A bunch of malarkey.

Of course, I am a Psych major, what do I know?

I wanted to answer the question when I clicked the thread... I would SO eat my pet cat if it came down to it! It would be barbecued and slathered in Big Daddy's BBQ sauce, but I'd eat that cocksucker! I don't think I could eat my dogs.

Well that depends on the circumstances. If I was starving, yes I would. Having said that I'm sure at some point in my marriage I've eaten some of the neighbors cats.

I could if it was a poodle.

Interesting. According to this test my responses to morallity are not based on emotional responses. To wit, it did not bother me that the lady ate her cat nor would it bother me to watch her eat said cat. On the other hand I saw no one being harmed by a brother and sister having sex (per the scenario) but that I did find the behavior morally objectionable.
