Why do you put those artificial boundaries up as to why one should or should not kill an animal for food?
Quote: not to mention that they have more developed nervous systems. Anyway, as I said, I don't think pescetarianism is totally defensible, just more defensible than being an omnivore.
I think it is totally defensible, but I don't have to defend it. You just draw a line in the sand and say anything beyond that is wrong to eat, I make no such distinction. You make a moral judgment in your food choice which is great for you, but you cannot apply those moral values on me or anyone else.

It was, but like in any joke there is a grain of truth in there.
