“About the book of Job: If it were today, God might be asking "How does DNA carry traits? How are instincts passed on in animals? How does consciousness arise in the human body and brain, and what is consciousness? What is dark matter? How did the big bang happen? Why does the speed of light appear to be absolute?

“KFC is not black owned, but it sure knows to market heavily to African Americans - obviously hoping we won-t care about what they do the underdog, or in this case, the underchicken - So, if KFC wants to take our money and use it to pay for sloppy practices that hurt animals?I say we send them a message that this is not going to happen. I-m calling on people to boycott KFC until they adopt animal welfare systems recommended by PETA and until they stop the worst abuses of the birds they raise for their restaurants.” PeopleIfsKnowsWantUseHappensCareBlackHurtAnimalPayPracticeCasesWorstCallingMessagesBirdAbuseRaisesAfrican AmericanWelfareRestaurantsUnderdogAnimal WelfareSloppyBoycottPetaKfc Author:Bill Vaughan
“Even as a child I was fascinated by death, not in a spiritual sense, but in an aesthetic one. A hamster or guinea pig would pass away, and, after burying the body, I'd dig it back up: over and over, until all that remained was a shoddy pelt. It earned me a certain reputation, especially when I moved on to other people's pets. "Igor," they called me. "Wicked, spooky." But I think my interest was actually fairly common, at least among adolescent boys. At that age, death is something that happens only to animals and grandparents, and studying it is like a science project.” PeopleThinkingChildrenBodyHappensAgeSpiritualCertainInterestAnimalCommonBoysStudyProjectsMovedReputationWickedPetFascinatedAestheticPigsGrandparentPassing AwaySpookyMoved OnGuineaBuryingHamstersAll That RemainsGuinea PigsI Moved On Author:David Sedaris

“If you are a cooperative animal you need to watch what you get. If you, or even a whole community, invest in something but then a few individuals receive a much larger return, it's not a good arrangement. If it happens consistently, it's time to look for an arrangement that is more beneficial. That's why we're so sensitive to how rewards are being divided.” IfsNeedsLooksWholeHappensIndividualCommunityAnimalWatchesReturnRewardsSensitiveDividedConsistentlyArrangementsBeneficialCooperatives Author:Frans de Waal
“Animals are murdered to produce meat; vegetables are torn up, peeled, and chopped; most of what we eat is treated with fire; and chewing is designed remorselessly to finish what killing and cooking began. People naturally prefer that none of this should happen to them. Behind every rule of table etiquette lurks the determination of each person present to be a diner, not a dish.” PeopleShouldPersonsHappensAnimalBehindsFireProduceEatingDeterminationTablesCookingKillingTreatedMannersMeatVegetablesDishesTornEtiquetteChewingDiners Book:The Rituals of Dinner: The Origins, Evolution, Eccentricities, and Meaning of Table Manners Source: The Rituals of Dinner: The Origins, Evolution, Eccentricities, and Meaning of Table Manners
