Do you have any evidence/sources to backup your claims? The feeling of pain is the most important feeling, as it keeps you from doing stupid things and die. I am sure all those insects feel immense pain when they die, as the pain is there trying to persuade them away from death. | ||

I am sure all those insects feel immense pain when they die, as the pain is there trying to persuade them away from death. that is entirely misguided and based on philosophical crap with no scientific basis behind it. the reason we feel pain is due to our nervous system being able to turn chemical signals into physical ones. invertebrates have a nervous system that pales in comparison; they have no spine obviously. so to personify their "feeling" to anymore more than basic survival instinct is foolish | ||

But pretty much forcing a living thing to die for no reason other than amusement is generally seen as wrong by most cultures... | ||
