Re: No challenge in religion
[ QUOTE ]
If in the near future, a drug was invented that stimulated brain activity in animals, and a monkey could think equally to a human in every aspect, should they have rights the same as us? Should killing a cow (smart one) be considered murder? If so, would the death penalty be aplied? (is the death penalty even correct to apply in human->human murders?) What about artificial inteligente in robots, some day they may grow a conscience (plausable theory, and not so far off into the future as people might think).. what whould THEIR rights me?
more interesting questions than regligion

Hmmm, interesting question, but not as intersting as the thing religion points to because the thing religion points to already contains everything. Anyways, what would their rights be? They would have to challenge our authority as humans at the top of tha mutha effin food chain before they got a say. Now if we are good humans and we appreciate all the goods the Universe supplies, we won't take more than we need. But we are scheming, deceptive, power hungry humans so we will not give anything rights that can't kick our ass. So what if a cow can talk, it can't kick my ass. That type of thinking will happen until humans realize that we're all made out of the same stuff and see that there is One, which all relates back to the thing religion points to anyways.
