    this has nothing to do with whether there is a difference between dogs and cows, which there clearly is.

          Your point about being housebroken was shown to be wrong. Your point about fetch was shown to be wrong. No one is saying a cow is a dog. You are being deliberately obtuse to avoid the unpleasant idea that cows are just as sentient and loving as many dogs (most dog breeds are smarter than cows but some breeds are stupid). But for cultural reasons we don’t eat dogs.

          I’m not vegan either but I recognize the horror.

              They are the same in the ways that are relevant to this argument. Some dogs aren’t housebroken. Some dogs you can’t play fetch with. Do you eat those dogs?

                i didnt suggest eating any animal is ok. I’m pointing out that is simply untrue to claim there isn’t a lick of difference between cows and dogs

                  There’s a difference between different dogs too. You write like all dogs are the same. Again not all dogs play fetch or are housebroken.
