Civilized people recognize that while being higher on the food chain allows us to take their lives, there's nothing to be gained in unnecessary pain & suffering.

I would contend that 1) any pain experienced by the lobster/fish/worm during boiling/catching/killing IS necessary and 2) there is nothing to be gained by worrying about it.

While, simultaneously, there IS something to be gained by NOT worrying about it - mainly food.

I hope you don't hunt. Your position only gives ammo to the animal-rights extremists.

Also, you should seek help for your narcisissm.
