PETA - The Wacky Relative That Sometimes Gets It Right

As I mentioned here almost two years ago I don't often post much from the PETA camp... But I could find nothing in what Ms. Kirk has to say in this video that I disagree with. Can you?



If you do disagree and believe that violence towards nonhumans is acceptable... Please re-examine why you think that. Please question your premises with a critical eye. Please put yourself in the place of that other animal in order to come to a better conclusion. If you refuse to do so... You are a danger to us all.

As often as Herman had witnessed the slaughter of animals and fish, he always had the same thought: in their behavior toward creatures, all men were Nazis. The smugness with which man could do with other species as he pleased exemplified the most extreme racist theories, the principle that might is right.

Easter Joy & World Peace Expressed through a Vegan Diet

Jesus Christ, son of God - Some believe this is true.

Or Jesus as a historical figure, who spread a philosophy of wisdom in his travels...

And some think it's so that Christ is a fictional character created by talented writers to weave him through an epic tale.

In any case, whatever your beliefs about Christ this much is certain, he's always represented as person of peace and nonviolence.

Said to believe that not only must we put down our swords against one another, to truly create peace on earth, but to hold all life sacred. And thus by embracing a plant based diet we can forgo the brutal and needless slaughter of billions of animals, we can move toward greater wholeness as spiritual beings, while at the same time ending world hunger and preserving the environment.

Spring, and Easter is a great time to re-evaluate our course towards creating a benevolent and just world. And everyday we can remember that peace begins on our plates. Go Vegan
