Explain, how exactly is an apple alive?

That's actually a quote from somewhere else.

However, with regards to alive. If you were to plant an apple theoretically you could get an apple tree, right? It's sort of a weird comparison because plants and animals have different concepts of death. At what point is a plant considered "dead" and so on. It's rather obvious with an animal, death occurs when it stops moving. With a plant when does death occur? When the apple is cut off? When it rots? When you cut the apple in half?

Probably a better example would be bean sprouts.

You know, I've wondered how many chickens' deaths have fed me. And on other occasions, I've tried to think of all the truly non-living things that are consumed (I could only really think of water). Whether through necessity or gluttony, a fact of life is that life feeds on life....there's really no way around it.

If I could live off of eating pussy, there'd be a loooooot of trembling legs.

A better question is, who cares? Animals aren't plants. Otherwise, you could extend your argument to bacteria and other single celled organisms. You kill things from breathing alone...

I certainly don't, I just say that to mess with them.

That said, it would be both hilarious and sad to see someone petitioning for bacteria's rights.

senzait, stop getting all butthurt. I didn't ridicule your joke or insult your intelligence in my first post, I thought you were being serious I had a raised eyebrow reaction. The rest of the post was directed at you and was completely civil. The second post I make a joke about your joke not being funny after you've repeatedly called me stupid. That's all. Chill out.

I actually had the part written about how your post implies a connection between manliness and morality but I deleted it, there's no point I'm not enjoying this and don't want to continue this back and forth.
