We've been eating animals since the dawn of time and as far as I know eating other humans has never been in fashion.
We have not however been practicing artificial insemination on animals since the dawn of time. So, your argument is very poor. The slippery slope that you and matthew are attributing to fanny is not accurate. Slippery slope might be a legitimate criticism if Fanny's AI on animals were as you say something that has been occurring since the dawn of time. Instead, AI on animals is not an insignificant unrelated event that leads to a significant event like AI on humans. AI on animals is significant, novel, and scandalous. Not only that, but it better facilitates the success of implementation on humans, tangibly and intangibly. So, I see this as more of a near occasion conversation. And, catholics do not avoid sin. Catholics avoid the near occasion of sin. But, matthew censored my prior comment about near occasion. Perhaps he fears that slippery slope.
This is why I also criticize the renaissance and onwards dissection of dead human corpses. I do not care that it not the dead remains of a citizen, but instead just the remains of a foreign prisoner. That is a theosophist argument and mentality. That dead body was created by God, who is the God of all men, and whose body must be respected by way of the divine teaching that it is a corporal work of mercy to bury the dead. Your types would argue that this is slippery slope again, however we would not have what we might call this false dictatorship in healthcare without it, just like we would not have the nєω ωσrℓ∂ σr∂єr(masonic) without usury(judaism)(= ʝʊdɛօmasonry). All of these are twin sisters. And, they are near occasions of sin at the very best. These are not examples of slippery slope.
Slippery slope regards the illogical connecting of contrasting and improbably unrelated events. Slippery slope is not relevant to the conversation of proximate near occasions, which this is.
