:: I checked it out. Its the usual small-minded, myopic bullsh_t we've all come to expect from the vacuum sealed, illformed specieists that make living on this planet a lot less enjoyable and make me ashamed to be human.

People who use the word "specieists" are manifestly ashamed to be human. But that kind of shame comes from within one's self and not from anything outside of them. Nevertheless, we get moral indictments from these types who can't see that they are either animals themselves (and not subject to morality) or they are above them in some meaningful way.

:: Its ironic that the ignorance portrayed on such websites lends support to anit-specieist arguments. It would seem that specieism is its own demise. A species that lives inside of the illusion that it is completely seperate from its enviroment; that refuses to understand that its actions have consequences that can negatively affect itself; that points to its thicker frontal to justify not having to use it; such a species not only forfeits its claim to king of the mammals, but should and WILL be taken out of commission long before its true potential is realized. Too bad.

What is the true potential of humanity, Dad?
