Letter to the Pope: Leather Bibles

Also in Genesis skins were given to Adam and Eve to cover their sinfullness with the death of an innocent which in Christianity is now accomplished by the blood of Jesus the Lamb of God so when I see the foul skincovered Bibles I think why is the word and revelation of God being covered like Adam and Eve in Genesis? And when I see it in Christian book catalogs leather BIbles are always more expensive and marketted as if that glorifies the Bible and that is how people talk like "I'm gonna get a leather covered Bible!" I think it is a Sen. Byrd "barbaric" disgrace and an irony due to how the Bible itself tells of the original use of such a covering as a result of sin! So God's words need to be covered like Adam and Eve? Sounds more like a Satanic tradition and vanity than a good Christian understanding and caring for such victims.

nick people like you make me freeze let's hope that paradise is not an ice palace!

Hi MARK I think I can address your question to some satisfaction as to why these antiPETA people bother to blog on here with their nonsense or say snide comments in person otherwise about animal activists. An friend of mine who is a child counselor and VERY strong animal advocate told me the reason is because we hit a nerve with them. Think about it they have no clue about what animal advocacy encompassesie they spout out narrowminded andor unintelligible views as reflected in their comments above by Thomas Jim Nick and Rick. I read a saying recently that also would address this something to the effect 'the heart cannot keep a secret of what someone is like because it reveals them with their actions or words.' Let's take Jim's comment for example. He is clueless about the types of people from all walks of life involved in animal advocacy particularly mentioning professionals doctors teachers athletes celebrities etc. They have more of a "life" than he probably does and those of us who are not in such high status are nonetheless very intelligent capable and industrious people. So Jim is displaying some type of inferiority complex by saying "peta needs to get a life." Nick's comments reflect a restricted vision of which the Pope does not have. The Pope respects ALL life because he knows ALL life is created by God. Thomas is just an attentionseeker. Rick is revealing that he is just being ignorant and has cruelty in his heart towards other living beings who are particularly innocent. On the whole the antianimal activists are telling us that they not educated about animal advocacy but instead would rather display their lack of knowledge about it with crude comments...because we hit a nerve. Otherwise they wouldn't bother commenting on here. And may I say to them BELIEVE US when I say that we are NOT affected by your opinions. Our TOTAL focus is on the animals and the humananimalenvironmentalsocietal relationship to which we are VERY welleducated.

Gee this never seems to get old... why do people that hate animals come on to the PETA website and talk about how much they hate animals? You don't go to a website about children with diseases and say you hate kids because they're too loud! And don't you DARE try and use that to say I don't care about human children with diseases my brother has been in a wheelchair all of his life because of disease. And then you try and act surprised that some people that go on this site do so because they CARE about animal welfare! Ah and then you say that we waste all our lives doing this when it takes what... 8 seconds to fill out a petition and save millions of animals' lives? I once signed over 500 petitions in one hour using time that I otherwise would have used to sleep my way through a Sunday! And I've noticed that most animalhaters don't go out of their way to help out people either they're way too busy bitching about people that give a damn about the suffering of innocents! So why don't you all just go back to your sad repetitive lonely animalhating crueltysupporting problemignoring hypocritical completely ineffectual existence?

Hopefully Peta gets through to the Pope. Some of these comments are coming from truly disconnected christians. If they wanted to get a true education please go to the photo gallary at allcreatures.org.
