Because man is made in the image of God and if you fuck it up you have created conscious persons who will suffer. Also, if you infringe on their rights during youro effort, you might piss god off and he could hurt you.

If you make a deformed goat, just kill it and start over. If two goats don't want to breed, just force one to rape the other. Nothing wrong was done.

Not so with man. We have a dignity animals do not.

You must be Christian to say something so silly. Jacob didn't kill the goats or force them to rape each other. He just encouraged the ones he wanted to breed. This doesn't infringe on any rights. But then I wouldn't expect a Christian to know the Bible. There is no way that such an approach applied to people would do any harm.

I know more about the bible than you ever will. And I'm not even an expert.

If I pen two people together and tell them they must fuck each other to leave, I'd be thrown in jail for kidnapping and sexual assault.

If I do it with goats it's fine.
