The further science progresses, the closer we get to proving that animals are conscious in the same way that we are conscious. The very idea that we should be the only ones with consciousness is based in egotism which originally sprang from Judaism and Zoroastrianism, the latter of which has been eradicated, one day we will too eradicate Judaism and all the poison that it has caused.

Thanks to the poison poured out onto his by Abraham you think it is normal to elevate humans above all else, but had you been born elsewhere and with different normalities you would believe whatever is normal there, had you beem born in Hawaii or Haiti 150 years ago you would think cannibalism was normal. This is illogical and even the Pythagorians worked this out for themselves with no outside influence. The inability to see past the normalities of your birthplace and the beliefs of those around you is the mark if a closed mind.

A 'civilization' that makes such a ridiculous fuss about alleged 'war crimes' - acts of violence against the actual or potential enemies of one's cause - and tolerates slaughterhouses and vivisection laboratories, and circuses and the fur industry (infliction of pain upon creatures that can never be for or against any cause), does not deserve to live.
