If IQ measured the depth of emotional understanding, then yes. You don't have to like it, just find another reason to argue against eating people - there are plenty.
- DoreenMichele 9y agoPlenty of very smart people have terrible social and emotional intelligence. So, I don't think so.
- woodman 9y agoIt really doesn't matter, because the rationale you provided was essentially: it is wrong because I don't like it. To keep with your utilitarian line of thinking, a position against cannibalism based on disease transmission would make more sense. Personally, I prefer the classic argument of it being the ultimate violation of personal space - but that is likely because I favor Locke's theory of property and the mixing of labor.
- DoreenMichele 9y agoAh. No. To be clear: this line of reasoning is simply not my cup of tea and I feel zero need to take it seriously or justify my preference. To each his own.
