The thread on cannibalism raised the point about sentient creatures being taboo in the opinion of some, but I still can't see why it should matter.
So my question - is the eating of creatures with intelligence higher than 3 (ie in the human range) morally wrong, is it murder if a Ranger hunts, kills and eats a Behir (int 7), would your Paladin need to atone after eating Griffon (int 5) drumsticks? What about Dragon? or Lammusa or Ki-Rin?
and if it is wrong then in LG society should all intelligent creatures have 'rights'?
Consider that Otyugh have int 5, Giant Owl int 10, Behir int 7, Chull int 10, Griffon int 5, Worg int 6 and even Tarrasque with int 3 are 'intelligent'...
