    We know for a fact that animals think and feel, even if not on our level, and we still have no qualms about eating them.

    Who’s ‘we’ here, because I have plenty of qualms with eating animals.

        That noise the human makes when you put them in boiling water is just air escaping.

          Also the Human is, like plants, a colony of specialized living beings, cells, which comunicate each with others in chemical and electrical way. We all have the same ancestor, the first replicant cell at the beginning of life on earth. Each one evolving individually or in colonies to adapt as best as possible to their corresponding environments. We share a large part of our DNA with a potato (some more than others)
