Humans are NOT superior to the other species.
I'm sick and tired of all this "bible" gargle that we as humans have some sort of entitlement or superiority over the other species. Well, guess what. WE ****ING DON'T! They have just as many right to live and fend for themselves as we do. We took over this planet, destroying it lil by lil. When humanity will take reponsability for our abuse, then maybe we can sit and judge and condemn other species.
PETA loves you."Lil by lil." Isn't she just the cutest thing...

17. So we shouldn't ride horses,
or have any pets? If you have some land and space, we shouldn't have a chicken coop or keep a couple of cows?
Ohh!!

35. I havent said that.
Humans sometimes have children for some reasons others have pets.
We need food, so chicken coops are fine. Because a wolf in the wild would eat you and want more too, afterwords!! I'm not refering to that.
I'm refering to some shooting animals for fun, using them in sports and hurting and killing them with no specific purpose. Shooting them for being "vermin", as i just saw in anoter thread a few secs ago (someone claimed he/she shoots racoons )
Killing their HABITAT!! THEN SHOOTING THEM, WHEN THEY TRY TO FIND GOOD ON OUR TURF!!
We use more than we need, we abuse this planet.
It will all culminate with our own demise. Since we are too fuking stupid to change our ways.
Using them in hunting, and what you call "sports," (you sadistic heathen) IS for a purpose. To eat, to make clothes from the leather. I could go on describing, but you wouldn't "get it."
Vermin are vermin. Rats, mice, snakes, raccoons, various bugs. We kill them because they can harm the population at large in various ways. Some just kill them because they're freaking nasty creatures. You don't like humans? Go kill them because they're nasty creatures. Then, you can find out how superior we actually are to animals, because you'll end up in a structure WE built called a "Prison."

8. We are the only species that can consider whether we are superior or not.
So yes, we are. That doesn't mean I buy into the Bible crap but we are more than animals.
Most of the time.

14. Bullshit!! we are not!!
What makes you superior or more entitled to surviving than say a cat?? We use our inteligence to abuse this planet, enslave and destroy other species without remorse.
We are biological beigns , just like our fellow animals and plants. What we do to/with them is despicable.
BULLSHIT, she say!!
I say, why is it that you asshats only ever look at the destructive side? Choose to look at the beauty. The fact that because we are humans with very high intellect, we can do everything from creating beautiful objects like Mt. Rushmore to saving countless lives with all the medicinal research, and headway we've been doing/making.
Oh, and cats lick their ass. I don't lick my ass. I don't know any human that licks it's ass except for maybe UGP, but that's a whole different thread. Do you lick your ass, darkangel? I wipe mine....proudly. I'm advanced.

25. I'm sorry.
But if it came down to a cat's life or one of my sons, or my granddaughter - too bad for the cat.

47. A mother lioness will think the same for her cubs.
You're missing the point. It's not about defending your family. It's about abusing and destroying other species for no reason other then entertainment, comfort/abuse, and entitlement.
Looks like she's gonna circle around to those eeeeeeeeeeevil guns here in a while...

9. So, do you feel pet owners are in effect, like slave owners?
Should all pet owners set their pets "free", instead of keeping them?
It has always been incomprehensible to me how some can put animals on the same level or higher than other human beings. I once did a thread talking about how many dog owners seem to do this, and got a lot of crazed defenses and self-righteous outrage about it from dog lovers.
Meow meow meow-meow meoooow.

69. Then there is something wrong with us, if we feel its ok to destroy the planet for our silly shit.
Do you need a huge mansion and 10 cars? Do you need nuclear plants to power your estate, so that you can run your 50 seat private theater?
QDo you hunt wild animals for fun?
Maybe you don't, but many do.
It's not that use what we need, we abuse this planet until the day it will rid of us.
"it will rid of us?" What's she gonna do? Should I be scared of Mother Earth? Bring it on!! I'll fart so big, it pops a hole in your ozone layer, M.E! Bring it on. I like it here, and I ain't leaving until He decides to take me. MAKE me go, Mother Earth! You think you're nore powerful than God? Hahaha. I'd like to see you try to take him on. I don't sweat you, Mother Earth. Up yours!!

72. The planet was here long before humans...
and will be here long after humans have gone.
The planet will survive just fine, with or without humans.

So then what's with all the Glowball Warming bullshit at the DU then?

40. Maybe, if we can get real climate change action in place, it will inspire us...
...to do more for the environment in general.
I, too, lament what is happening to the polar ice caps and the species it threatens.

I lament your complete stupidity. Queue the polar bears falling onto cars, and shit in the city commercial.

16. This is true. dolphins and whales have larger and more complicated brains than human beings
They communicate and operate in a very ethical manner. I would say that although we have a leg up on them with our hands and ability to manipulate our environment, their species are older and have all the trappings of intelligent species.
Except that they love to have that butt sex, too. Which homos love to point out that other species do it too when that political/moral/ethical discussion comes up.
OK guys, I'm done. Have at it.
