Weltschmerz

i live in a country where they cry about not having enough gas.
i cry because those women are searching for food in a garbage dump.

thankyou.
i need to borrow this for folks here.

Sometimes we get so worked up in our own problems we forget to look at the bigger picture I’m glad the video clip has reminded you that there are more people out there who can still survive by eating food from garbage…

We must all be thankful to the condition we’re in, no matter how terrible it feels, there are people out there who suffer more.

THEY BEAT THE BABY SEALS TO DEATH??

typical humans…..always blame someone for their own faults… *cries imagining the poor poor baby seals*

Yep. Kinda makes us feel embarassed being one right?

Its not a bad idea. There was a recent story about a nurse from canada who joined medicin san frontiers. She was recently kidnapped by rebels in dafur. Apparently now she has been released. Have to admit thats pretty exiting. She is actually making a difference. Can be rough though…

Now about this seal business…..

You’ve left it to me to defend the indefensible. Oh well its fun to take a contrary position.

Can you really explain how killing baby seals is any worse than killing, goats, chickens, cows, pigs, or force feeding geese to make foie gras and then killing them. Apart from the fact that baby seals are more cute and appear to be crying that is. Sealing is a small industry and has been sustainable for 300 years. Ironically enough the sealing industry is dwarfed by the animal rights industry that uses sealing as a poster boy in order to solicit an obscene amount of money and pay themselves obscene salaries.

And if ur a vegan how do you think farmers control pest like rats for example…ask them not to eat the grain…they poison em.

So pretty much anything ya eat, you are going to be using some poor critters headstone for a plate. Cruel i suppose but until we develop photosnynthetic humans there we are.

Hi PJ! Long time no see The reason why I was crying while watching the baby seals massacre was that I realised, of course, that this was ONLY baby seals we were talking about. How about the rest? The other animals that human consume on daily basis, like chicken, beef, pork, etc. Of course it sickens me as well how those animals are no longer thought as living beings but more like objects to be turned into food. I’ve seen chicken farms, seen how cows are killed, and because my mother is a vegetarian, she makes sure I get my daily dosage of animal killing nightmare.

That was the reason why I felt sick – humans are so greedy. They kill animals because they can’t defend themselves, and they don’t know when to stop, or when to say enough. They think they owe everything that’s living on this earth just because they’re human and their bibles told them to rule over the earth. I don’t believe it so. I think it’s about time we start giving back to the earth, and we can start by the small things, like reducing plastic usage, start eating more veggies (even if the rats are killed in this process, but if we don’t eat anything we will die, no?), reduce usage of air conditioner, replanting trees, and so on.

PS: It’s my dream of having my own house with a big farm so I can plant my own crop and harvest them, and to take care of stray dogs so they can run around free willy in the backyard… I do wish it will come true

its such a loss for the babies to get killed that way. a lot of things happen in the wrong time, at the wrong place.
but for whatever we loss, we gain something. so save your tears, for something greater is awaited ahead ther.
look at the bright side and you shall rejoice.

Awww… thanks Wien you’re so sweet! I hope so too. But hoping is not enough. We have to take the right action as well, right?

Beaten baby seals? it make me want to strangle someone to death..

but whooo

Maybe that’s the difference between male and female? Something so sickening makes me all depressed, while it makes you want to murder the people who make you feel depressed!:P

therry, thank you for posting this… it’s good to know someone else is sharing this point of view. i feel sick of the world too, most of the time. sick of people being so ignorant, so self-centered.
