So please, define nature.
You're the one that thinks we are separate. So define it and then tell me why.
This bit.
Nature just IS. In my opinion, it's everything that was here, before we started plonking towers everywhere.
HOWEVER,
since we are/were born of nature, and we're part of it, its offspring, you could argue that the brand new housing estate down the road is nature. But you'd need to chase it into the ground...
And you are the one who thinks we arent.
So, for the third time, please define nature.
Do they need to then?
Do we?
I am not sure about that.
Males in mating season of various species often maim and kill one another, as an example.....
I'm pretty sure that humans are clever than, for example, cows.
Do you have to even think about that?
This is probably the fundamnetal difference between other animals and humans....
They generally do what they need to do, humans go further.......
Dumb Animals shit, have sex, eat, sleep and die. Hardly a fulfilling lifestyle, wouldnt you say?
You're the one that brought it up. YOU define it.
What a stupid comment. Like you can apply concepts like "lifestyle" to animals.
So let me get this right. A more fulfilling lifestyle is to get up, eat, go to work, eat, have sex, go to sleep?
Yeah, then I asked you to define it. So go on, answer my question, then I will answer yours.
Good point, animals are too brainless to have lifestyles.
Perhaps, if your occupation is an artist, you will paint a masterwork. Or if you are a writer, you will write a novel.
Humans are constantly learning and improving themselves.
Animals dont, they are instinctive, which makes them inferior creatures.
No, you're dodging the issue. You brought it up, you define it.
Another daft comment. Inferior how? Surely inferior is a human concept, so it can't apply to animals.
I suppose it's okay to murder, use or abuse the mentally disabled amongst us Matadore, is it not? Clearly they're just dumb beings only being able to eat, shit and sleep...
Some Humans are too brainless to realise that "lifestyles" don't actually matter one jot.
Some don't even realise that a "Human Being" is just another animal.
Evolution doesn't mean improvment, it means adaptation.
My point is that animals do "need" occupations. We don't "need" them either.
All we "need" is food, shelter and the means to reproduce.
Last time, answer my question.
Of course it can, part of being human is being able to judge things, and as such I would define animals as an inferior form of life.
Instinct, which is light years behind human language and communication.
The mentally disabled are human beings, just like the rest of us. Surely you dont need me to tell you that?
You obviously don't pay enough attention to just what disgusting creatures foxes really are then.
Foxes will quite happily torture and kill and entire coop of chickens, and not eat a single one.
And, um, that's it.
For the record, it'd be amusing to put you in a lion's den and see who was more "inferior":)
Rustle up some lion heads to hang on top of my mantle piece.
Only if you designed and built it yourself, and mined your own bullets.
Cats? :yes:
