      <![CDATA[Wow, I thought intelligent people read The Stranger. Apparently not since hardly any of you seem to realize that animals have at least as much intelligence as small human children (of course that is an anthropocentric view of intelligence) and yet you brag about being omnivorous? Would you murder innocent human children? I doubt it. Therefore you are practitioners of speciesism. Your bias towards the human species is apparent and your hypocrisy should make you feel ashamed.

Yeah, sure you will.  You'll still shop at WallyMart and doom America even though you know they still cook dogs and use their fur for clothing.

      <![CDATA[@11, 12, 14: No, you're certainly right that people do have this instinct, and I'm pretty aware of it. But I guess what I was trying to say is that I don't understand it, and that I find it hypocritical of fur activists, who seem to be all about morality and compassion, will still mete it out according to a ranking system. <br />
<br />
But Julie in Chicago, you make a good point; as long as it stops all animals from unnecessary suffering, it's really an unimportant detail. But it's sad that people have to rely on vague instincts rather than rationale when it comes to something as important as life.
