This Thanksgiving, I was grateful for my body not being a graveyard.

The only anatomical difference between a human mammalian brain and all other mammalian brain is:

Human have superior frontal lobe evolution. This gives us the ability to think about the very things we're arguing about.

All other aspects of the brain are there. For all of us.:

The amygdala (part of the limbic system of all complex vertebrates. It is responsible for processing emotional reactions and memory).

Sympathetic and parasympathetic areas of the brain... All complex vertebrates have them. They are responsible for reactions to environmental stress as well as homeostasis after a traumatic event.

Not to mention the fact that we conveniently forget the attachment nearly all mammalian mothers have to their offspring. It would be a pretty shitty species (survival-wise) if there was no emotional motive to protect and feed their young. Ever hear a cow's cries after its calf is stripped away from her and turned into veal?

I have no patience for people who have the ability to look at creatures that resemble us so closely and still ask themselves:

"How could I ever relate to this mammal?"

For fuck's sake. It's nearly identical to your anatomy in every sense. I'm convinced you have to try to not relate to mammals. Arms, legs, bones, livebirth, milk from mothers, hair, central nervous systems, the capacity to learn, etc.

If you're a semblance of a morally inclined person, there is no moral question about eating meat. You simply do not eat flesh and blood.

>> No.4985150

You share a vast majority of your genomes with houseflies. I bet you still kill them.

Seriously, why do you vegan fags even try? This is a board based around cooking. Meat has been a part of our cooking literally since we've been humans, before even. Cooked meat gave us the calories for us to develop larger brains.

For someone spouting so much shit about biology, you certainly don't understand it.

This is actually a pretty baseless myth. It wasn't "extra calories" that did it, it was starch sources like underground tubers that gave us extra glucose to fuel our brains. We developed large concentrations of amylase specifically for this

So long as other animals kill to eat, we are permitted to do so as fellow animals.

End of story.

The problem with that kind of logic is that it justifies literally anything, and actually implies you also think stuff like "as long as other animals rape each other, we are permitted to do so as fellow animals" or else you're cherry-picking

If you want to use the old "life's a bitch" style logic, be prepared to accept everything that accompanies it

Nice strawman. It most certainly does not require me to admit to or accept that.

If rape were okay then the female animals having it done to them would not have evolved defenses against it. Female ducks, for example. They fight, flee, or otherwise evolve to thwart rape as best they can.

Try again.

It actually isn't a strawman though, that's the full view of what you said. You can't say say "bad things happen, so bad things are okay" and then use it to only apply to things that you benefit from or are convient for you.

>If rape were okay then the female animals having it done to them would not have evolved defenses against it.

What are you, retarded? Animals don't evolve to better avoid being killed?

I can relate to them. I have a pet dog, and a pet duck, and used to have a cat. My friend loves her horse. They are cool, and I wouldn't kill or eat them.

But other animals are not those and I DONT GIVE A FUCK YOU CUNT

Imagine. You're on your deathbed and your child is there. When your child grows up, he learns that you decided to live your life as kindly as possible. He knows that you lived as cleanly and morally as possible (even though meat is tasty and primal as fuck).

Can you imagine the respect you could illicit from your kids/family/relatives? You're leaving pretty big moral shoes to fill.

I never knew how cow slaughter worked until now. I guess these bolt guns don't kill the cow, they just make it unconscious so its heart keeps beating so that all its blood runs out. Kind of interesting.
