respect for life.

Let's talk about the lack of respect we have for life.
Ok, some of us respect each other, but what about the other lifes and souls? Animals, insects, pets, and so on...
Many of us respect endagered animals and other creatures, but almost nobody has any damn respect for insects and other day-to-day creatures.
Yesterday, a trio of high school students found a carcass of a praying-manthis and started playing ping-pong with it! And painting it with pens and taking pictures! 17 year old people! Ok, so the bug was dead, but they should still have some respect for it. It once was inhabitted by a soul and it body should be respected, right? Otherwise, it's like moking the soul.
But what when, a bee or an ant or any other bug passes you by? most people just have the basic instict of killing it. I mean, if you kill a plague of ants atacking your house or some fly bothering you in your room, thats one thing, 'cause you have that right. Survival of the fittest, proctection of your terretory, but if that creature just happens to be close to you without bothering you, why should you kill it?
All animals must be respected. We should also learn to not fell bothered by them for every little thing, but learn to live in harmony with all creatures in the planet.
Don't kill randomly, think "are you doing the right thing? is there any other way?". Life deserves respect, even when after death. Remember all the souls in the world and your own feelings if the situation were the other way around...
Think about and give me your opinion.
Thanks.
Peace
