...and worse.
No, I'm not advocating any form of Animal "punishment", torture, "sacrifice", etc. I said objectively, because I don't want ignorant people who don't understand what "objectivity" means to cry that I'm evil and that I should join islam. Undoubetly and of course, any replies would have subjectivity in them, as well, I do expect.
Animals catch and kill other Animals; cats play with and tease and torture their prey; big cats sink their claws and rip into their prey; a spider uses its web to catch flies and insects... all of these Animals (speaking taxonomically) all are tortured and suffer in pain and bloodshed, or if not pain, then their Souls are damaged, until they die.
Why can't we do that? We have to make sure worms are dead properly before we hook them onto the fishing rod. Why must we be humane - or 'animale', as I call it, when Animals don't give a shit (so to speak)? Any Animal tortured to death with claws sunk into its flesh, or dying inescapably in a spider's web, would surely reincarnate in a worse state from that torture and suffering. Animals have their Souls free while we don't. Are we only "allowed" to do things as we please while we are Gods and Goddesses or have free Souls? Apparently, Might does make Right - if you're in a pride of lions or a pack of wolves, then your prey is fucked, and you can rip them to shreds in very much pain before feasting on their flesh, and revelling in having a hearty meal.
What makes us different? Animals do have feelings/emotions. They do have subjectivity. Why, if their Souls are free and ours are not, can they do stuff but we can't? I know it's "wrong", but in one sense, death makes life (I don't mean to sound like a jew, nor a hippie, maaaan). I could not go out and hunt Animals or butcher them, but I do eat meat.
