Making Your Entertainment More Rational and Less Selfish
Since we are human animal, I believe, entertainment is
indispensable to make us even more human, more integrated into
the human society. But again, human being is bounded with
rationalism, creativity, problems to be settled, focus and most
of all humanity. From the aforesaid principles; rationalism,
creativities, problems to be settled, focus and humanity, human
shall not be ignorant to even their entertainment, which is one
of the fundamental rights or I would say, the natural rights of
human being. But everything should be in the human context.
The purpose of this essay is to depict an entertainment that I
think are too selfish and too inhuman. This entertainment that I
depict as "too selfish" and "too inhuman" is FISHING. I will
take very simple approaches for our considerations over this
issue, but philosophical, legal grounds will be taken into
accounted.
I claim that I do eat fish and I do like fish to any other
animal, but what I do is necessary, I eat fish so that I can
live (filling my physiological needs, which is the most
fundamental), but I don't entertain my self by killing or
wounding fish, because I don't thing this is a "must", I can
escape from it, and enjoy myself with another kind of
entertainment.
I. One's Life is not just for another's Flashlight Entertainment
Regarding to the concept of humanity, we will definitely can't
seek any rational to defense that fishing is human-like. I once
heard a phrase "animals are people too". This phrase in a very
simplistic denotation, means that animal do have hurting-sense
and the sense to survive in their own worlds. Many times, after
questioning many people; "what do you like dong?", the answers
are mostly fishing.
The idea of debating (through this article) that fishing is an
inhuman form of entertainment comes after I went fishing with my
immediate relatives. I do not contradict to fishing as
government's business, daily earning of the ordinary people and
fish for the daily protein for human kind, but I strongly
contradict to the idea of fishing as an entertainment.
Entertainment should not be war-like entertainment. I seem to
too irrational and even stupid that just a form of entertainment
of a person kills other lives (just for funs). I see with my own
eyes that people insert the fishing into the fish barbs, those
people feel that the fish do not hurt. Fishing is all about
"killing". In order to kill a fish, another animal's life has to
be killed, which is the worm or any other living creature.
People have choices to make funs, but please and please make
your funs more rational, more beneficial to the good of many,
make your funs be not the grounds for another's misery.
II. Fishing Leads to Easier Violence Commitment
I may trying to debate though this article that fishing is
another kind of violence, the world has experienced too much
trauma, and the most brutal trauma is annihilation. Not body
want this trauma to happen again, but fishing as the form of
entertainment is, I thing, another form of killing living being.
The concept to fell disgust with killing, blood, conflict should
start very young, to make the most fundamental principle (peace)
of the world's biggest family, United Nations be more likely to
achieve.
III. Conclusion
The very basic and jargon that I want to raise again and again
is "living being has the right to existence", and from this we
can draw the analogy that every living being is free from being
slave of another. You are playing with fish's life means that
you are making fish your slave, which is contradict to the
Cambodian, regional, global and international law, but Cambodia,
particularly the schools never teach students about such an
illegal conduct.
I need another debate to prove that "fishing is rational", so it
would proceed my endeavor against "fishing" further.
