Human lives are more valuable?

[Randy]

Which of the following statements do you agree with more?

(a) Human lives are more valuable than animal lives,

or

(b) all life is precious.

 

[PGen98]

All life is precious, but we invariably value human life above animal life, it's just who we are.

(c) All life is worthless and pointless, and should be taken off the pedestal.

 

[MamaFrankie]

All life is precious but I have to confess I would save an animal life over a human life, especially that of an enemy.

 

[Smiley]

Only Sauron's The One Ring is precious. Ask Gollum if you don't believe me.

Human life is more valuable than animals. We eat animals. Also, animals in general don't live as long as humans.

There are exceptions though, to me, my dogs. To others their dogs, cats or other pets. And it depends on the human.

 

[MamaFrankie]

I don't eat animals. Vegetarian since 1996 and vegan since 2017.

Animals don't live as long as humans, true. Neither do they cause as much trouble as humans.

 

[Smiley]

I envy the animals for their short lifespan. They don't have to spend so much time suffering on this planet as humans do, not counting the lucky ones who die young.

 

[Ravenfreak]

I prefer animals to humans myself. They're innocent and certainly are much cuter than humans are. xD Plus they don't harm the environment like we do.
