    What have you ever done for me?

    Yet I don’t eat you because I have compassion for other living beings.

      I’d be glad to replace your phone screen, wash your dishes, or replace your tires. But you never asked me.

      Can a cow do any of those things? No.

        Here’s me asking you to build a rocket for me to fly me to the moon. If you do that I’ll take back what I said earlier.

        You’re drawing the arbitrary line between life and death by… skills? I don’t need you to replace my phone screen, wash my dishes or replace my tires. I can replace my phone screen myself, wash my dishes myself and don’t drive. Your skills mean nothing to me, yet I still don’t find it justified to kill and eat you for that.

          Cow says you don’t need a rocket to the moon in the first place.

          What, are you scared of cows?
