I'm not sure why this subject came up on my boards, again, today, but I reread it and realize I was talking about a different aspect of death than you were:

"Every sentient being "we" have ever killed was going to die eventually anyway. Why would you think something different happens depending on how they die?"

I agree, every thing alive will one day die, but I was talking about entire species dying out, going extinct, their mass being replaced by humans.

Reminds me of the conservation of energy.

and reincarnation. and Soylent Green. and Karma.

If all the beings on this earth are human, would you care how any of them die?? Or yourself?

Thought experiments.
