[Peter666]

I'm being serious... Is it even possible for an atheist to hold such views towards animals? Clearly the positions of people like Peter666 have nothing to do with logical thinking. It's simply the position that humans are "special" above all other creatures on the planet. Something about how God gave us the earth, plants, and animals, to do with what we please. In other words, it is impossible to wrong an animal. Everything on this planet is a gift from God and not only do we matter the "most", but an animal's suffering isn't even worth our simplest pleasure.

I find it very telling that had I not even known that Peter666's was a believer in God, it would have become very clear he was, after reading his views on animal suffering and abuse. Ironic how the good righteous believers in a moral God, have the coldest hearts in the face of another animal's suffering.

Hah, screw the believing in God. I am exercising my will to power, and if this includes making animals suffer, I am waiting for a legitimate argument why I should not.

A Christian knows they are subject to an objective force that will judge and punish or reward their actions. There's a reason. Atheists have offered me nothing so far. It appears they have developed an unhealthy emotional attachment to animals that is incapable of justifying itself.
