Letter to the Pope: Leather Bibles

Anonymous one and the same 72607 1211pm 1214pm I take it ? 1. At the beginning of time my friend animals and mankind were meant to live in harmony as God the Creator of ALL of us intended. Mankind was given the fruits of the trees and animals were given the grasses of the land to eat. It was mankind's original sin the sin of pride that caused the fall from Paradise thus we needed to be clothed out of shame and not particularly with animal skins. That was mankind's choice. So don't put the blame on God in order to ease your conscience that His intention was for us to be spending hundreds of dollars on highfashion leather bags fur coats etc. materialism. That my friend is stupid! 2. What Bible am I reading? It is the Bible that teaches God's Word which tells us in order to enter the Heavenly realm in the next life we are to strive for perfection through sanctity...and to that we must do God's Will. Among our efforts to live according to His Will is not to be materialistic not be cruel to His other creatures and not to "kill and enjoy." Trust me Heaven doesn't have slaughterhouses testing labs on animals for lipsticks alligator shoes or animals as "tasty treats." Keep this in mind too everything that God created belongs to God. That includes humans animals and our environment. And the animals who do not have a free will glorify God just by their being and He breathed life into them. Therefore they are completely innocent and their spirits return to God. per the Bible Now I'll tell you about the "New Jerusalem." At the end of the world the good will be separated from the bad and a new world will be created. And guess what? That new world the "New Jerusalem" as it is called will be the new Paradise that includes the humans AND animals just as God had originally intended. It's your decision to live according to God's Word or to "kill and enjoy." Now do you want to tell me what Bible you are reading? OR will I not be hearing from you again?

R U SERIUOS?? LEATHER BIBLES COME ON IF ITS GOOD ENOUGH FOR THE LORDS WORDS TO BE WRAPPED IN THEN LEAVE THIS ONE ALONE ITS WAAAAY OUT OF UR HANDS THE LORD ALLOWS THIS ONE BIBLES CAN BE MADE OUT OF WHATEVER AND SHOULD NOT MATTER BECAUSE THE LORDS WORDS R IN IT.

Hey Areil? What Bible are you reading? Are you stupid???

to stoptorture your statement is great i never got this idea before you really made my day!!!!

Thank you Ariel and other likeminded folks. Ariel in particular has done a great job of summarizing what I and others have been trying to articulate on the various topics on PETA's blog site. PETA and its supporters are amazing people even those who do not necessarily agree with everything that PETA says or does and it is so uplifting to think about the animals that get saved every time someone does even the smallest thing for animals. By the way Sarah G. that is wonderful that you love animals so much. Your dogs must get a lot of affection from you and your family. I hope that you can make things complete by becoming vegetarian. You obviously know how easy it is to do so since you only eat meat once a week. You alone would be saving almost 100 animals every year by not eating meat. Just think how many animals could be spared if everyone did the same! Isn't that amazing?
