About Me "We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate for having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein do we err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours, they move finished and complete, gifted with the extension of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings: they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and travail of the earth." ~Henry Beston

Wild Fact About Me "Since an animal's natural life is a gift from God, it follows that God's right is violated when the natural life of his creatures is perverted. Those who, in contrast, opt for the welfarist approach to intensive farming are inevitably involved in speculating how far such and such may or may not suffer in what are plainly unnatural conditions. But unless animals are judged to have some right to their natural life, from what standpoint can we judge abnormalities, mutilations or adjustments? Confining a de-beaked hen in a battery cage is more than a moral crime; it is a living sign of our failure to recognize the blessing of God in creation." -Rev. Dr. Andrew Linzey from Christianity and the Rights of Animals, 1988
My Philosophy The argument for animal rights does not decrease respect for human life; it increases respect for all life. ~ Francione
What Gives Me Hope "In whose hand is the SOUL of EVERY living thing.” Job 12:10

Linda M. (0) 		In America, there are more babies killed by abortion in just one year than all deaths combined in all wars the US has been involved with.  That is just plain wrong and overwhelmingly heartbreaking.
