“As long as their brain stem is intact, the homeostatic functions of the chicken will continue to operate. By removing the cerebral cortex of the chicken, its sensory perceptions are removed. It can be produced in a denser condition while remaining alive, and oblivious.”
Is it then conscious? Or is it just a machine that reacts to the external environment to maintain homeostasis? I think some people will argue that it’s wrong to do this, but I’m still eating chicken.
Discontent with the article
I disagree that animals that agricultural programs raise to become food should not be considered animals.
but, other than that, I can’t say anything else, as I enjoy eating chicken… x_o
oops?
