And stop keeping pet cats because they eat mice and birds... And stop encouraging owls and eagles and kestrels because they eat mice and birds... And stop... well... try to stop Nature from operating life on Earth entirely because it is all sustained by animals eating animals? A few big bangs all over the globe would stop much future suffering... I find almost all simple sounding sentiments very unconvincing. Think I'll just shut up about Thought For The Day now though. I clearly have very different thoughts, usually. Need to stop eating them then?

Do you let them live too? They are not hard to find. “Live and let live” sounds a lovely sentiment, until you come up against those who would like to try to make you die… Do you let them live too?

But not for me Cherie, I'll be gone soon, for ever... And those who speak of "unconditional love" should imagine their child (the most common presumed recipients of "unconditional love"), then imagine them becoming the leader of a nation and initiating a program of extermination of millions of people based on those people's ancestry alone...
