Woody Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 Our local Humane Society is holding a benefit barbecue July 21st. They're having a "beer garden" and are grilling ribs. Does anyone see a conflict here. They are for the rights of animals such as dogs and cats. They promote the "humane" treatment of animals. But they EAT ribs. Hello ???????

Woody Posted July 14, 2010 Author Posted July 14, 2010 I hate to do this ... but I can envision another letter to the editor coming. HA HA HA Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.

Woody Posted July 14, 2010 Author Posted July 14, 2010 Yes. I was thinking of inviting them to really be concerned about animal rights and come to one of our church's vegetarian cooking schools.

Woody Posted July 14, 2010 Author Posted July 14, 2010 Here is their statement in the paper. They are "dedicated to the prevention of cruelty and abuse to animals." I wonder if they consider "killing" and "eating" to be abuse or cruelty? Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.

Maybe someone can come up with a veggie "Ribbettes"... wait...that sounds like a frog.. Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup. If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony. Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?
Moderators Bravus Posted July 14, 2010 Moderators Posted July 14, 2010 Mmmmm, ribs.... Quote Truth is important
SivartM Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 Maybe someone can come up with a veggie "Ribbettes"... wait...that sounds like a frog.. My sister (or my mom, I forget which) actually wrote to Worthington and asked them to make vegetarian frog legs.

GreatLakesGramma Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 Go ahead and write your letter, Woody. Be sure to look up information on CAFO's (Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations, aka Factory Farms) so you can add accurate, factual information about the inhumane conditions those animals that will become that meal lived in throughout their entire lives.

Lewis
