Its interesting. Fruit and Veg are plants and plants are living beings also...yet people are willing to eat them because they dont show no emotion etc.

On a different note Marijuana comes from a plant and thus was a concious being. Who knows whether plants can think or not...nobody knows for certain. Its basically like saying "This Rock is not alive" how do we know? Just because it doesn't have a heart etc doesn't mean its not alive. People assume to much...and when brought up with certain points they disregard them, thinking their way is right etc or ethicly correct.

I dont have a prob with meat eaters, i dont agree with the slaughter of certain animals however and the way that they are killed. I personally believe that to be wrong, if the animal feels pain...i dont like it. But i wont give up eating something just because its hurting the animal.
