Re: Poke
Very interesting and informative read. Doesn't change my perspective though. Even if it's true that plants are sentient, how is that a justification to eat animals? Whatever plants sense, I'm convinced that they don't feel pain, at least not in the same way animals do. And the intelligence they display seeks to be more like adaptation by evolution than anything else. One of the things plants have evolved to do is make animals eat them. They have made their seed pods sweet, juicy and delicious so we eat their seeds and spread them about in our auto-fertilizer packs (ie: poop). Pretty smart, eh? But more "evolutionary smart" than anything else. There are actually "fruitarians" who only eat (you guessed it) the fruit of plants. I can see their point...

I hope your not really saying that's your test, Dan. That sure opens the door to eating lots of different animals. Obviously you have other criteria as well; cows, after all are vegetarian.
