Okay, okay. But does that have to do with morality at all? People engage in risky endeavors for fun all the time.

Okay yeah thats a good point.
But if we're talking about morality I think a human would be the most immoral thing to eat out of all the things that are considered edible. I mean think about how many people are vegetarian or won't even touch something made with animal products because its "inhumane". So by that logic you can imagine how even more inhumane it would be to eat someone of your same species.

Goddamnit Dominic why are you making me debate cannibalism on my birthday

Ah but doesn't that have to do with the stealing of a life? If the person was eaten by will or only partially and saved that would deflect such a problem.

Okay but what about veganism? Chickens don't die to lay eggs. Bees don't die to make money. Sheep aren't killed for their wool.

Point. But the eggs are stolen, so I think my point still stands unless you know of another reason that prompts vegans to act as they do.

Uh I think "stolen" is a little harsh. What else are the chickens gonna do with unfertilized eggs?

Well the point is that they are supposed to be fertilized. And if their not it's probably because humans interfered. But I eat fertilized eggs all the time. And without all that. I still would say stolen as we aren't exactly being nice and asking permission.

Odd conversation, eh?

Why do you say they're supposed to be fertilized? It's not always due to human interference. (This next part might be gross for some, but) I'd like to point out the infertalized eggs that a hen will lay is the equivalent of a human period. In human and hens, if the egg isn't fertilized (aka if neither are impregnated) the bodies will dispose of the egg, because pregnancy didn't occur. Eggs are just chicken periods. The hens got rid of them on purpose. It's a natural process that occurs without human interaction. I hardly think it's considered stealing to take something their bodies purposely disposed of.
(Correct me if any information is wrong, I didn't google hen anatomy prior to this, but I'm pretty sure I'm not far off)

I guess you have a point here. But in the spring/summer, they're programmed to be hatching eggs.
Nice talk though.

Okay but honey is technically stolen but the bees actually benefit from beekeepers taking it because they make too much honey. We've all seen the Bee Movie people.

Do they though? Because when a beekeeper takes the honey (to my knowledge) the bees must be fed with sugar water to last through the winter.
