Ahimsa...

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

 

The following is from the preface of the book

Old MacDonald's Factory Farm by - C. David Coats

I think it says it all about killing of any sort.

 

 

" Isn't man an amazing animal? He kills wildlife - birds, kangaroos,

deer, all kinds of cats, coyotes, beavers, groundhogs, mice, foxes, and

dingoes - by the millions in order to protect his domestic animals and

their feed

..

Then he kills domestic animals by the billions and eats them.

This in turn kills man by the millions, because eating all those animals

leads to degenerative and fatal health conditions like heart disease,

kidney disease, and cancer.

 

So then man tortures and kills millions more animals to look for cures

for these diseases. Elsewhere, millions of other human beings are being

killed by hunger and malnutrition because food they could eat is being

used to fatten domestic animals. Meanwhile, some people are dying of sad

laughter at the absurdity of man, who kills so easily and so violently,

and once a year sends out a card praying for

'Peace on Earth'. "

 

Humbly Yours,

 

Sriram,Balaraman
