Guest guest Posted October 19, 2000 Report Share Posted October 19, 2000 ernie, I really liked the quotes you had up. I haven't gotten a chance to really look at the website you listed, but one thing that bothers me greatly is that humans believe that they are more intelligent, etc, etc than animals and are therefore above the world and able to destroy it. i cringe every time i hear a statement like that. so i can appreciate the quotes. michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It bothers me too, because humans define intelligence so that it insures that humans are more intelligent. Intelligence is only what intelligence test test. Therefore... I cringe too knowing that humans can and lkely will destroy the eco-systems that make up the " earth " as we know her. Humans will not likely destroy the universe. Humans may likely destroy themselves (and many other life forms) unless and until they evolve as a people to the level of those who are examples for us like Jesus, Buddha, Ghandi, Einstein, Plato, Hermes, Zoroaster, and many others known and unknown to popular history. I believe this is the mission of veganism. The methods that we adopt to do this is optional but otherwise vital, like those who post action alerts and campaigns...and those who follow through on these alerts and campaigns. ~ernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
