I always find animal cruelty horrible but feel a hypocrite for eating meat.
Animal cruelty isn't the same as slaughtering animals for food.

I think slashing an animals throat and letting it bleed out is pretty cruel. Anything else seems like double standards. What about killing a dog then eating it?
Killing a dog and then eating it, if the killing is isn't cruel ( where do they slash cow throats? Seems like an outdated way of slaughter ) is ok, yes.

It is outdated but its an effective method. They kill all cows and chickens etc like this. Usually hang em upside down to bleed out.

Cows and Sheep usually get a bolt gun to the head first, chickens don't. There's no bolt guns in Halal meat though, just the straight throat slash.

I always find animal cruelty horrible but feel a hypocrite for eating meat.

This is spot on! ^^

Don't compare cruel torture and killing of animal for sadistic fun with killing an animal for food.

food is a neccesity and you can say veagan all you wan't but the fact is humans need meat. Why do you think you have canine teeth? it's not for tearing a carrot apart it is for tearing flesh.
I wonder how many of you animal lovers here are vegans? Yeah, killing puppies for fun isn't nice, and people get really upset about dogs, but hypocritically usually don't mind killing other animals.
Other cultures kill animals such as dogs and cats on a daily basis...do i agree with it? No We kill cows that some people find sacred.  Besides killing for food is one thing throwing a puppy into a river serves what purpose?

Your comment makes ZERO sense.

No, it makes sense. And isn't killing an animal killing an animal regardless of intent? And maybe throwing a puppy in a river is fun and entertainment to some. Many people hunt for fun and entertainment.  Sometimes to eat sometimes not. My point only makes no sense if you're close-minded and unable to see from an impartial viewpoint. What if the guy at the slaughterhouse takes pleasure in killing or torturing the animals or just enjoys his job? Is that then wrong? I guess you take pleasure in eating them, is that wrong? I'm sure vegans could argue that you're being sadistic to condone it, but my point was that there's a certain amount of hypocrisy when it comes to what animals we do and don't eat or the way they're killed and my point still stands. I can also eat you with my teeth too, but there's a morality question involved, but vegans hold this morality to animals too. Humans have superior brains and consciences as well, vegans might argue we should use them.
Doesnt matter if the guy at the slaughter hose has fun or not...the purpose of killing there is for food. Again throwing puppies into a river serves no purpose and the comparison doesn't stand.  You say killing is killing it's not 1 is survival while the other is to satisfy an insane person.

That's your own biased opinion. Throwing puppies into a river might be entertaining just as hunting is or swatting flies. We don't need to eat meat for survival either. We're not in the wild any more. In fact, eating most meat is pretty bad for you, and there are far healthier diets available that don't involve meat.


Couldn't have said it better myself, this guy gets it. It's hard fending off these activists, phahaha.

I'm not an activist, I'm just playing Devil's Advocate, but it's only hard for morons who can't see past their own bias or see from an alternative viewpoint or make a argument, but I wouldn't expect you to make a constructive post or point anyway.
Like the ones above loaded with arguments nobody has been prepared to respond to / react to? :PpPppp

I consider all of you spammers. This is a forum, not a chatbox. 10 quoted posts are looking ridiculous. You are lucky other moderators don't think that way.
How is discussing the topic of the thread we're posting in spamming?

My favorite day of the week!  I keep throwing it back at PB though, one of these days I need to keep it! lol  Cheesy

And the price just dropped 3.5 %

New price = 0.0056 BTC/GHS

1 BTC = 179 GHS  Grin
And how many years till you get that btc back? Smiley

If it's less than five, it's all good.


Oh, Troll; nicely batted. well done sir!
Troll? Honest question, I dont know the answer.
526  Other / Off-topic / Re: Answer the question above with a question. on: April 20, 2014, 08:40:25 PM
most probably not, if it has not been solved by now it's most probably gone for eternety don't you think?

Depends I suppose, how long is eternity?
Shouldn't that be about… 10000 years?


isn't eternity infinite or unending time ?
Yeah but like, isn't 10000 years reaaaaaally long?

Infinity and undending are the same?

Are they not the same?

As there are misinformations.

48h it is not > 72h.

I understand that he have a lot of work.  Like all of us have.  But I thought that Stunna is working as a pro. Now I am not sure.

In my life when I am telling I will do something in two days it is two not more than 3 days :-)
Or if I have a delay I am informing people how long this delay will take.

This what happened this month is not professional.
It's not indeed but you can't expect everything to always be run smoothly.

