But who gives a f*ck about that, honestly?

I do.

I am very fair and equal to animals. I will happily butcher and BBQ all of the tasty ones and a few of the not so tasty ones.

I have an urge to respond to this statement with something alone the lines of, "Shutup, whale raper!" But I really don't care enough to.

It takes a pretty big dick to rape a whale.

I only eat tasty animals.

as for treating them nicely, I only like the cute animals. Sadly, the ugly amimals have to fend for themselves.

No, we generally are not fair to animals at all.

or other people for that matter

but hey, who said life is supposed to be fair?

as for fair treatment of people, it's similar to the animal kingdom. The better looking people tend to get the fairer treatment. Just as the better looking animals tend to get better treatment (Koala bears, Panda bears etc)

Why do we are so irrationally afraid of Spider?
Is that some kinds of a fear coming from our unconscious? Is this genetics?

Man, even If I'm not afraid of spider... The picture of the 6inch spider is enought to make feel some fear about him...

Something is wrong with spiders... throw rocks at them!

"The tendency of Europeans and their descendants to be fearful of spiders does not seem to be shared by people in many non-European cultures, and this is not consistent with those evolutionary accounts of spider fear which suggest that spider fear should be a common feature of the human gene pool regardless of culture (e.g. Seligman, 1971). However, it is consistent with the present thesis which argues that spider fear developed as a result of the association between spiders and disease in Europe after the tenth century." In other words, arachnophobia began as misplaced fear during the plague (having historical basis), then was passed down through European families adding a cultural basis.

Anyone who wants to be treated "fairly" themselves, in effect.

Because they lack this thing called conscience.

You get pretty much the same treatment I guess, you know, fending for yourself.

Its genetic. Some spiders can kill you, so you are programmed to be affraid of it even if you dont know what it is, just like snakes and so on. Take a domestic monkey that never seen a snake before, show one to it and it'll run away instinctivly.
