Christ's birthday

[rjh4 is back]

Not that relevant to his point He (God) slaughtered everything around Sodom and Gomorra for instance... that would include innocent 'deer in the forest'... who were simply not as favored by 'God' as were the humans. The bible doesn't even MENTION the non-human animals residing in and around Sodom and Gomorra...

It absolutely is relevant. Craveman said God was not loving and fair because he cause animals to die. I'm wondering if Craveman's world view is consistent with this.

And it turns out that other animals are just as alive as us... many of them feel pain just like us... a handful of them even have the ability to recognize their reflection. It is preposterous that other creatures don't deserve many of the rights we have... after all: how will we explain this barbaric and little controlled animal consumption to the aliens? Or will those aliens decide that we taste just right?

If you want to put animals on the same plane as humans go right ahead. But that is certainly not my view of things.

And by the way, I think the "Twilight Zone" did an episode about aliens eating humans. I cannot remember what the episode was called though. It was a good one.

Rjh4,

Everyone knows that animals raised for meat are selected because of their genetic evilness so all of them deserve to die. *GRIN*

Yep.
