As for sentience, if I had to kill a concious person and a non-aware person in a vegetative state for whatever reason we could think of for the "if" game, I would most likely choose the person in the vegetative state to kill. How about you?
Indeed. I also value sentience.
So you both agree to that, but isent that the arguement for not eating animals? If you had the ability to choose between killing an animal and a plant, which would you choose? Obviously the plant is less sentient, so by that reasoning you should kill the plant, because either is sufficient for your survival.
