"getting to experience life", of course, means "coming into existence." It does *NOT* mean continued existence, *Gloo*. We're comparing coming into existence - "getting to experience life", in your shitty way of putting it - with *never* existing. Coming into existence is not a benefit - period. I've explained it, and you agree. Try to explain how Done. *Continuing* to exist, once one already exists, is something else. That's why killing the animal deserves a *LOT* of moral consideration, *Gloo*. *Gloo*, you keep trying to play word games with me, and you *KNOW* you can't win them. You can't win them, *Gloo*, because I'm smarter than you, I'm more intelligent than you, I'm more articulate than you, and I understand language *FAR* above your cracker limitation. You are *SOOOOOO* far below me when it comes to use of language, *Gloo*, that you don't have any hope of beating me. You outstupided yours You have no hope of beating me, and you have admitted it. I get this, and you don't. If you think you do then I do, and you don't. You've admitted it. You are not a man.

Irrelevant, of course. Less irrelevant than the fact that they're killed, Goob. Other than because it works against elimination, why are you so desperate that people don't consider their lives as being as significant as their deaths Goober?

No What other reason(s) do you think you have, Goo? up to the point it was killed, ****wit. *Once* it is alive, then its life has moral meaning.

You outstupided yourself AGAIN unless you can explain how you think something can get to experience life without continuing to exist Goob. You also outstupid yourself when you are dishonest which is the majority of the time. I beat you when those things happen and I beat you every time I challenge you to explain some things you can't explain, you lame Googoots. I'll beat you nineteen times again now by challenging you 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." admitted You admit I beat you nineteen times just then, Goo. I get this, and you don't. If you think you do then try explaining how you think you disagree with yourself about it Goo. Go: I do Then try explaining how you think you disagree with yourself about it Goo. GO: I have explained exactly how coming into existence - "getting to experience life", LOL - is not a benefit, and you have *agreed* with it, *Gloo*. You were *forced* to agree with it Then why can't you force it now Goober? Even though you can't force it, try to present something to at least consider, Goo.
