wit David Harrison, THE GOOBER, a colossally stupid ****wit

You're too stupid a cracker for this, Goo. |
