I use to work in a pig slaughter and cutting plant. I use to contemplate the hanging hogs as humans, and us some aliens that farmed humans for meat. I didn't have a problem with it.

Some animals eat other animals. That is not something for us to approve of, or not. It is simply a fact of life. I dont have a problem with it because I dont see it as a moral issue.

Other animals, such as cats and lions, are obligate carnivores.
It is immoral to feed them a vegan diet.

Bad comparisons. People point to animals to show something is natural. Not moral. He confuses the issue. It isn't immoral to kill to eat. Starvation and need are not required.

Would it be immoral if someone killed you to eat you?
replied 1400d
Yes, of course. We are both human in that scenario.
replied 1401d
Yes. Humans are not allowed be eaten, according to the bible.

How would you feel if you were hanging from a meathook
replied 1400d
I use to think about it that way. What if it was an alien plant for processing human meat. It was an interesting place to work. Its good to learn where your food comes from.
replied 1400d
Yeah, you think it's okay to have humans as food for aliens, that is what you said. Yet somehow I am unhinged for not believing in your climate change nonsense?
replied 1400d
I was actually saying it's not right for humans to eat humans. Its not immoral for animals, or in that example aliens, to eat humans.

This is no way can be related to climate change.
replied 1400d
That's like saying it's okay to eat dolphins or monkeys...
replied 1399d
Not exactly. Its just saying humans eating humans is wrong, but other creatures eating humans is not a moral issue. Rules about specific animals are additional rules.
replied 1399d
Yeah if the alien is a dinosaur or some other animal on another planet, yeah that will probably eat you, but I do not think aliens eat humans.
replied 1399d
Oh, wait, are you concerned by the reference to aliens because it disrespects aliens? Is this a belief that more intelligent creatures would have a moral obligation to eachother?
replied 1399d
Stop trying to troll me Sam, aliens aren't going to eat you.
replied 1398d
Why are you treating it as a moral issue then?
replied 1400d
One is a philosophical position on the morality of meat eating, and the other is a recognition of the data on climate change. We directly measured how much added CO2 was fossil fuels.

You should look up the Swanson effect, soon solar panels will be in the KW range. Emissions won't be an issue in the future.

It is parallel to "Moore's Law" that the number of transistors on an integrated circuit doubles roughly every two years.

It's been predicted that by 2025 we will have computers that can think faster than the human brain.
replied 1399d
Sometime after that we will have a computer that makes decisions for the government. Kind of like a king, and so history will repeat again

Solar panels will never absorb more energy than the sun puts down per unit area. More likely never beyond 50% of that power per area.
