The problem with the should is that it's all relative. Not being submitted to our creator would be heavily disputed by a Catholic for example (who would also speak in favor of the creature nevertheless). Plus, there will be some cynics that won't think being sentient gives an automatic right to life.

*Is very flattered to have been missed* Heya Jill, I missed you too! *smooches you back* Usually this place gives a headache (for obvious reasons which I'm not gonna start on...), but I was lurking around out of curiosity to see what had become of the place lately and your thread tempted me back in
Yes, I suppose there are plenty of people out there who'd deny that sentience in a being gives it certain rights. This is pretty much the root of the whole pro/anti abortion rights debate too, as far as I can tell. I'm not sure if we should open that can of worms in here though... *hides the can-opener quickly* Eep!
