Does Fishing Hurt The Fish?

Post by Imperial »

I don't know anymore, there's no straight answer on the internet. Of course PETA says it does, but PETA says anything to do with animals hurts them...

Is this a joke? You could do some research on what nerves are.

Can you answer a question? I asked if it was a joke. You could've said "no." You come here and call us all idiots and irrational, so I suspected that this may have been a post to imply what you'd already said. U r nice too. LOL.

Actually i called Gman said name because he thinks i believe we spawned from mud.. which is ridiculous. And i posted this before the Atheist thread went up - before i called anyone irrational. And ya, like i said in quote, i don't care anymore about arguing since there's no possible way to make everyone happy. Not wanting to argue = Nice ;)

You trust PETA then?

Is that where you place your faith in - the claims of PETA?

You claim that atheists don't believe in God and that atheists don't believe that we evolved from inorganic matter...

Please tell me then, what are the other options??? If God didn't do it and nature didn't do it then what is left? E.T.?

Then who made E.T. ? Where would that even come from?

Ok people lets use some intelligence to figure this one out. Has it ever occured to you that you don't HAVE to believe or even involve your life in making origin theories? I really don't CARE how we're here anymore. No one can prove anything about it, it's pointless to waste time on the subject. All i see in you are people who think they know the answer to somthing unprovable, and that's fine, i DONT CARE.

^ thats what i """believe""". I highly doubt my quality of life will be weakened because i don't care about origin. Especially since im not a homosexual :P so you people blind yet discriminating people can't even get to me there.

This is using our intelligence? Sweeping it under the carpet and pretend that origins didn't occur?

In other words, you have to except it on faith...

Even if you take away origins you still have nothing... You have nada. Just a belief.. ;)

Okay Gman, concerning origins of species - I think we have here evidence that certain ape species are NOW evolving into cage wrestlers and ultimate fighters!

Do you need to state everything you feel Imperial?

Re: homosexual, I'm not sure of the relevant. Why did you need to make a point about not being homosexual? It seems you've implicitly made more of a discriminatory issue out of being homosexual than any Christians here.

It does cause them pain, yet they are of a lower conciousness than we are. Maybe they do not suffer as much as we do.

Either way, the world is not perfect and suffering will occur.
Am I an Atheist? Not really.

Am I a Christian? I'd be lying if I said I were.

The truth is I don't consider myself to belong to any isms, ists or anities. Questions to the mysteries of life I can only say I do not know. Yet through insight I set out to cure my ignorance.

Question: Does a fish feel pain when another bigger fish eats it?
