Guest guest Posted September 13, 2002 Report Share Posted September 13, 2002 World Vegetarian Day - 1st October Dear Fellow Vegetarians, As you'd know WVD is very close and in these troubled times I'd like to invite you all to share with us a mood of mutual co-operation in getting our message across to the world. For those who are not vegetarian it is an opportune time for us to reach them especially given the present climate. 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, Defenceless 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 ! World Vegetarian Day 1st October World Animals Day 4th October http://www.hknet.org.nz/Veges-Beyond5page.htm#WorldVegDay We have a very comprehensive site at http://turn.to/Vegetarianism and if you find anything there of use in your presenting Vegetarianism to the public in your region of the planet please feel free to use any or all references or links.
