People who say that we are at the same level as animals are wrong. We speak, we use tools, we create large cities, and civilizations, and most importantly, we have the ability to kill vast amounts in the space of a few minutes.
However, just because animals are below us doesn't mean they are deserving of contempt. Animals can be companions, guardians, help for disabled people. They provide amusement, they provide sustenance, they provide jobs. Animals are still a vital part of human life, and denying that is idiotic.
And as to animal cruelty, I'm forced to ask, why? If you have a sudden sadistic urge, then go see a psychiatrist, Attacking a helpless creature is in the same league as attacking a blind, deaf, disabled elderly woman.
To hell with that.

We are not better than animals, we are just better adapted than them. Remember, 2 million years ago they were the ones eating us and we just switched it around recently.

Evolution has favored the social ability to only care about the things that are homogeneous to us in some way so using animals as our tools is perfectly acceptable.

As long as we're killing animals for our own survival(such as food, clothing....ect) then it's alright. If we're poaching them until the brink of extinction, that's where the problem is. Ivory tusks for piano keys? If someone could explain how this can be justified........

You just can't hit the right note without them.

On a more serious note, you don't need to kill an animal to get its blood. We already take blood from animals for humans all the time (other humans for example). Kill whats needed.

God will sort out the mess after.

Or Lucifer.

"Who was the most beautiful Seraph in Heaven?"
And I reply, "Seraph Michael?"
"No."
And I reply, "Seraph Samael?"
"No."
And I reply in finality; "Then surely, Seraph Seraphiel."
"No.
The most beautiful Angel in Heaven was,
Seraph Lucifer
And as He fell, His feathers departed
Thusly, were the Souls of man and woman
Tis the reason why He wishes so desperately for
His Lost Feathers... His Wings...
To fly
Back Home."

Or me.

It is all an equation for how many animals we should kill.

How much resources animals take up to what we have. How many animals we kill to their population. Lastly is demand for their "goods".

Btw, I believe that some animals raised merely for food live better than me.

I have to work, go to university, accept humiliation from those above my position in life. suffer violence and stupidity of my kind ruining a planet, get robbed maybe, work hard to get laid, strive, harm and be selfish.

A cow/chicken/turkey lives with his/her own entirely, gets free chow, no need for work, has free friends all round, doesn't see the world is full of shit. JUST WHEN it has begun to grow old, then comes the fastest way to die, without any more pain than the sum I feel in a couple of days.

Being livestock is great!
Wine in hand, in the other, Quran,
Both halal I do and haram,
In this incomplete world of a sham,
Neither Pagan I am, nor Musselman!


Omar Khayyam

Come, come, whoever you are,
Wanderer, idolater, worshipper of fire,
Come even though you have broken your vows a thousand times,
Come, and come yet again.
Ours is not a caravan of despair

Free roaming maybe, if you are a chicken locked in cage smaller then oneself (the chicken), I will beg to differ.
