I wonder what the Vegans thought, after thinking they had been eating algae based food, only to discover that Soylent Green... IS PEEEEEOOOPLE! PEEEEEOOOOPLE! :lol:

Think that Soylent Green is just a movie?

Ever wonder what Spam is?

What do you think they really do with all of the illegals aliens that they claim to "deport"?

Then what is Treet made from?

Treet? What's that?

Spin off of Spam,just as nasty.

Qausi-Satanists and their lookalikes believe that cannibalism is ethical, assuming that the prospective meal is not sentient.

Animal intelligence, vs. do they go to heaven.

There are two ways of looking at it.

Some vegans believe that animal life is sacred, so call any carnivorism an act of cannibalism. They use the word cannibalism.

Is it?

In other words, does intelligence come from a physical brain or a spirit.

It comes from the ability to learn.

There is a difference between recording information, and creating that information. In other words, proactive or reactive.

A teacher once said to my class, "The more you know, the more you can know." I have found him to have been right. And I would add that the more you know the more foundation you have for creativity.

Then, you believe that the animal is self initiating, and can decide to something completely apart from instinct, after it eats enough bananas or catches enough flies.

I think tool use is the first indicator of learning.
