"Religion asks followers to believe in things nobody can see, however, animal activists ask people to see things they can prove. When Christian animal and environmental activists finally demand that their church be better stewards over the world, we will see change. Until then, one percent of sermons will teach parishioners about the importance of being stewards over our animals in a year. Mega churches and corporate religious empires will continue to own stock in companies that pollute our earth and exploit our animals. Ignorance and hypocrisy will continue to corrupt the pureness of the Gospel. From here, we will not be truly “saved” because we choose not to save ourselves."

"Often people that tell others they are "extremely polite" when the situation calls for tact and bluntness are not actually polite people.

Sadly, they impolitely confuse the hell out of everyone, send mixed signals, which then makes people question their sanity and motives."
