I remember a startrek movie where a steak was served to someone who asked where it came from there are no cows on the interprise and was told it was made in some ....thing I can't remember, but anyway welcome to the future my friends we have test tube babies and steak can you accept both ? and anything else that comes along like test tube body parts created to save lives ?
Godfather.
Hadn't looked at it that way but good thought. In any case, I'll stick with my mostly vegetarian real food diet- I'm not ready to join Spock, Kirk and crew!

BTW, beam me up. Im standing at the station.
Vegetarians eat things that taste like burger and its not burger? I never got that. I was reading recipes on how to make corned beef and pastrami from seitan . Im like wtf?
Thats another thing that bothers me, its okay though to reap and harvest plants which are just as sentient and part of the ecology. You cry for the trees but you do not cry for the wheat or the fruit or vegetables?
What if I reincarnated briefly as a sweet potato?
Careful SweetChildofMine, Godfather- they might start calling this "A Moving Enterprise".
-Eddie Vedder, "Smile"
wheat (and other fruits/vegetables) is an annual plant that has a fixed life cycle, is going to die anyway, and provides nourishment. without them we die.
trees can live for hundreds or even thousands of years, are sort of a time-binder with our past generations, and we don't need to cut them down.
i'd like to think that life is life is life... but if given the choice of squashing a bug and a kitten, i'm going to squash the bug and feel no guilt.
-Eddie Vedder, "Smile"
Well thats what Im getting at ....you should feel the same pain squashing the bug as you do the kitten.
Thank you for sustaining me and giving me life by giving your life.... whether it be a cow, wheat or a sweet potato.
Though, I eat meat responsibly like one/twice a month and trying to figure out vegetarian extremest. Which is fine if its your lifestyle. Im not trying to offend anyone.
I actively support ideas like "meatless mondays" for instance for people on the 7 day meat and potato cycle. I assume its like everything else moderation and responsibility.
Maybe Im just defending myself to those who say OMG she eats meat.
I do in a sustainable responsible fashion.
Im not gorging on McD's or Jack in the Box or eating steaks and pork or chicken every night.
in regards to your first sentence, HOOOEY! are you saying that you feel the same swatting a fly as you would rubbing kitten brains into the carpet? nobody (and i mean nobody) actually does, or would - hypothetically. not even Jesus. if you do or someone does my opinion is that you're full of shit.
now, is that the "ideal?" for us to come to a sort of enlightenment of consciousness that allows us to see all life as equal? maybe. what about a slime mold, a bacteria.... WHAT ABOUT A VIRUS? it is life. where do we draw the distinction? the animal kingdom? vertebrates? mammals? .... for some it is only humans that are important.
regardless, i can't understand an argument where you take the hard-line approach to saying that all life is equal, because that means you have a existential moral dilemma with eating a piece of lettuce. i don't believe it!
now, fungi, those cats have it figured out. all they do is consume dead organic matter. they don't need any living thing to survive! consider that, and the fact that spores can survive in the vaccuum of space, and that psilocybin mushrooms are OBVIOUSLY here to show us the REAL god, and i think mushrooms are aliens dude! they're super enlightened, super intelligent beings!
I do let flies go. I do not swat mosquitoes. I do not kill spiders. Is that bullshit? No.
I get upset when other people do that shit!
but,
Thats what Im asking.
Where IS the moral dilemma when you are saying all life sacred? You should have a problem eating the piece of lettuce! ! !
So then I ask then :
What is the difference if I consume the pig or the lentil?
Besides, you didnt take in consideration my thought of being thankful to the creature which is sustaining you, reguardless:
AND you did say a tree is smarter and more important because of life expectancy?
What can I say- great minds think alike!

Theory One: They like music (at least the music I play). I've proven that by watching them dance around in the living room to Neil and PJ etc.
Theory Two: They like to fly. I've proven that by repeatedly taking the same spiders out and blowing them into the air. They always come back for more-- like kids on a merry-go-round.

MOSCOW – It was an Ice Age squirrel's treasure chamber, a burrow containing fruit and seeds that had been stuck in the Siberian permafrost for over 30,000 years. From the fruit tissues, a team of Russian scientists managed to resurrect an entire plant in a pioneering experiment that paves the way for the revival of other species.
The Silene stenophylla is the oldest plant ever to be regenerated, the researchers said, and it is fertile, producing white flowers and viable seeds.
The experiment proves that permafrost serves as a natural depository for ancient life forms, said the Russian researchers, who published their findings in Tuesday's issue of "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences" of the United States.
Godfather.
some seeds can grow viable plants after 100's sitting in "limbo" years either waiting for fire or other conditions to germinate.
yea but 30,000 years in permafrost..I'd call that pretty cool, my point for that is the story also talked about other life forms being brought back to life after 30,000 or so years in permafrost,they have found atleast 2 ice age men in the frozen mountians somewhere that were in pretty good shape after being frozen for thousands of years so I'm wondering what could they do with the DNA of these frozen guy's ?
Godfather.
I know I follow the Icemen stories through national geographic, pretty awesome.
