Goo-the-Coward Harrison continues to run away - What should be the practical consequence of the "consideration" Goo wants us to give to animals' lives?
"Fred C. Dobbs" wrote in message m... Goo - ****wit David Harrison, The Goober - always criticizes people, mostly "animal rights activists", for not giving the lives of livestock animals what Goo feels is the proper "consideration". This shrill, harping criticism usually is found along with Goo's incoherent bull**** about "decent lives of positive value". There are always major problems with Goo's blabbering, and this one is no exception. First, Goo - ****wit David Harrison, The Goober - has never meaningfully explained what this "consideration" is, nor why it is owed, nor to whom it is owed. It is virtually a certainty that he is unable to do so. He's making a moral criticism of people on the basis of something utterly incoherent. Secondly, Goo - that's ****wit David Harrison, THE Goober - has never said what the practical consequence of this "consideration" should be. Suppose an "animal rights activist", who believes livestock animals should not exist, does a comprehensive survey of beef cattle, and reaches the conclusion: "Yep - most of them appear to me to have, for the greater part of their lives, 'decent lives of positive value'", whatever the **** that is supposed to mean. Suppose further that this "ara" /still/ thinks the human use of animals, particularly killing them in order to eat them, is inherently wrong. What then? The "ara" has given the animals all the "consideration" Goo demands - what is he supposed to /do/ once he's given the consideration? Goo - ****wit David Harrison, THE Goober - never says. Of course, it's completely obvious where Goo is trying to lead people with this horse**** "consideration" talk. He expects them to drop their opposition to livestock husbandry (Goo does not know the meaning of the word husbandry, but never mind that) and conclude that it is "good", or at least "not bad", for livestock animals to be bred into existence in order for humans to kill them and eat them. But he's given them no basis for changing their thinking. If the "ara" believes that it is inherently wrong for humans to breed animals into existence in order to kill them for our consumption, then the consideration of their "decent lives of positive value" is pointless; and if she doesn't believe that, but does believe that their treatment at the end of their lives in most cases is so bad that it *outweighs* all the goodness in their lives up to the end, then there /still/ won't be any practical consequence deriving from their "consideration". It's completely obvious that Goo - ****wit David Harrison, THE Goober - has never really moved away from his original postition from over 10 years ago: The animals that will be raised for us to eat are more than just "nothing", because they *will* be born unless something stops their lives from happening. Since that is the case, if something stops their lives from happening, whatever it is that stops it is truly "denying" them of the life they otherwise would have had. Goo/****wit - 12/09/1999 What gives you the right to want to deprive them [unborn animals] of having what life they could have? Goo/****wit - 10/12/2001 What I'm saying is unfair for the animals that *could* get to live, is for people not to consider the fact that they are only keeping these animals from being killed, by keeping them from getting to live at all. Goo/****wit - 10/19/1999 That is, Goo is *STILL* assigning some kind of interest, today, to animals that don't yet exist. He *STILL* believes that anyone who thinks no more livestock animals should exist is being "unfair" to non-existent animals; wants to "deprive" non-existent animals of something; wants to "deny" them something to which Goo feels they are entitled. In short, Goo - ****wit David Harrison - *still* believes that "aras" want to impose some "loss" on non-existent animals: Yes, it is the unborn animals that will be born if nothing prevents that from happening, that would experience the loss if their lives are prevented. Goo/****wit - 08/01/2000 Because Goo - ****wit - is embarrassed by the ridicule and derision that his absurd, publicly expressed beliefs bring down on him, he lies and says that these things he freely wrote are "mistakes" of terminology. None of these things Goo has written are mistakes of terminology - they are mistakes of Goo's thinking. His thinking and beliefs about this are based on absurdity and nonsense, and so they are irrational to the point of insanity. wait wait - is dhu goo, and goo really non-exists, or is goo pretending to be dhu, and dhu really non- exists? (where non-existence = imaginary), or.... no, i can't think of third option yet without clarification of 1 and 2.... or, clarification of what aras inherent objection to raising livestock means for _existing_ animals (as in secondly goo above) possum |

"Goo" (short for Goober) Short for Goobernicus, but even that much honesty is shocking to see you confess about your hero Goo. is a name dh originally started calling Fred, but it fits dh better so now they call each other the same name. LOL!!! It shows desperation, the fact that having no imagination Goo can't come up with anything on his own, and also an extremely childlike nature on Goo's end. It also shows blatant dishonesty which Goo is certainly known for. (where non-existence = imaginary), or.... no, i can't think of third option yet without clarification of 1 and 2.... or, clarification of what aras inherent objection to raising livestock means for _existing_ animals (as in secondly goo above) possum dh believes that AR opponents are missing out on the killer argument against vegetarians, that eating meat results in livestock animals getting to experience life, That's an aspect which must necessarily be factored in in order to get a realistic interpretation of the big picture. Misnomer advocates are OPPOSED TO people developing a realistic interpretation of the big picture, and ONLY want them to focus on things that encourage acceptance of the elimination objective. and eating vegetables doesn't, · Vegans contribute to the deaths of animals by their use of wood and paper products, electricity, roads and all types of buildings, their own diet, etc... just as everyone else does. What they try to avoid are products which provide life (and death) for farm animals, but even then they would have to avoid the following items containing animal by-products in order to be successful: tires, paper, upholstery, floor waxes, glass, water filters, rubber, fertilizer, antifreeze, ceramics, insecticides, insulation, linoleum, plastic, textiles, blood factors, collagen, heparin, insulin, solvents, biodegradable detergents, herbicides, gelatin capsules, adhesive tape, laminated wood products, plywood, paneling, wallpaper and wallpaper paste, cellophane wrap and tape, abrasives, steel ball bearings The meat industry provides life for the animals that it slaughters, and the animals live and die as a result of it as animals do in other habitats. They also depend on it for their lives as animals do in other habitats. If people consume animal products from animals they think are raised in decent ways, they will be promoting life for more such animals in the future. People who want to contribute to decent lives for livestock with their lifestyle must do it by being conscientious consumers of animal products, because they can not do it by being vegan. From the life and death of a thousand pound grass raised steer and whatever he happens to kill during his life, people get over 500 pounds of human consumable meat...that's well over 500 servings of meat. From a grass raised dairy cow people get thousands of dairy servings. Due to the influence of farm machinery, and *icides, and in the case of rice the flooding and draining of fields, one serving of soy or rice based product is likely to involve more animal deaths than hundreds of servings derived from grass raised animals. Grass raised animal products contribute to fewer wildlife deaths, better wildlife habitat, and better lives for livestock than soy or rice products. · in fact they are denying life to animals that *would exist* "we need to consider group 1, those animals who WILL exist under present rules" - "Dutch" "Because future animals who will inevitably be born are as important as ones which exist now. " - Dutch if they would just eat meat. "Every consumer choice promotes animals to experience life." - Dutch "The method of husbandry determines whether or not the life has positive or negative value to the animal." - "Dutch" One of his favorite little gems is the notion that Animal Rights is a "misnomer" because ARAs want there to be no more livestock. "The vast majority of the financial support for PeTA comes from people who do NOT subscribe to the complete elimination of animal use." - "Dutch" He's a real genius. I point out things which are significant aspects of the situation that you people are opposed to seeing pointed out, ONLY because they work against the elimination objective. |
