That’s great, Kalidas. I’ve never read that before and I’m glad you posted it.

In the words of George Bernard Shaw:

We are living graves of murdered beasts

Slaughtered to satisfy our appetites.

We never pause to wonder at our feasts,

If animals like men could possibly have rights.

We pray on Sunday that we may have light,

To guide our footsteps on the paths we tread.

We are sick of war, we do not want to fight,

And we gorge ourselves upon the dead.

Like Carrion Crows we live and feed on meat,

Regardless of the suffering and pain

We cause by doing so, in this we treat,

Defenseless animals for sport or gain -

How can we hope in this world to attain

The peace we say we are so anxious for,

We pray for it o’er hetacomba of slain,

To God while outraging the moral law,

Thus cruelty begets the offspring — WAR !

Thanks for this article.
I think people should be judged by how they treat the animals in their midst. In that light, many people aren’t scoring high points in my book.

I would also like to see the same transparency demanded in this article for the medical tests done on humans, too.
