>Why bothering taking care of something creepy and ugly?
Because I can sell my stag beetles for 30 bucks a pop as larvae and much more than that as adults. Even when they die I can just pin them and sell them to a collector. And that's just monetary value because its not possible to explain why a small animal is cool to a catfag
>your ancestors spent tens of thousands of years breeding the perfect pets, cats that are affectionate and keep your home free of pests and dogs which love you and protect your family when you're not around >you insist on getting some weird shit pet like a hamster or a rabbit, an ugly bug , emotionless reptile or fish, or a fucking bird
Are you a vegan too? Because that's the only way your logic on mammal consumption is consistent. Unless you want to double down like a retard and insist creatures you regard as lesser should never consume those you consider greater, which as you'll note is retarded and in defiance of nature. The mice are still frozen and dead whether you buy them or not (not that i care if you live feed)
smarter and longer lived, but archosaurs don't have souls. their brains are intelligent without consciousness. they have self recognition algorithms for practical reasons but no abstract self concept. the bird does not have spirituality, it is an input:output machine. the bird does not love, it calculates its odds of mating with a superior specimen. the bird does not feel. it merely mocks your feelings because its algorithms have determined that it will receive some survival advantage. or perhaps it's just malfunctioning and calculated that copying nearby sounds would impress potential mates. it does not have fun, it practices tactics to inflict cruelty so it may ward other creatures away from its territory and spread as much chaos as it desires. the cat is good. the bird is evil.
truth. birds are evil. you can project what you want onto them but they are purely machiavellian creatures that operate without feeling or passion. the closest thing they get to an emotion is a mockery of happiness they "feel" when they're cruel. but they are not aware of it, so you can't really call it feeling. it's like a vestigial reaction, what little is left of the soul.
Aye, birds are what you get if you had an intelligent animal with consciousness, and then pared down everything that wasn't totally necessary for survival. Birds don't build civilizations because every part of their intelligence that isn't needed went buh-bye in the name of caloric efficiency. Mostly that's the wishy washy poetic stuff and subjective experience that humans call soul. That's all fluff that requires more neurons than it's worth for a creature that doesn't build ant-like societies. A more efficient brain for a less advanced animal lacks such things. They're like NPCs, they speak without thinking, their minds appear intelligent but they are unconsciously calculating.
The only reason you think that because unlike cats birds do not have eyebrows or ability to form an emotional expression with their face and you are too stupid to associate with anything that doesn't mimic your face
Souls are an objective fact of reality, and man is the only animal that can destroy his own soul.
"Surely every religion mentions this thing that solves a problem heckin scientisterinos can't even come close to solving without talking about unproven alternate universes in your brain somehow making it random enough to be unpredictable, but still totally logical, but it's totally false where's the heckin science that proves it?"
I feel this much more with snakefags >ugly brainless thing we are programmed by millions of years of evolution to hate >not only do they care for it but they also kill mammals (superior animals and our relatives) for it
Wtf is up with that?
>ugly
still better looking than humans
>fleshy, lumpy, morphing faces
>Why bothering taking care of something....ugly?
how about people who buy deformed dogs/cats
>shit-stirring on a slow board
I SINCERELY hope you eat broken glass.
Dog owners are so stupid. Why bothering taking care of something which is as needy as a toddler, picking up the poop everytime it shits?
Cat owners are so stupid. Why bothering taking care of something that only sees you as food dispenser and spreads toxo?
Dogs have human souls and can truly love you, not just worship you. Cats are too retarded for love but are trying their best.
only huskies and border collies have human souls
labs and pitbulls have american souls
It's funny that north americans and southern americans live in your head rent free.
The point is that one could find a flaw everywhere if one tries hard enough. It's stupid. Enjoy your animal, whatever species it might be.
beekeeping is based
farming springtails (formerly considered insects) for terrariums and ecospheres is also based

I’m a cat owner and I think beetles are pretty cool.
These boys are eye-catching.
Post larvae, beetle babies are cool

Explain yourself
>Explain yourself
Because I like them
I don't feel as much guilt if i accidentally mistreat a reptile and their deaths are less traumatic
and they're fucking adorable
especially snakes

Wrong board

Can't there be a religion board where folks like you can talk about God all day?
The problem is people there know what they're talking about so these retards have to shit up other boards.
Wauf fags actually think the church knows what canon is and doesn't manipulate the holy books to political ends
I will make them superior pets for the future generations just like they made dogs for us
You can't tell me she isn't cute and cool gay.
I feel this much more with snakefags
>ugly brainless thing we are programmed by millions of years of evolution to hate

Wtf is up with that?
What about tarantula owners?
PETA would defend that satanic demon spawn. Like really how is that thing even good? contributes nothing to the ecosystem
NFT : no fucking thanks
>spiderbros not based

Spiders are cool if they are not larger than quarter, after that they become horrors walking on earth.
>crabs dont count, because they are too cool
It's literally got red fucking eyes. How could anyone keep this.
>Why bothering taking care of something creepy and ugly?
Idk maybe we should ask yo momma
keep simping for these eldritch abominations while I keep my cat safe at home.
>cat
>not creepy and ugly
yawn
>posts sick looking iridescent tiger beetle
What did he mean by this?
>Complains about the animals other people likes
>Traps his cat at home
Like pottery
Just look at those cool ass mandibles. Theres also the fact that you don't have to think about getting them castrated or retarded shit like that.
Average people don't use pets like that anymore. They're just untrained toddlers that die before you in your arms now.
nice bait, those are obviously super cool pics
