| Are pets as important as people? Posted: 1/1/2006 5:01:05 PM | Please ask logical questions if you must ask them. You know this scenario is flatout ridiculous, and as such, deserves no answer at all. You are only asking in order to fight.
Its plenty logical are pets as important as people i gave a example of how they are not and cannot replace the love of a human being | |

How do you know they don't?
Hold up now. How do I know that people don't protect their children? I said they should. Maybe you can rephrase the question? | |

Ok, how's this: How do you know people who love their animals don't also protect their children as a hen does her chicks?
Perhaps they do. Perhaps they view both animals and children as important pieces of their lives and love them both and can't envision life without either. I really don't see how this would be wrong. | |

| Are pets as important as people? Posted: 1/1/2006 5:15:54 PM | I have responded to exactly what you are asking again... post #465.. this is not about "replacing" love of a mother to child, like I said, you aren't getting it. And that's ok. I just choose not to debate this with you anymore.  | |

I agree joesch, it would be very sad to choose the pet instead of your natural born child. I know animals are a gift but people who view animals and humans the same way should at least guard their child much like a hen does her chicks.
If you are an animal lover you would provide security to your pet. Now why would you put your pets value at the same level as a human being such as your own life? Yes pets are important but not as important as your own life. That was the point I have been trying to make for at least a month here. And yet there have been very few to agree on this. They would rather ignore that question of value and say I would rather have my pet instead of trusting in a human. Well that is life as we know it you have to love a persons good qualities and try to ignore the bad qualities.
Yes animals have good qualities, and domesticated animals have gained our trust. Who we thank for this gift is our own matter to decide. If you choose to value your pets life equal to your own then that is your choice but it doesn't make it the right one. | |

| Are pets as important as people? Posted: 1/1/2006 5:22:06 PM | That is why i say she is basterdising what her profile is inflicting
Do you assume that because I have an angel pic in my profile or that I stated in my profile that I am Catholic...that I am religious? If so, don't EVER make assumptions...to do so, can lead you into a lot of trouble...on life's highway.
I consider myself to be spiritual...yes. But, that does not necessarily mean that I want to read a bible or any such thing. Your religious beliefs do not make your statements any less feasible....so give it up on the sermons ok?
Edit: Thank you AI03 (mess. #475) | |

then that is your choice but it doesn't make it the right one.
and whatever your choice is doesn't make it the right one either. No one appointed you "god over humanity" and the only person with the 'right' opinion.
Long ago in this thread someone commented to you, 'let's agree to disagree'. It's still the same comment, isn't it?
You know what they say: Opinions are like as*holes. They're only good for the person they're on. So, you have your opinion and I have mine. Done. | |

| Are pets as important as people? Posted: 1/1/2006 5:24:35 PM | How do you know people who love their animals don't also protect their children as a hen does her chicks?
Well first off hens don't have pets, but they do try to protect their own kind with their life. I would hope animal lovers would do the same by protecting their own kind first and foremost. I am an animal lover but my own kind being humans...comes first. | |

| Are pets as important as people? Posted: 1/1/2006 5:27:33 PM | | That is because you cannot debate it,there is no debate,you stated you can only get unconditional love from a pet how silly that sounds to me,and yes i have a dog that i love very much,but hie unconditional love does not outwiegh that of my mothers nor can it,it is totally impossible,and the reason you wont argue is simple because although there is truth to your statement there is also truth to mine,and i will tell you something and believe this because i am gonna put it to you this way A103 if i had to choose between the life of my dog and your life (the dog would go)i wonder are pets as important as people | |

| Are pets as important as people? Posted: 1/1/2006 5:34:49 PM | Oh so hens have pets? Can we agree on hens not having pets. I was just stating the obvious there. I wasn't trying to throw anyone off there. Can we agree that humans should be protected first and foremost... I just thought that is the reason people have guard dogs in the first place, silly me. Ok we can't agree people should be protected first and foremost, *sigh*
Oh I spoke too soon, glad I got my question answered. Feeling the love. | |

| Are pets as important as people? Posted: 1/1/2006 5:36:21 PM | hmm..I dont know about that..I could harm a human being before I could harm an animal...
As for mothers love..My pug never talks back to me..never asks to use my car..never asks for money to put gas in MY car or spend on god knows what, he never goes anywhere without me knowing, eats everything on his plate, he gives me all his love and affection back.
My girls talk back, dont call when I ask them to,dont clean up after themselves,have a problem with doing pretty much anything I ask, and they often accuse me of loving my pug more then them..and you know what.....Sometimes they are absoulutly right!! | |

| Are pets as important as people? Posted: 1/1/2006 5:43:17 PM | now you guys know i just lost my dog thursday night, and after reading the posts after mine, i'm getting the feeling that most of you don't get it. this is an opinion thread. it's what's important to me, or you. in my opinion, my pet, is as important to me as most humans are. i would save her life, before i would a lot of people. that's my opinion. it's not right, wrong,or even up for debate. now you guys want to start to argue religion, well that's another topic, but this thread is for opinions, not judgements. after all, who are we to judge?
ai, you're not wrong, so don't give up. | |

| Are pets as important as people? Posted: 1/1/2006 5:45:28 PM | Sometimes girls don't know the value of being a mother till they are one. Animals need to know who the boss is or else they will walk all over you, if anyone has seen the dog whisperer show they would understand that statement. As for your children that can work the same way. Children need to know the value of the dollar and how to earn what they get so they can be a success in life. Animals are natural workers and they love to play. People tend to get lazy. Is it cats or dogs that never know when to stop eating? Most animals eat to live whereas people live to eat.
"now you guys want to start to argue religion, well that's another topic, but this thread is for opinions, not judgements. after all, who are we to judge?"
I have stopped arguing about the logic of religion a few pages ago. Been going on pure common sence regarding a mothers unconditional love for her children. | |
