Curiosity -“I’m sorry, but your statements are not in line with Torah thought.”
Actually your line isn’t in jist with the Torah, as I’ll explain. I did somewhat agree with your OP, but now you’re getting out of line.
“As difficult as it is to understand, even the most vile, lowlife “yemach shmo” is intrinsically worth more than a boat full of the largest, rarest, and most magnificent of animals.”
You see clearly not like that from Parshas Noach. While Hashem had to destroy most of the animals because some say they were Mushpah from the humans, clearly he felt it important to save every kind of his animals and even more Tahor animals than all the Reshayim then.
“their purpose in being created is no different than that of a carrot’s.”
This statement is ridiculous. You don’t have to have Rachmonus on a carrot, but you do on animals -even more than just Tzar Baalei Chaim. There is a Maseh in the Gemorra where Rebbi (I think) didn’t have mercy on a cow and was punished until he showed mercy on cats (or Chuldas/weasels).
