Lower forms of life have different levels sentient feelings.
Cows have similar levels of sentient feelings as do humans.
Bugs have very low sentient feelings.
Microbes have no sentient feelings.
I said that bacteria do not suffer and feel pain as higher life forms, but they still have the soul within.
It does not matter if the lower form ha ...[text shortened]... ssify them ignorant, ignoramus and ignoble.
How are you coming to your conclusion about this.
Just read, and re-read, all of your contradictions you just made in one single post, namely this one above.
You are on a unique track. I'd love to see where it goes. Please keep in touch, if possible, on a human mentative level.

This is the sought of falsity that I am talking about.
The false teachings of the Bible, tells the followers that animal slaughter is ok and not to be cruel to animals has no spiritual value whatsoever,
Absolute nonsense and a very dangerous belief.
Anyway, what (and exactly please), is "dangerous" about believing it's acceptable to kill animals and eat them?
I am not interested in a further diatribe of your personal distate of the practice, but at least some level of evidence based discussion to support this rather emotive claim you are making.

What's a bottle O? Is that like what we call the 'animal pound' here in the US? A place where animals are put to either be given to a family or to be put to death.
We aussies have a tendence to put "o" on the end of everything, especially names, "Stevo,Davo,Marto,etc."

Still, which is worse:5 ciggies a day, or the disconnection between people and the food put in front of them?

Try and understand this very important point....
If I am talking with someone and having a discussion about lets say the eternal soul, and the other person interrupts the flow of the conversation by saying something incorrect, I would have to at that point correct the mistake for the sake of the conversation going forward....do you follow?
So in thi ...[text shortened]... aos.
The mistakes are NOT dishonest.....but the refusal to correct the mistake is dishonest.
I dont know mate, keep plodding along, the fact that you show reluctance to change and seem so cock-sure of yourself is worrying.
Fundie talk like that is always worrying
So different to the humourful , yet wise utterances that came from the bhuddas "golden lips"
Originally posted by divegeesterWell ,I'm guesing that the former is worse for you but you dont impose that on others.
That's for the individual to decide - I don't judge in that respect.
Individually I decide that the latter is worse, and not just the disconnection between meat but also veges and fruit.
