Personal posts - Prevent cats and dogs being skinned alive in China
So poorly written, I lol’d.
Most of you here are more than likely all too unaware of the unnecessary measures being taken to ensure your very satisfaction at the dinner table each night. Most of you here are more than likely all too content living in naivety, or bliss rather when it comes to the filth placed on your table each and every night. I won’t preach to you my views on this certain matter nor tell you the way you are living your life is wrong, only educate you on this sickening issue that has been left unaddressed for much too long, for it’s the least I could do.
I feel as though it is safe to say, each of you here have more than indulged in some form of “Take-Away” food, or “Junk” purchased at your local Supermarket within the past week, sure we all know it’s wrong, that it’s bad for you and that there are of course prices to be paid for such gluttony, but to what extent, or price, are we willing to pay?
Did you know that over 70, 000 people die annually as the result of a bad diet? Meat is a great contributing factor to an imbalanced and unhealthy diet, what makes these statistics even worse is that over 45 billion innocent animals are bred each year and slaughtered for the sole benefit of the average meat eater, only to have 70% of food poisonings to be meat related. Let’s take McDonalds for example. Millions of burgers are sold each day in over 35 different countries, McDonalds, single handedly being responsible for the poor health, obesity and even death of thousands, millions even, they are also responsible for the mass slaughter of billions of animals, animals that often don’t ever get to see the light of day for they have been bred for one purpose; The Big Mac. Most animals can even be seen in such a frantic state they may even fall ill and die before making it to the slaughter table, others can be seen panicking their fragile little hearts out knowing they are next in the “Slaughter Line”, for they have just seen the animal in front of them being beaten, prodded, electrocuted and sliced right before their very eyes, believe it or not this is happening, and for what? Most people, naïve and stupid enough to believe this doesn’t apply to them are long over due for a slice of reality! This is happening in Australia, not just America, not just the UK, but right beneath our very feet! And if you can just sit there and ignore that, then you deserve to serve nothing less than the very fate of the poor animals you’re inflicting this upon.
In such a modern day and age, why are so many lives still being lost to a matter as simple as food? Not only human lives, but animals’. It is greatly known that animals were never truly intended to be consumed by man, in fact some years ago, we weren’t even born with carnivorous teeth, just flat grinding teeth for things such as plants. No consumption of meat intended. It is also known that our ancestors, belonging to the early primate family could not survive on a diet similar to the one us modern-day humans have adopted, their bodies could not cope, they couldn’t process half of the crud our bodies are taking in. It has simply become customary to eat meat, we have been taught to believe we were meant to eat it, irrespective of necessity. I am here today to expose you and to open your eyes to what you are doing, to not only yourselves, but to others too. In such a modern time, there is no and I mean no excuse for you to be eating meat! Not when there are so many substitutes, of which we are all so very exposed to available. Substitutes available to each and every human being on the planet. There is no excuse to remain in the dark when there are so many resources just begging to pull us through, we have access to books, doctors, nutritionists and even this wonderful new thing called the internet! There is a forever endless supply of information out there just waiting to aid you through your journey. There is no excuse.
You are in possession of great power. You have the power to stand up, to educate and to change the world! You have to stand up for those who cannot stand up for themselves. You cannot remain content knowing that the blood is on your hands, can you? The next time you sit down to your plate of filth, I ask of you a favour, stop and think, “Do I really want to do this?” It is time to put an end to this! Billions of lives are being lost to a fate preventable! If we all do our part, we can save billions of lives, live happier, healthier and safer, for longer! If not for yourself, or the lives of the innocent animals, do it for your loved ones, your friends, your children, don’t let these treacherous practices seep into another generation..
