.
alot of incects do, sharks will eat there own kind if in a feeding frenzy.
alot of preditors will eat there own young if both are staving and cats will reproccess there first litter alot in any case
Oh God yeah!..Too many.
You could argue that it is unethical to kill a sentient species for food, but then humans would have to stop eating animals to not look hypocritical. Or you could argue that it's only wrong to eat sapient species (which humans are but animals aren't).Assume that we couldn't force the alien race to stop, but rather try to convince them that it is cruel and therefore they should stop.
How would we achieve this, what arguments would we use?
Translation: I can call anyone who disagrees with me a 'globalist power-monger'.Globalist power-mongers might want you to believe there's such a "limit," but I see no such thing.
the premis is rather silly
firstly to be fit for human consumption the animal MUST be killed by trauma
secondly its illegal to kill people
thirdly i HIGHLY doubt you are going to get a griving family to sign off on you eatting there daughter who was just killed in a car crash
lastly on aliens, of course we would fight them, just as pigs would fight us if they could. I doubt you could argue that they are acting unethical unless you brought in an argument on sentience and we could run into problems based on our treatment of dolphins and pigs but ethics wouldnt really matter when it came to world goverments acting in OUR interests (and there own i might add)
I think it would be pointless farming humans for food....
15-20 years for your food to be ready for slaughter (much higher turnover in that time from cattle etc..
The amount of food you would have to feed the human cattle would be the same as what you would eat so it would be a pointless excercise....
Kurru (in the fore tribe) was caused by cannibals eating cannibals not cannibals eating humans..
so as long as you didn't feed the 'human cattle' human flesh you should be alright..

Another reason we can't eat humans. Humans eat many times their own weight, in a year, in a lifetime. So human flesh would be pointless. Not a very useful food source.
Humans are too cunning. Far too dangerous creatures to hunt, and yet incredibly docile and easy to get along with (most of us), when you don't give them a reason to have to defend themselves.
Also, doesn't eating one's own kind, more readily spread diseases? Presumably, animals and humans, often aren't susceptable to the same diseases? Isn't Mad Cow disease related to feeding cows animal flesh or something or other?
Humans have a very vested interest, in allowing the human herd to naturally grow and grow, so of course, humans must be excluded from the menu. Even common sense should tell us that. We could broaden our diet, if or as we supposedly may need to, to feed more and more human mouths, eating insects, more of the edible plants, more of the animals, just so long as humans are understandably excluded and we may eat most anything but humans.
And of course, it wouldn't be civilized. We do consider ourselves "civilized," I hope?
