Hi mtmolle --
Possibly true... but wouldn't you agree that the suffering inflicted on
animals
mirrors that of humans? Wouldn't you agree also, that much of the cruelty
inflicted in this world has not really changed, except with regard to WHO it
is directed at??
If we "allow," even condone, such actions against those who do not have a
voice,
what does that say about those of us who do have a voice, but choose not
to use it?