I'm sure there are some "banks" around. You basically send all your money and they falsely promise interest on that money, and you'll never be able to withdraw it again. No, this is not the point of bitcoins, be your own bank. Smiley

True.
Why send your bitcoin to someone else and ask him/her to hold it for you, instead of holding the bitcoin yourself? Cheesy
To get some sort of interest. Altho all those interest / investment schemes are scams.

Slaughter houses also Use pneumatic spikes to penetrate the brain. they also use electricity,slicing the throat and some barbaric slaughter houses use sledgehammers.
Now now, sledgehammers? That seems a bit excessive.

Teenager - Oops, 1

Trying To Put Words - I never tried to put any words in your mouth. I didn't force you to believe me, or even reply to me.

There's a difference - Oh, what is it?

Proper cause - By that I mean, killing animals for sport is terrible. Did I grow up hunting? Yes. But I never laid a hand on a animal that I wanted to kill for fun.

For Animal Rights - Don't you mean, not breathing out Carbon Dioxide? I mean, there's a surplus of oxygen as long as we have plants. Hahaha.

In your post you were stating that there's a, well, let me quote it:

"There's a huge difference between killing animals that we've killed for extremely long time for food and killing domesticated animals, that have been known to show emotion and incredible personalities.

What's the difference?

Boom. 6 in a row, as you may say.
Hahahaha, trying to use my own techniques against me aint gonna work. Bolded up the parts that made me laugh the most. Smiley
The difference is that the animals we've killed for an extremely long time have been used to supply people with food. Rest assured that the drowned dog was not eaten afterwards.

Rekt.

I don't think it's 'your' techniques. I don't actually think it belongs to anybody. I never said the dogs were eaten afterwords, or hinted towards that. So as long as animals have been used for a long time, and used to supply us with food, that's basically saying that every animal is on the same level. Hundreds of countries have eaten dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and other pets for years.

Bolded up? Erm... Not going to think about that.
Aha, and they drown them before cooking them? Smiley
Go away, kid. Smiley
534  Economy / Services / Re: ★★★ HIGHEST SIGNATURE PAYMENT ON THE BOARD - NEW RATES - RitzGrandCasino.com ★★★ on: April 20, 2014, 07:55:24 PM
everyone above is confirmed.
Payments happen on the 1st of the month for the previous month. Unlike other programs, we pay you all on time every time.
We will even give you the Time you can expect to be paid by!!!
No need to enrol  every month, as it is all automatic. We always do check on posts and signatures etc. So anyone trying to scam will be caught.


The big switch is on to
Ritz signature program..
So I will not have to post my post count again?
Well, that's convenient! Tongue

Yep, no need to do anything just post constructive posts. And leave the signature as is. Cannot be easier than that.

Anyone can post in other topics. It doesn't have to be just in the gambling area.

Seen this in some other signature campaigns, posts in giveaway threads and contests are deducted from the total. Do you have that policy too?

If you're just spamming your coin address then probably not. Most giveaways are banned here now anyway.
Yes well obviously, but I was talking about all posts made in such a thread, not only entries to said competition.

Of course it's because we're using the signatures ourselves. But we are doing that for a reason, probably ( in my case at least ) because I don't see why it should bother anyone. Smiley

One word. Spam.
Spammers should be dealt with anyway. My point was not everybody spams, I'm sure you wouldn't consider yourself a spammer just because you use an advertisement in your signature, and neither do I. Disallowing everyone is a collective punishment that's not really called for, imho.

I stopped putting ads in my signature when I realized it makes me look similar to those who just spam for money. Many people would complain that they can't spam for their $50/month that they get from signature ads, but in the long run it'd be much better for bitcointalk.

BTW I get more around $100-200.

The amount isn't the point nor the topic of this thread, it's the spam that it creates.

Why not only allow Full Members + to have a signature in the first place?

Why should Members and below be blocked from having a signature because people are spamming due to signature ads?

Or maybe not allowed to have a link.

Truthfully there is no medium. Its either get half of the forum pissed, or get the other half.
Who is pissed now then? If the mods hadn't noticed a significant decrease in spam when they changed the signature rules, they would've changed it back straight away, no?

There is a slight difference but not big enough. Right now the people in this thread who are anti-ads are pretty pissed.
No offense, but that seems to be a them-problem. They actually made a change based on just 1 persons proposal, made it happen very quickly too. They don't have the right to be pissed imho.

Not one persons. A lot of mods and even theymos wanted the change.

We both know the only reason that we are against this is because we are getting paid. If I wasnt I would def be against it.
Of course it's because we're using the signatures ourselves. But we are doing that for a reason, probably ( in my case at least ) because I don't see why it should bother anyone. Smiley
