Have you figured out a way to give him a beating that he won't forget and you don't go to jail?

Son won't tell me which dirtbag did it but I think I know which one it was. My son had a bad few years with the wrong crowd. He has not had contact with those people in over 10 years. Crack makes people do nasty shit.

To me, no.

I'd much prefer raising a Bengal tiger to 3 children. And tigers must be hand fed for life.:lol:

To God, of course. To think otherwise would negate the entire New Testament, but this does not mean we as humans can turn the other cheek. If we could, our entire civil court system would be rendered moot.

Your posts are confusing me.

But with this last one I hope for you as well that you have as little contact with humans as possible. Good for all involved.

It is an interesting problem, I feel like you see it all the time.

Seems like a vaguely homogeneous group of people may in majority share certain beliefs or attributes.... and while it appears obvious, it is nearly impossible to "prove" in any meaningful way.
What would be the point of proving in this scenario? To win an internet "debate?"

You couldn't prove anything meaningful, hence the futility of the exercise.

OK Balaam, your short-sighted ignorance knows no bounds.

But this holds true of animals we routinely slaughter for food. Not saying you shouldn't feel compassion but it's all a bit arbitrary that for whatever reason we decided that Cats and Dogs and other pets somehow get special treatment over all the other mammals we gladly butcher. Point being, the inherent worth of an animal is not set in stone but merely based on whether we have decided it's a pet vs food.

Then again maybe I am just jaded. I used to go to my grandparents farm during the summers and as a kid considered a lot of those animals pets until one day my grandfather strung Buster (goat) up by its hind legs, slit its throat to drain the blood and sliced open its stomach. I was pissed at him for about a year and refused to go back their the next summer but eventually came to the realization that gramps had to make a living.
IMHO the difference is that the eunuch killed the kitten for no good reason. It's not like the dude was starving and needed food.

Perhaps, but perhaps not. The exercise itself has value. Calculus is meaningless for most, but valuable in logic IMO.

Anyone who values life of an animal more than humans says more about them than they would probably want to admit.

Many people value animals over humans, as we are inherently evil...which is Biblical.

I think you're being a bit over assuming.
