(June 3, 2013 at 6:36 am)The Germans are coming Wrote: Wrong! I repeatedly stated that I considere humans to be supirior, we have a civilisation, greater awareness over our surroundings, are capable to learn and establish knowlege which are unrequired for simple survival, have surpassed the stage at which our behavior is primearely controled by our instincts and are capable of creative thought.You've stated that we are superior to animals, based this on your own standards of superiority (anthropocentrism), and used it to justify victimisation of entire groups. How is this not bigotry?
Only because you dont think that this is not a valid justification this does not mean that you are right.
The burden of proof is on you to show that I am wrong.
And all you did is make insultingly stupid statements which would be considered plain ans simple biggotry if it werent for your obvious stupidity.
Such as comparing the animal rights issue to the lesbian and gay rights movement as if gays and lesbians were somehow animals!
As for our civilisation, we have already applied standards from our civilisation to animals, as is seen in laws we currently have against senseless cruelty to animals. The difference is that veganism applies these standards to animals all the time, not just when it's convenient. Why accept any level of cruelty?
@ Zen Badger: it is a fallacy to even ask me for an example in nature to demonstrate why we should behave in a civilised manner.
