"Animals, such as our selves, do. It desire to die. We all have a strong will to live."

I think there was a typo in here, but ya, exactly.

In my mind it really comes down to not being biased by species. There is still "suffering" (and pain terror devastation etc) that exists. It's just processed in a little bit of a different than human way. And why would you want to cause that?

Great post.
