I have to say this, I'm sorry.

Isn't this carrying the pro life movement too far? Chickens do not have souls, in the biblical context.

If this isn't a religious thing, then note the article has two methods. One detecting feather differences, the other a genetic test.

The genetic test should be quite early. If at that stage, I imagine a blade of grass has more intelligence, there isn't a brain yet, and nerves don't even exist.

No pain, no feeling, just a few dozen cells hanging out.

Does this not seem OK to you, if the case?
