And antibiotics involve harming living beings. It all depends where you draw your line. You, apparently, set your standard of significance at the ability to suffer. I draw mine at the ability to reason. Others, who take a more extreme view, may draw it at life.
What makes your criteria better than anyone else's (in either direction).
So you think that we should be allowed to eat mentally ill people who aren't capable of reason? There are plenty of people with a lower IQ than Dogs, Pigs, Dolphins and the Great apes so either you think we SHOULD eat the mentally Ill or we shouldn't eat the higher animals.
We were talking on another thread about a child born with only a brainstem but no brain. We can definitely eat him right?
WHY do you think ability to reason is what should make people safe from being eaten by others?
Some may call them junk, I call them treasures.
