Do plants feel pain?

yes or no? Because plants do not have a brain or a central nervous system, we humans are lead to believe that they do not feel any sort of pain such as animals do. I believe this ideology is false, and all living creatures, whether a plant or animal, feels pain on a different level. Therefore, why is it ok to kill plants but not animals? Both were put on this Earth to sustain one another. Eating plants to sustain a healthy lifestyle is great if you live by that ideology, but what difference does it make whether you eat meat or plants?

I think the plants don't feel painful or hurt. As you said they don't have the nerve system so we can cut them all easily, but the things make many feel like the plants feel very painful, it's because of their thoughts. They put their feeling into the plants and feel very sympathy with them. In fact, They don't hurt anything. Instead, we will be really painful, if we cut a lot trees because the trees must help us save the world from natural disaster.

No, plants doesn't feel painful. According to many research show that plants do not have the nerve system as you said. Function of Central nerve system is control our feeling and receive feeling. Then Central nerve system send message to the brain for do actions. In the other hand, plants have only phytohormones that control growth or plants behavior. However, we should not destroy plants because plants spend a lot of time to grow.
