Would you choose to save the life of your pet(that you've had for years)or a stranger

[Jodi]

I wonder if it's crossed her mind how many bugs she (and others) kill when driving every day...

I hate bugs. I just don't think we are any better than any other creature out there.

Are you kidding me? What kind of dumb ass question is that? The question above is, would you save YOUR PET or a Stranger. In that case I would save my pet. If it came to an insect (NON PET, show no affection, love, hell you can't even see it )or a human, what the hell do you think?

The Bug?

 

[Jodi]

The Bug?

Smartass!

you just said: "Humans are no better than any other living creature as far as I'm concerned." so you take back that comment

 

[tucker01]

Smartass!

Oh I was serious

 

[Jodi]

How do you think that? No I don't take back that comment and I didn't contradict myself. In this stupid scenario you presented, I would save the human because I'm more apt to have an emotional connection with the stranger than a bug.

You said humans are equal to every other creature. You obviously don't truly believe that based on post #120.

If they are equal why do you pick the human over the ant? exactly, because they are not equal.

Can you read?

mike read. On a physical level she sees no difference, we are all animals. However there is more of a potential for a connection with the human, hence her decision.

 

[mike456]

then they are not equal!

So then we are not equal to a frigg'n ANT.

 

[mike456]

So then we are not equal to a frigg'n ANT.

 

[tucker01]

Why cause we can relate to our own species? Just like any other animal can?

 

[mike456]

Can you read?

yes, but you make absolutely no sense IMO

 

[Jodi]

then they are not equal!

Maybe you can understand this.....Would you save your mother or a stranger?

 

[ABCs]

I am with mikey on this one and any other person that has a sense of humanity. But hey, you guys want to pet the ants and mingle with the minos, then God bless you.

And Jodi, your question above has nothing to do with the conversation. They are both HUMANS. You know, those things known as people.. 2 legs, a couple arms, etc etc.

 

[mike456]

Maybe you can understand this.....Would you save your mother or a stranger?

Mother

 

[tucker01]

No one said they would chose the ant over a human. Well I did, but that was cause I would just let Darwin sort out the retard for walking on the tracks while listening to an MP3 player.

 

[Jodi]

Why? They are both human and equally important, so why would you save your mother over the stranger?

that is toward ABCs right?

Haha, nice job!

 

[mike456]

I never said all humans are equal to me. That is what you said.

 

[tucker01]

Yes

What your trying to get at is the emotional attachment. You are still contradicting yourself by saying all things are equal then saying you would save the human over the [insert retarded animal here]. The fact of the matter is that is ludicrous. No matter what you say or how you cut it. I value a humans life, and by the looks of this thread, alot of you don't. I would love to see if some guy was walking his dog down the street and saw one of your asses drowning or being fucking mugged and did nothing about it... and your ass got killed because that man or woman loved their ANIMAL more than a human. Then what would you say? Not much.

 

[Jodi]

I never said all humans are equal to me. That is what you said.

Oh so now you think you are better than other humans? Is that what you are saying?

You don't seem to get what I'm saying do you?

 

[DOMS]

You're changed the question. You changed it to be two humans and not a human/animal question. If it came down to two humans, I'd make a decision based on my personal preference for each. If it was a human and animal, there would be no need for comparisons. The animal would die.

 

[the nut]

How bout if it was Jodi or your pet?

You are completely morphing the subject to suit how you view things. What was originally stated doesn't compare to what you are saying here.

I wouldn't say shit, because I would be dead. BTW, I fear death not. Death is nothing more than a gateway to my next plain of existence.

I'll see you guys at the evolution bell curve.

Thank You. Some people are really slow around here. i mean, Jodi, you are a health frigg'n GENIUS. But I know now, never to take personal or humanitarian advice from you...
