I meant to say my ancestors. But in all honesty I rarely eat meat, too expensive and it makes me sick sometimes, nor does it taste half as good as it used to...probably because I know how it's made now. Bison though, my mouth waters at the thought of it. |

Its not that Peter Singer's philosophy doesn't make sense, I just think he's wrong about the extent to which he takes utilitarianism. If one is going to put the pain of animals grown for food in a certain category one should also put all pain-feeling beings in that category. And pain is such a vague term that plants could easily be put in this category with their trauma-response systems. |

He mostly focuses on how modern food science is all lies and marketing used to give us more food but basically less useful food, IE quantity of quality. This is by the same dude who wrote omnivore's dilemma |

My philosophy is that War, Famine, Disease, Disasters, Overcrowded cities, Pollution, and other modern ailments are not the problem. Too many people is. I am a strong advocate of massive global die off of the human species. Obviously I hope Europe and NE are spared as well as obvious portions of each ethnicity, culture, and language |

HOWEVER humanity should have colonized the oceans a long time ago. Certain technologies, with enough funding, could have easily sustained the worlds population for shelter and food. But alas, greed and other negative attributes of humans have led to our decline, which we are ultimately witnessing as each day passes. The calling of WWIII is here. Massive population loss is over due. economic recovery wad a benefit of large scale wars in the past (wwi, WWII) but it won't work this time around. Global society is indeed doomed, as the population class chasm grows larger and larger. You're either a survivor, or you're doomed. The next two years will be a huge bridge in the develepment of our species. |

Water crisis, modern divide, corporatism, resources, it takes time. China essentially blocked anything from happening at the recent climate summit to protect their growing industrial age. Every superpower should have pledged trillions to ensure the well being of first and third world infrastructure, sustainability, and so on and so on... but they didn't, nothing happened. So, here we go. Space colonization is far off, but yeah the tech has been there, oceans should have been colonized decades ago. Sustainable ecosystems, endless water supply... anyway, there's a crunch coming, you'll get what you wish for. Conditions to facilitate evolution. Fundamentalists, greed, individual interests....they outweigh any altrusitic thing you've ever done. A species with a massive spectrum like us is fucked from the start. My band doesn't say WAR ON EARTH FOR ALL TIME because we like the sound of it. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 9,2010 11:14am - arilliusbm ""] Unity and peace is certainly not attainable with the ignorance and selfishness our species currently displays. As President Reagan boldly stated, perhaps we need a threat of an alien invasion the fully unite as a species and defend our only home. |

His self-proclaimed crush on Locke from FF3(6) is somewhat respectible, given the fact Locke saves Celes -and ultimately the world -through his elite skills in cross dressing and espionage. |
| _________________________________ [Feb 10,2010 3:29pm - martins ""] I don't think I ever said anything about Locke. Edgar was my favorite. |
