Is it really so wrong that one of nature's mammals kills a human being? Let's stop and think if only for a moment: we feel the need to control to protect our space; we freely kill wildlife infringing upon our claim to the world so if we infringe upon their space why can't they in turn defend their own territory, their home, if they feel threatened? We claim to believe in justice so it seems a simple thing to understand: we are all a part of nature, nature is a part of us so if we wantonly, unjustly destroy, inexorable laws of our physical order state that over time we must destroy ourselves: physicists call it entropy, others, recycling. ___________________________________ "I wonder: are we so big and mighty, or just small, selfish fragments tossed from the cosmos?" |

WindWalker Defender of Mother Earth, you can't carry her weight every day. Sometimes you just have to trust her creator to see her through. :-) |

Steven has a point but perhaps the earth is just giving us the reins to hang ourselves. Some people just don't stop let alone stop AND think so please continue to bring nature to their attention. |
