Suffering is a sacred process? Ok, just my opinion, but what a load of crap! I hope that person (pam) had truly suffered in her past, so she will be justified/qualified in advocating suffering in others! How the HELL does she know that suffering in a terminal illness is a pathway to spiritual evolution? Has she ever suffered and DIED of anything?
"Oh yeah, I'm feeling the need to connect to god (or whatever)... I think I will gouge my own eyes out so I can find that sacred place suffering will take me!" Do me a big favor, before advocating allowing suffering in innocent animals, take the biggest kitchen knife you have, put your hand on the table, and stab it right through it. Then, please let me know how sacred you feel, and if you get closer to god that way! Tell me, if this is the right thing to do, WHY do we even bother taking our pets to the vet? Why not just let them suffer until they die to begin with? Oh, so that horse has a broken leg... just let him drag it around, he'll die on his own in a week or two, we'd hate to rob him of his sacred suffering! Yeah, fat chance! I'm going on no mail for a while.... I can't stand to listen to this SICKNESS. Phaewryn
