Biologically there is no difference. Humans are just another type of animal. So unless your argument is spiritual, then I don't see where you're going with this.

Seriously?

How many skyscrapers have Zebras built?

How many diseases have Skunks cured?

How many books have Hampsters written?

This is simple, pal. You are an atheist that hates Christians and is trying to start an argument with them so you can look smart. Nice try.

Most of us here are on to your game. You are no genius.

But, I'll tell you what. Next time your house is on fire, I'll send the chimpanzee fire brigade to put it out. Or, when you kids go to school, I'll have my dog teach them algebra. How's that sound?
 
So if some aliens came down in their space ship would it be ok to kill them just because they aren't human?

Yes. But if they came down from space you can bet we'd be on the menu list.

How many skyscapers have you built?

How many diseases have you built?

How many books have you written?

Its simple given that we evolved at a faster pace than our enemies in nature we won the battle! That does not mean we have yet won the war. We do not know about any other species that could have evolved alongside us. We do not know what was the species that monkeys came from. And we do not know of every species that exists out in nature.

I hate Christians, and I hate athiests, and I hate Muslims, Hindos, Buddha people. You name it I hate it. We shouldn't bring religion here because if you really want to know. Relgion extremism is the biggest problem in the world. How do you feel about that? And also athiests are punks, who are mostly strung out on drugs all day long. You should come to realize that there is something out there that created life but we don't have a clue what it was.

Terrible analogy. Totally taken out of context.

I have not "built any diseases". I have worked on a book, but never finished.

Lay off the zombie flicks, nerd. I think humans won this one.

Wow. You need to get out.

I hate Christians, and I hate athiests, and I hate Muslims, Hindos, Buddha people. You name it I hate it.

I doubt it. I think the truth is you probably just hate Christians.

I have no idea what the that little tourette's outburst is all about, but I'm willing to guess by the maturity of your posts and handle that you are a teenager. Or an idiot. Or both. You and repeter are probably best friends.

Im guessing that you are just a fat republican who does nothing but preach and only believes that freedom is the right to live the way you do. Sad. You are scum to this world and you will never amount to anything.
Luckily your time on this earth is limited and everyday you get closer to death. When you pass the world will be a better place.
 
I am a human, therefore, I am more loyal to humans than non-human animals. Even beasts understand the concept of loyalty to the species.

Also, there is a difference biologically, hence, the species designation.

There are animals I would save before I saved other humans...:lol:

I not a Republican. I'm a member of the Whigs (click on the link in my sig block). I'm not fat, but rather quite fit, actually.

I don't preach to anyone. I don't think people have to live like me.

I don't think animals and humans are equals. I don't hate Christians.

Actually, I'm a relatively successful, well-educated person who makes a decent amount of money and has a very nice family. I've done quite well for myself.

So...you are a teenager! Ha! I knew it! Don't you have homework to do, mister? No milk and cookies for you tonight!

If it came between saving you or a cat from a burning building, I'd save the cat. Then you.

This is the internet so I really doubt you are successful enough to compare to me. And no I am no teenager, and HA. You are old.

Your weak ass couldn't save ****.

So, you got an A+ on your spelling test?

And no I am no teenager, and HA. You are old.

OK, College kid? Same thing. Except you can drink.
 
I think that's a pony of some sort, and she looks Korean. :lol:


Maybe you ARE old...Get your eyes checked old man!

Ha! I wondered what that thing was!

Truth be told...I'm still in my 20s; for a little while longer.
 
Yes... except domesticated farm animals such as pigs, cows, chickens, etc.
 
All animals should have the right to life---unless I have made plans to eat them--then all bets are off. :2wave:
 
They have a right to life as long as they can maintain that right through force. When something bigger and stronger comes along that denies them that right, then.... they lose it.

In that case, it's not a right, it's just an ability to live, so long as they don't become dead.
 
I'm thinking if aliens came down in their space ship, we are in some deep doo-doo, as we might not survive that.....:shock:

Oh, we can't die, we have a "right" to life! :roll:
 
That's pretty much what a 'right' is

Rights are socially-agreed upon. Abilities are simply what happens given no interference.

YES! That's why I used quotes around the word 'right'. I was looking for another word, and ability fits perfectly.
 
If your argument against abortion is biological (not spiritual), meaning that embryos/fetuses deserve a "right to life" because they are biologically alive (as is sperm), then why do animals not also deserve a right to life, as biologically they meet all the same criteria, if not moreso. Discuss.

Humans and other animals are distinctly different. I'll consider recognizing an animals' right to life when it can become a lawyer and sue me.
 
They deserve to be eaten.
