RE: He's probably confused from an earlier posting in which I did touch on the moral distinctions between self-aware ... I do not consider you a glob of incoherent thoughts, thus I consider your line of reasoning from post to post. You have used self-aware as a test of humanity, and then you equate killing kittens to killing babies. That is, you suggest that both are tragic, but you see no difference between the two (or at least you did not offer any thoughts as to the moral difference between the two). Once you step onto this slippery slope, any attempt to place boundaries between meaningful life (kittens and babies) and irrelevant life (smallpox etc.) is completely arbitrary. Have you ever considered your philosophical positions to their logical conclusions?
