Killing is OK?

[chuff]

it's not and it will never will be ?
why mmm let me see u see if u are agree that u make Action X to another person
if u accept the action X to b applied to u then it's comfortably to do it on ur own self .
that's the rule of morale  

but you are violating this rule yourself
You eat chicken, cows and even trees
Some day (in dreams) some those can evolve into bumans (something intelligent like humans) and start eating us
Are you eating them because you are stronger and they are helpless?
I don't see why Hitler was wrong  

If nothing else, due to the Non-Aggression Principle! Hooray!
It's the eating specifically that we're talking about now, I think we've well established the scenarios in which killing is permissible, and there aren't many.

I still don't quite understand what wazzz is talking about.

It makes more sense when you drop acid.

wazz's grammar is proving difficult for me to comprehend as well.

And in a sense, if hitler had been strong enough to complete his "master race project", then it wouldn't have been "immoral", because the people who would think so would be dead, and the universe wouldn't give a rat's bum.

Aaa!

Everything makes more sense when you drop acid.

Oh, wow, look at all those pretty colors...

Aaa!

If he had completed his project the way he wanted, then all the silly "ethical" "problems" surrounding so much as a mention of the topic of race would not be problems at all.

After some thinking about this, I've come to a fairly simple conclusion.

We are forced to eat living things to survive. Any judgement on which beings to eat and which not is subjective.
I eat what I was taught to eat. That doesn't include humans.

[Asmodean]

Being omnivores, it is ok for us to eat other life forms. Personally, I don't like the idea of chewing on someone's @ss, BUT in extreme condition and under the right circumstances, I would probably do it. Would it be OK? That's a question of perspective. But would it be justified? In my eyes - absolutely.

I guess Messenger would rather be eaten than to eat. If my life depended upon it I would probably resort to cannibalism. But I wouldn't indulge in human flesh for the taste of it like this guy:

Survival of the fittest
So let's assume that after some years, the earth dried out and Chinese (As they eat almost everything) decided to make human farms to eat from them
or attack you for food
Would you start eating Chinese instead of starvation  :crazy:

Would you start eating Chinese instead of starvation  :crazy:

And what would we feed the "cattle"? This thought experiment is flawed. (not to mention racist)

We will feed them things that we don't like to eat (including our dead people)  
Criminals, Very ill people (We should not spend tax money on them), disabled people (they are not beneficial for the society), Very old (non working people), very stupid people (like George bush), etc.

...(like George bush)...

This I agree with.

If you're feeding people people you're just moving the problem along, the criminals, very ill, etc, also had to eat before they make a meal.
The problem is you can't raise a person to adulthood on just one person to eat. You're expending resources more rapidly than you can produce them.
There is a reason predators are fewer in number than their prey.

Yes, I wan to (un-naturally) select better people

Hi Hitler  

You'd fail miserably (no matter what your selection criteria), as your resource management would result in total annihilation within weeks. If there's anything your thought experiment shows it is why we are not cannibals.
