    stolen animal secretions ethical beliefs

    Theft from animals is unethical, while theft from humans is ethical (based on his actions and your logic). From this we can extrapolate that humans aren’t animals at all.

    Thanks SBF! That clear up a lot.

      I explained this elsewhere but stealing from someone’s body is completely incongruous from using other’s funds.

        using

        You mean “stealing”, which is incongruent with autonomy in every sense. I won’t make excuses for meat eaters if you don’t make excuses for scam artists.
