Gee, I think I like you! It's nice to see what folks who on the surface disagree can accomplish with open talk, open ears, and open HEARTS. Think someone would send us to Washington to work with the folks in congress?
There are probably service projects on which we actually agree! Considering that we both cited the beatitudes from "The Sermon on the Mount", maybe we each could send a $5 check to Beatitude House in care of the Ursuline Motherhouse on Shields Road.
This exchange was really rewarding for me. No politics, name calling or high blood pressure... just a willingness to be open to each other's point of view.
Perhaps you misunderstood my comment. I did not lump humans with other animals, subordinate our species to any other, or say that everything is equal. When did advocating and appreciating a general spirit of gentleness and compassion become "a perversion of values"?
I, too, am familiar with "The Sermon on the Mount" and its blessings for the meek, the merciful, the peacemakers, and the pure in heart among others. You have the opportunity to be merciful if you try accept that I am pure in heart. In meekness and without rancor we can respect each other and move ahead as peacemakers to soothe the harshness of the world wherever we find it.
College credits are earned through the biotechnology programs, not the community service program to assist the animals.
It is very likely that the students and teachers try to help hungry and homeless people through individual efforts outside of school such as monetry donations and volunteer time offered to charities.
Any act of compassion offered to any species makes the world a more gentle and habitable place.
Oh, c'mon now... I can already picture next year's Christmas toy ads: The natural delivery doll... the cesarean section doll, which even teaches little girls how to pronounce and spell a 4-syllable word... and the ever-popular conception doll. I never thought I'd say this, but I agree with Bill O'Reilly!!!
Shameful! How much do the owners of these "care" facilities rake in? What do the stockholders and investors earn quarterly? How long until this tragedy happens to those of who are presently healthy? With dollar signs dancing in their heads, these facilities... SOME of which may as well be warehouses storing goods to be traded for profit... might just move the residents to the parking lots, arrange their beds under colorful flapping banners and sell them to each other like used cars!
Cardinal tweets? Adopt-a cardinal? Papel election creating virtual history
Ooops! Misspelling in headline. It's "papal", not "papel".

City man gets 6-year prison term for double homicide in 2011
SHAMEFUL! This is not justice! ...And he'll probably get credit toward his insufficient sentence for the time he's already served in the county jail!
