What I advocate is that every time a sentient animal comes into
existence, its right to life should be respected. No bullshitting
involved. I've told you exactly what I believe in.

No, Fuckwit. He has told you truthfully what he thinks
he believes.
You have claimed not to have heard from "aras" what
they believe, Fuckwit, and even when one explicitly
tells you, you still feign ignorance.
You are the stupidest cracker in Georgia.

"Their lives" don't have value to them, Fuckwit. Their
experiences do.
You, of course, are trying an inept and sophomoric and
repeatedly failed trick. You are trying to change it
to mean that coming into existence is a "benefit" to
them, Fuckwit, and that by wanting to prevent more
livestock animals from being bred and raised and
slaughtered, "aras" are somehow "denying" a benefit to
some interest-holding entity. You are wrong.
The entity must exist *first* before it can realize any
benefit; coming into existence is not a benefit, at
all. I hope that helps.

You fundamentally do not understand it, Fuckwit. You
can't. You have no special insight, and you are much
less educated than *everyone* with whom you stupidly
argue here. You don't understand it, Fuckwit.

Of course the fact that you contribute to their deaths in most of the same
ways that everyone else does can only make me disbelieve you.

You have tried to get me to believe what you want me to believe, and of
course I can't believe it. But you are still ashamed to admit what you really
promote, even though you boast about something you don't. It's quite
disgusting.

Let's forget your lies for a moment and get back to what you actually
promote. Why are you ashamed to admit that you want to prevent the
lives of billions of animals? Or, if you've finally found some way of having
pride in the fact, explain how you think preventing their lives respects
"their" right to life.

Goo disputes it, and you don't understand it. If you did, you would
be in favor of decent lives for the animals we raise to eat, NOT their
elimination.

I understand it better than you do, because I don't let that fact
confuse me into disregarding the fact that some livestock have
lives of positive value, or the fact that almost all of them could
and should. You apparently do. >> Stay informed about: "vegan" = NOT better |

Coming into existence is not a "benefit" for animals or

coming into existence.

Just say you don't want them to exist and stop trying to pretend you're
somehow respecting their right to life, because you are NOT!!! You deserve
NO CREDIT for it because YOU DON'T DO IT!!!!
People who are consumers promote their lives. They may not entirely
respect them since they contribute to their deaths as you do wildlife,
but they DO undoubtedly promote their lives while you do not.
You do NOT respect or promote any possible right to life by wanting
to prevent potential animals from having any life at all, and you're a
very disgusting person for trying to claim credit you do NOT deserve!!!

It also means that there IS the life. You don't respect OR promote
the lives of potential animals you would prevent from living, and you're
disgusting for constantly trying to claim credit for it.

LOL!!! The ONLY thing you've taught me is how dishonest, stupid, childish,
inept, ignorant, inconsiderate, etc a person can be Goo. But! If you really
believe you taught me that particular fact, it would be quite amusing if you
could say when you think you did it. >> Stay informed about: "vegan" = NOT better |

I've taught you everything you know about what's wrong

No one can. It is logically impossible. Before
potential beings exist, they have no life, or
anything else, to respect. One can only respect
beings who already exist.
It is possible to value things which exist now
because they connect us to people who lived earlier, and
( we hope ) to people who will come after us. We can
speak metaphorically of respecting the memory of
parents and ancestors, of wishing not to destroy "our
children's and our children's children's" heritage. But
these things exist *now*, and what we fear is not an
actual effect on people who are now dead, or people who
don't exist yet, but on ourselves. The only beings
whose lives we can actually respect are those who exist
now; any effect on past or future generations remains
a form of fantasy and imagination, not an issue of ethics. >> Stay informed about: "vegan" = NOT better |

For you. Everyone is not as limited as you are. People
can have respect for livestock to come, and prepare a
decent environment for them, for example. For another
example: they can consider that having a decent life
and humane death is of positive value for farm animals.
That's having respect for living animals, animals who
have lived in the past, and future animals as well.
>Before potential beings exist, they have no life, or
>anything else, to respect. One can only respect
>beings who already exist.
I can say that I respect the life of a dead chicken I
never saw before and still eat of its dead body, just as
well and honestly as you can say you respect it while
refusing to eat any.
Out of curiosity, if you don't feel that we can respect
the rights of animals who have not been born yet, why
would we not be limited in the same way from being able
to respect the rights of animals we don't know even exist?

Not to you, because you can't respect the lives of livestock
at all. You can NOT say that you respect the lives of potential
animals that you want to prevent from living. Their consumers
can, but you can NOT. And that is even more true for promoting
their lives. Consumers promote their lives, and ONLY consumers
promote their lives. You "aras" do NOT. If you try to claim any
credit for respecting or promoting the lives of animals raised for
food, you are being dishonest in a very contemptible way, and
you should be very ashamed. In fact now would be a good time
to begin trying to overcome such shame, by confessing the
times when you shamefully tried to persuade people that you do
respect or promote any life for livestock. Have you ever tried to
claim credit for either or both? Are you rightly ashamed of yourself
for trying to claim it, if you have? If you've attempted the claim,
you should make a point of explaining that you made a grotesque
error which greatly disrespects the lives of livestock...especially
to any children you may have lied to. IF there are any children
who would want to contribute to decent lives for livestock with
their lifestlye some day, we certainly do NOT! want them clinging
to the absurd belief that they can do it by being vegan, do we? >> Stay informed about: "vegan" = NOT better |

By your logic, only murderers can be said to respect the life
of their victims, and those who oppose and try to prevent
murder are being disrespectful of the lives of those whose
murder they try to prevent.
That's truly twisted logic.... >> Stay informed about: "vegan" = NOT better |

Coming into existence is not a "benefit" for any animals.

You can NOT rationally say that you "respect" the lives
of non-existent "future farm animals", Fuckwit - "they"
don't *have* any lives.
> Their consumers can, but you can NOT.
No, "their" consumers CANNOT, Fuckwit - "they" don't
have any lives to be respected.
In any case, Fuckwit, you do NOT respect the lives even
of animals that exist. ALL you "respect" are the
goodies you get from them: "Meat. Gravy." >> Stay informed about: "vegan" = NOT better |
