Tigra00 Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Oh come on now Astralinre...You know what I meant. Animals don't get the concept of "torturing". Whatever they do to an animal is likely a process in incapacitating it to eat it...Whales slap things with their tails to knock them out. Dolphins do it to sharks and then eat their livers (killing them) if a shark messes with them. Couldn't tell you why a cat slaps around a mouse, but I've never seen a cat slap around a live mouse. I've never seen them actually even EAT a mouse either, but *shrug*. My cat I had used to just kill them then slap them around for a while. They like to play. :lol: You're initial point is ridiculous anyway. No other animal on the planet drives cars, builds computers, or wears clothes but that doesn't mean we shouldn't. Am I justifying animal testing/torture? No. But your point is completely nonsensical. Or is it just that your examples are completely redundant? Yes, I think so! Animals aren't even physically capable of doing those things. The point was that animals don't understand the concept of "torturing". They kill to survive, period. You'll just say anything to get me to sound stupid because I made fun of your daddies job. Have a cry about it, you don't need to make completely stupid arguments just to try to "get back at me". Go call daddy and see what he thinks. The popularity of any given religion today depends on the victories of the wars they fought in the past. - Me!

Go call daddy and see what he thinks. Haha. That was funny. You're missing the point. Animals brains aren't capable of thinking abstractly like ours can, therefore, they can't build computers, wear clothes, drive cars, nor have any use of torturing/testing other animals. They are "redudant" in only the respect of WHY they are done, and why we do those things is the same as why we can build computers, drive cars, and wear clothes: we think abstractly. I don't need to make you look stupid Tigra. All I have to do is point out you said "daddies" when trying to make the word daddy possessive. Or that you call me names and antagonize me when when you run out of intelligent thoughts. No one else on this board does that and expects to get respect. Guess what people don't have for you?

Therefore the argument that "animals don't do it, so we shouldn't do it" is invalid. "In so far as I am Man I am the chief of creatures. In so far as I am a man I am the chief of sinners." - G.K.

Guess what people don't have for you? ...Why would a bunch of 14 year old's respect matter to me at all? 3/4 the users here don't even know how to spell it, lol. I don't call you names when I "run out of intelligent thoughts", I call you names (your words, not mine) because you say stupid things. It's like you follow my posts around trying to think of something to get me to respond to you. And I meant "Daddies" in more of a baby-talk manner. I was making fun of you...Who calls their dad to say "I'm right! I'm right!" over the age of 12...I mean really, who? You, I guess, but whatever.
