Lol, this thread. They're just animals.

You're a human. Your species is more important than any other species.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciesism
I dont see Deers building rockets capable of intercepting world ending astroids, or atempting to cure desease. They are not peooppleand they only act on instinct. They eat shit and die. (Very few species go beyond this and those I do feel simpathy for.) Even people working in what we concider 'low class' jobs are helping to keep everything running. We are above animals. We only should be concrned when our actions against them are harmfull to the earth as a whole or we threaten to drive them to extinion. You yould be more concernned about globa warming since that affects alot more than a few deers

Not better than. All animals show an indication of a self-preserving instinct. Why would we be any different?
Because we've achieved higher intelligence, such that we can contemplate our actions. We can self-preserve very easily without having to kill other sentient creatures. You know that, and it's perfectly healthy.

And even if it wasn't, the health thing is really irrelevant. Because we'd still have an ethical imperative not to kill fellow sentient creatures for our gain.

You're not doing that. Most of the human race isn't doing that. Are you saying we should shoot, kill, and eat humans?

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.

I disagree.

But then again, I'm the kind of guy who's okay with the culling of the severely retarded.

Wrong.

Nihilists should be banned from having an opinion on anything.
People who respond to an argument solely with "Wrong." should be banned from having an opinion on anything.

I disagree.
I know you do, but you've really never went any further than that. I can't comprehend why anyone would disagree, and I normally wouldn't be this pushy, but this is a really important issue in my opinion.

We're the most intelligent species on the planet. You honestly don't think this gives us the responsibility to protect all sentient life?

There is no arguing with a nihilist. None. That is the most fruitless endeavor I could possibly think of, next to arguing with a religious nut. We're going to get absolutely nowhere, because you're an idiot who thinks only the self matters. Which is wrong.

Until you concede that you're wrong, we really can't discuss a goddamn motherfucking THING, because I'm always going to be arguing from the perspective of an individual who actually gives a fuck about the implications of having a planet filled with all this sentient life.

I'm not a nihilist. Nihilism is not believing in anything, but I believe in a lot of things. Most specifically, the superiority of our species above all else. You're a human, you don't need to care about anything that's not going to affect your race.

That just means you're a nihilist with a bigoted agenda. You admit to being a bigot on a number of subjects. Tell me why I should waste my time arguing with someone who admits to being a bigot, as if we're honestly going to get anywhere.

But I do anyway. Because I'm ethically superior to you.

I couldn't feel less important. I live in a world containing hundreds of billions of sentient creatures. I am among the least important things on the planet. Especially from my own perspective.

FUCK self-interest.

So long as there are starving or poor, no. Humanity should come first as humans have the largest capacity to feel suffering, right?
Now, that's not to say that we should be out exterminating everything to feed Africans.Animals are a resource, replenishable, but finite at any given moment.  If man is to live for centuries beyond us, we have to maintain the ecosystem in a stable condition. This does include playing the role of God sometimes, as we've fucked some things up, and we will continue to do so. Populations need to be checked, other populations need to be recovered, and people need easy access to food.
Now, in the end of it all, when the capitalist system creates a post-scarcity situation in which a socialist gift economy thrives solely because there is no labor to be done by any man, then we really have no excuse to not solely eat manufactured nutrients that contain no animal or plant byproduct.

Remember, plants react to stimuli/pain too.

Am sorry for ramble, am drinking.

No, I don't think so. If they did, you'd have a point, but if you strap a human and a chimpanzee to a gurney and stuck a knife in both of their chests, the amount of suffering endured will be indistinguishable. Same with a deer, same with a cow, same with a pig. There's no basis for the assumption that humans have a higher capacity to suffer than animals.

They don't, though. Pendulate happens to be a yearning biologist, from what I know, so he might be able to provide some proof for that, but I feel like we've been over this already. Plants lack a central nervous system to administer the sensation of pain, as well as a brain to comprehend it. It's feasibly impossible (and evolutionarily nonsensical) for plants to feel pain. They may respond to stimuli, but this in itself does not necessitate pain.
