DEAR EDITOR:

It’s OK, I do not. I have never eaten deer. I’ve quit eating bacon, beef and the rest. It’s a lot healthier. You know, we are all created by God. For you and the rest of you men who enjoy watching babies and their mothers scream, I guess it’s your problem. I love animals. Deer are so much like dogs, they’re smart, they’re gentle, they play, they get excited and they’re intelligent. Sometimes man is not that way at all but us women still feed you and put up with you guys.

I think you are wrong to hate people who love animals so deeply that they are willing to fight for them. You don’t understand the respect that you don’t have, that I have, and people like me have, for not wanting to dare end the love, playfulness and family-oriented deer.

We are both going to die one day and do you really think at the gates of Heaven that God will not realize you waited until then to say, “Forgive me Father, for I have sinned.” He’s watching all of you now.

KATHY MAINE
