I buy free range eggs for instance. And now you're laughing.

But no matter what, that does not make me value animal life less than human. In a one-to-one, life-or-death struggle, yes, I'll take mine over that of a rapid gerbil or a dangerous spider, or even a psychotic slug. But killing an animal that's doing you no harm for no other reason than that it's there and you want to show what a big man/woman you are for being able to kill a defenceless animal? No.

I wonder, if stags and boars and so forth had built-in weapons, would people want to hunt them as much?
I just don't think you've thought through your assurance on human vs animal life.

If you were forced to condemn either one innocent animal or one innocent human to death, you would have no preference as to which one dies?

You gotta be more specific than just animal vs human. Lot's of people I can think of that would lose out against an innocent animal.

I said innocent. Let's assume it's a random person on the street vs a random dog you don't know.

What kind of dog are we talking here?

If it's a minpin I might just side with the puppy.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

We talking they are both hanging onto the edge of a cliff and I can only pull one up?
Safe to assume the dog weighs less, so the RPOTS loses this round.

Why do you keep looking for a loophole? Lol

If you value a dog's life more just say that. Stop trying to slide by on a technicality.

Face it. To give you a black or white answer I need specifics about my choices.

If a bus is about to hit both a dog and a person simultaneously I think my gut instinct would be to save the person. There's no thought process involved.

You want me to mull it over you gotta give me specifics.
