>People really do have a choice about their programming.
...not everyone that walks on 2 legs and speaks sentences is exactly a person with sapience, though. not to derail, but the biggest problem by far with mainstream religions is not only is being mainstream itself a red flag, but the flat-out refusal to acknowledge differences in species and differences in spiritual, cognitive, and emotional capabilities.
but things are as they are. animals don't have a choice about their programming, and animals have been given human rights.
