Value of Life?

Taping a moth to a wall is probably a sign of a personality disorder.

This tbh.

Swatting it away because it's annoying would be one thing, but taping it to a wall?

Nut job much?

I never tried Lobster, the way they kill it is horrid & that is why I will never eat it. Nothing, should be boiled alive. If I am going to eat it, it has to be dead before I hear about or see it.

You dont watch it being boiled alive! It comes dead on your plate

How about how chickens are treated in farms, think id rather be boiled alive

yeah, especially when everyone knows it's funnier to rub their powdery scales off their wings and watch them try to fly

I don't kill bees, wasps etc as a rule, but last year poured and ignited a can of petrol into a wasps nest, (hole in ground) in the garden, due to our dog and two of the bairns being stung.

I wouldn't kill anything just for the hell of it. I'd kill a fly for buzzing around and causing a nuisance, but only after first trying to usher it outside.

Same here, I try & live in harmony with the rest of nature but if I have to dispatch something I will.

So you ended hundreds of lives just to protect a dog and 2 human children

I know it's a hard thing to do but isn't it always better to sacrifice the few to save the many ?

Idiotic argument

 

[Efour]

I will kill anything smaller, less intelligent and better looking than me... FACT.

Idiotic argument

Who's arguing?

 

[arc@css]

I have always liked moths.

Dear lord....GD is full of it today!

Oh lord.

Yup!!! We'd managed to put up with them during bbq's, eating out, but the sting episodes happened in two days, so it was time to go to DEFCON 1

Looks?

This for most people, fluffy bunny syndrom. Silly animal rights protesters only care about big cute stuff.

It’s fully of something but I’m not too sure what it is.

 

[jp_bl_68]

So what is the value if life based upon?
Size? Intelligence? Looks?

I think it varies depending on an emotional connection to the animal in question.

I value the life of any human above that of almost any animal. But I value the lives' of my pets (when I had some), co-workers, friends and family above the lives of all other humans.

Can anyone honestly admit with hand-on-heart they don't actually enjoy killing Wasps?

When i was a small kid and i didnt know any better i did, its a bit like dancing with death when you kill wasps when theres a hive nearby though so that was probably some of the appeal.

Nowadays i wouldn't even consider killing one, same goes for an ant, if i knew there was one on the floor i would avoid it stamping on it. The only insects i make exception of are the blood sucking ones, hate the damn things.

 

[jp_bl_68]

I have always liked moths.

Me too. Every other winged insect annoys me, some more than others, but I quite like moths.

Can't stand mosquitoes. They're the only creature that I'll actively hunt down.

You get 20 man points for killing a cat*

-1 for killing a moth



*Cats to me are vermin, I dont like them, and my dog hates them too, but will not chase them, stupid animal.
