Right and how long does a species get to breed without any food? None... THey eat other species to be able to do that.
As for your "the purpose of all life is to have fun", give me a break. This is same ultra human, detached from nature perspective I was talking about. There is no "fun" in the wild. Wild animals live to survive, it's a constant battle against hunger, disease, the elements, and predators. The only reason humans and perhaps domesticated animals can live to have fun is because we have so thoroughly overcome that need, at least in the western world.
"Having fun" is not a purpose, it's a selfish desire. The only purpose of any thing is like I said, to serve as part of the planets ecology. To balance out the earth. Spiders exist only to balance out the other insects, which in turn serve their purpose. I'm sorry but it's all a lot harsher and colder then your Disney view that all animals exist to run about in fields laughing with their brothers and sisters.
No... I don't think you read what I wrote. I think you think meat eating is wrong all together, which is infact what you believe. The farming thing was merely meant to illustrate how it's impossible for us to attack your position on hunting without bringing your views on vegetarianism into the mix. |
Like I said previous, I make my judgements not from Disney characters. I live in the woods, I observe nature everyday, whether it be chickadees, bears, deer, or whatever.
Yes, animals have to live to survive, and it is a dog eat dog world out there so to speak. But there is fun and happiness mixed into it (and thats what I believe the animals really do live for). You would actually be able to tell that if you whatched nature long enough like I have.
If you say that the jobs of animals/humans are the 'balance out the earth' you do realize we are doing an awful job at it, and hunting is not helping.
Sure, bring my vegetarian views into the mix. It would be very interesting.
