Comment on Rabbit Crushers Go Free: “Animal Torture is Legal in China” by Anonymous:

not so much. It’s not about whether these things are classified as living or nonliving, but whether they can be classified as suffering or non-suffering.

Animals are similar enough to us in construction that it is fairly safe to assume that they experience suffering in a similar way to what we do. Since plants are so different, we don’t have so much evidence that we are causing a similar kind of suffering experience by eating them instead.

We don’t know much about what a plant experiences, or if it has any kind of experience at all so we still have a lot to learn about in that regard to know if it is really better to eat plants.

With our current set of knowledge though, to choose the route that shows less evidence of suffering is the better choice.

Photosynthesis is the goal! ^^

Poor sun, he’s dying and we’re using up all his energy… ^^; At least there we aren’t causing it to happen just feeding on the results.
