- waynecochran 3y agoNo. Creation groans. The innocent suffer the effects. The Innocent One suffered.
- JackFr 3y agoMaybe your empathy towards caterpillars says more about you than it does the caterpillars. It’s difficult for me to imagine being a caterpillar let alone a paralyzed caterpillar being devoured from within. Why is there any more or less moral weight to the wasps lifecycle than any other predator along the food chain?
- utkarsh858 3y agoYes they have free will but it is covered to the extent that it mostly acts mechanically. In its current life it may not have the intelligence to act morally. But once( before it became a caterpillar ) it had a body of moral sentiment being with power of discrimination. It made bad choices at that time and thus induced suffering in current life.
