To Memorandum, I actually thought you were one of the people on here who had a brain, but this thread and your ridiculous, attention seeking views have proven otherwise.

If a cat makes a very loud scream and runs away (which is what a kicked cat does) then i'm pretty sure it's expressing it's feelings that it doesn't like to be kicked. And it's his right not to be kicked.

Yes, that is perception. Why is it that my perception should be considered wrong and someone else's opposing perception considered right?

What is the relationship between morality and law? The law states that it 'is' illegal to do something, it does not follow that we therefore 'ought' not to do it. For instance if the law was that we had to have compulsory euthanasia at 65, it would not follow that it was right.

The majority says its wrong, therefore it is wrong. Does this mean back when blacks were in slavery that it was right?

Learned / innate morals and behaviours + social expectations.
Them's the reasons.

So by your way of thinking, if you were in front of me then there is no reason why I shouldn't kick you. I'll bear that in mind.

To Chr1s:
But why were you upset at him for chasing your cat?
Why shouldn't the cat be chased?
Do you ever actually answer the questions that are posed?

Well the cat looking like it should be kicked is a matter of opinion, of which you might be biased as maybe you want to kick the cat. Added to that, the cat probably doesn't want to be kicked and you're infringing the rights of the cats by kicking it as well as breaking the cruelty to animals law. Society will look down on you if you kick that cat and you shall suffer the eyes of those who know you kicked the cat.
Enough reasons?

If you actually believe this then you are a complete moron. If I ever caught you kicking my cat then I'd probably beat you to death. I shouted at some kid once and made him run off crying just for chasing my cat.
