One of those quotes that for me expresses WHY we should QUESTION ourselves and how we got this way. We are mentally ill doesn't anyone else see it???????
Honestly, I feel so alone sometimes, maybe I am the one absurd because the more I look and question existance, the more insane it becomes.
I no longer eat animals. I no longer participate in the American Medical Services or Products. I no longer support any manmade genetically altered food.
There is peace in my personal world and I like it that way.
"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 million in order to protect his domestic animals and their feed. Then he kills domestic animals by the billion 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 cards praying for Peace on Earth."

If anything within your being twinges or tweaks to evolve not only yourself but your planet, I recommend the following book. "The Face on your Plate"...here is a link to a video of the book's author Jeff Masson discussing quotes like the one above. Perhaps you too will consider joining the solution instead of being part of the problem.
