I always have to laugh when people try to shout me down for what I say while insisting their *real* point is something like "freedom of speech"... Just don't get it, huh? ;)
I *am* practicing what I preach -- I am providing the opportunity for people to wake up to the reality of their actions by stating the truth. I never said, "you have no right to say that", as others are basically saying to me. I never even said, "you shouldn't eat corpses". I simply counter with a reality-based point of view. People don't say, "let's eat some yummy bird corpse", because that doesn't sound very appealing, does it? :) No, corpse-eaters depend heavily on euphemisms in order to maintain denial about the nature of what they do. Not all, of course. I'll bet Wayne could eat a peach while chopping a turkey's head off... But most corpse-eaters can't stand for anyone to point out that what they are doing is eating corpses. Don't you ever wonder why? :) And yes, apologies to Mike and to the innocents no doubt groaning about this going on and on.
