There's no way you could understand how I feel about that.
Are you really unaware that you've spent several years trying to
prevent anyone from thinking about how I do feel about it?

Lives that I consider to be overly restrictive among other things that
give them a negative value. It's different for chickens in ways that you
could never appreciate.

No, you don't, ****wit. You have never posed any kind of challenge to
us at all. Someone of your infantile intellect is no challenge at all.

I already know I'm not lying. What good would it do me to prove it to you?

I don't know what that means. You said that it's necessary to consider the
animals, I showed that it isn't.

How is that way of thinking different than a vegan, except they believe ALL
livestock have lives of negative value? It's not, it's only a matter of
degree.

Now that you mention it, you have proven yourself a
liar hundreds of times. Everyone familiar with you can
certainly agree with that...except for your little Bagoo
who lies with you, Goo. It's amazing you could get anyone
into bed to lie with you Goobs, but you saw a sucker and
successfully lured him right on in. It makes a person wonder
what you used for bait...

Every one of them is beyond your ability to meet.

So far there's only one quiz which you are rightly afraid to take.

If you ever showed anything at all, you have only shown why
advocates of the misnomer can't consider the animals. Since I
feel strongly the opposite way, what you may have shown doesn't
have the significance for me that it has for you...to the point that
I can't even tell which part(s) of your crap you think you're trying
to refer to. Try providing some example(s):

.. . .
>>>Viable fertilized eggs are already defacto chickens.

I have provided a detail, which your reaction proves confounds
and bewilders you as I knew it would, and as I correctly pointed out
when I presented it by pointing out that you can't move beyond this
point. Actually you can't even get *to* this point, and you probably
don't have any idea what I was telling you about.

LOL!!! That IS the difference, you poor bumbling clown.

The fact that there IS "a matter of degree" IS the difference.
You can't even understand the significance of things that you
yourself point out, you poor, poor, ignorant fool. It would have
to suck to be like you. It's times like this I really do feel sorry for
you, you poor mixed up mess. Obviously you were screwed up
from the start. Then the Goober got hold of you taking advantage
of your horribly challenged mental situation, and he successfuly
got you to love and respect the very person who lured you into
an even deeper mire of bewildered confusion. It's interesting...
it's amusing...but above all it's unethical and pathetic.

A search of your previous inept attempts demonstrates
Goober that at one point you made clear to everyone your
belief in some "pre-existence state", and also your doubts
that what you call "the existence we know" is as good
as what you believed your supposed "pre-existence state"
to be:
__________________________________________________ _______
"EVEN WITH the very best animal welfare conditions one
might provide: they STILL might not be as good as the
"pre-existence" state was for the animals" - Goo

"When the entity moves from "pre-existence" into the
existence we know, we don't know if that move improves
its welfare, degrades it, or leaves it unchanged." - Goo
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Later you claim to have somehow *learned* that your
supposed "pre-existence state" *is in fact* better than
what you call "the existence we know". Therefore
you believe nothing ever "benefits from coming into
existence", but instead would be somehow better off
if "the entity" remains in your supposed "pre-existence
state", and never "moves from "pre-existence" into the
existence we know":
__________________________________________________ _______
"Coming into existence is not a benefit to them: it does
not make them better off" - Goo

"No zygotes, animals, people, or any other living thing
benefits from coming into existence." - Goo
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
You have clearly made the claims, Goobs, but you have
yet to explain why anyone else would believe:

1. in your supposed "pre-existence state"
2. that your supposed "pre-existence state" is ALWAYS
better than what you call "the existence we know"
3. that there's any possible way you could have *learned*
that your supposed "pre-existence state" is ALWAYS
better than what you call "the existence we know"
4. that any supposed "entity(s)" in some supposed
"pre-existence state" could possibly--in *any* way--prevent
existing beings from benefitting from their own existence

****wit knows you're not lying, too. His entire participation here is
a lie, and he knows it.

Every one of them is beyond your ability to meet. So far
there's only one quiz which you are rightly afraid to take.

You still need to explain why you think it's ethically superior
for you to refuse to consider the lives of any animals. So far
all a person can do is wonder why you feel you are ethically
superior, and why you've been displaying such idiotic behavior
for all these years.

Yes, ****wit. He isn't lying, and you know he isn't.
Lying and time-wasting are the only tactics you've had
available to you for seven years.

If your thinking is just like vegans except for a matter of degree then you
can no longer criticze them for their failure to provide life for livestock.

I do consider their lives, I just don't make their lives a moral bargaining

No, ****wit. You are no challenge to anyone, ****wit, certainly not
to Dutch. You have no ability, and Dutch has quite a lot.

You are no challenge at all, ****wit.

No, ****wit. *No* contrived "challenge" you may issue
is beyond Dutch's or my ability, ****wit. Dutch and I
both are more capable in every aspect of life than you.
Dutch owns multiple properties in Canada, you
****wit, while you split your time between a vacant lot

Yes you do. You feel that denying consideration of their lives
gives you a bigger pile of "moral bargaining chips " than you
would have if you did consider them. The fact that you believe
it is obvious, but so is the fact that you can't explain WHY you
think it does. Since you can't explain WHY you think it does,
all anyone else can do is wonder along with you WHY you feel
that way. You can't explain it because you don't understand it
....you just know you believe it because a "talking pig" told you so.

Nope, the Logic of the Larder tells YOU that. There is no moral importance
(i.e. bargaining chip) to the fact that animals "get to experience life"
because we raise them for food. None, zero. It's YOU who is making it a
moral issue, YOU.

Default Considering human influence on animals

Goober some of the things I repeatedly challenged
you to do which are beyond your ability, are to try:

1. explaining exactly which emotions animals can and
can not experience.

2. explaining how anything could have inherent rights.

3. providing any opposition at all to "AR".

4. explaining why nothing has ever benefitted from living.

5. explaining why we should only consider killing but not life.

6. explaining what or whom--other than those who are
disturbed by the fact that humans eat meat--would benefit
from their elimination objective.

7. describing any emotion(s) through language.

8. explaining any way(s) in which people could contribute to
better lives for food animals.

9. explaining why one emotion is more difficult to experience
than another.

10. explaining how any difference between the ability of humans and
other animals to experience emotions, is a moral issue.

11. explaining the qualitative differences between anger and
disappointment, if there are any.

12. demonstrating an ethically equivalent or superior alternative
to the elimination of domestic animals.

13. explaining what it is that makes animals appear to be experiencing
certain emotions, under conditions which could easily trigger those
particular emotions, if it is not those particular emotions.

14. explaining how any emotions could be dependant on language.

15. explaining the kind of stimulus-response "anticipation" you can get
from a dog.

16. explaining what--if anything at all--he has learned from experience
with animals.

17. explaining what could be more important to animals raised for food
than the experiencing of their lives.

18. describing any tests which have been done to test for self-awareness
in dogs.

19. explaining why dogs jump up above tall grass so they can see, if
"They are not aware that they can see. "

No challenge. You pose no challenge at all, ****wit.
You couldn't challenge a half-dead worm.

If it's no challenge Goo, why can't you address this on a point by
point basis?

What the *HELL* is wrong with you Goo!?

I think you clobbered him senseless with the "19 challenges".
