I'd be surprised if you did, and if you don't that premise seems very dubious.
Quote:If men are nothing more than highly intelligent animals then why can't we eat other animals?I think you mean to ask why shouldn't we eat other animals, as we demonstrably can. I must say I don't understand what relevance the fact we are intelligent animals has here? Are you implying there is something more that should stop us eating meat, if so then please explain what this might be? Otherwise this premise seems oddly circular.
