Does your life intrinsically have any more value than that of any other animal?

I say no.
A life is a life and it's the only one any creature gets. Mine is not more objectively valuable just because i'm a human.

If that be the case you should hand yourself over for each and every case of insect murder you've commited since you were a kid.

I think you're mistaking the idea that a human life is not objectively more valuable than any other life with the idea that i consider every life to be as valuable as a human life.

@Pikachu Seems like a contradictory statement... What do you consider then?

Not really.
I think that a human life is not inherently more valuable than the life of a spider.
But i do place more subjective value on a human life.
