Would you kill Hitler ?
So it seems clear, that the question is not WOULD one kill.. Rather .. WHY..
The leap of logic is so long that it stops being logical
You're taking that out of context.. The rest of my post explains that the trade is continuous..
and that EVERYONE does their share of "killing" because the beginning of life, somewhere along the lines, requires consumption of "living resources"..
If we look at the mothers and child relationships..
Women who have more children usually live shorter lives on average than those who have less..
So when you count this up.. Children consume living hours of the mother..
The TERM killing is not so distinctly defined in this discussion..
Absolutely there should be no Point-less killing..
But when you kill and eat fried chicken.. Killing is an energy conversion process..
SO my point is referring to this "conversion process"..
And I attempted to highlight that it's arbitrary to quantify " 1 " life..
From the other thread. all of a single human's productive lifespan is worth ~10,000 chickens in calories
