Tyson Foods, the nation's biggest meat company, reported that its profits fell 61% in the most recent quarter due in large part to lower consumer demand for chicken and beef, and for rising costs of grain. Please visit Lower Demand for Meat Weighs on Tyson's Results   
It’s fantastic news to learn that people are eating fewer animal products and that mega-companies like Tyson are not invincible by any means. After all, Tyson and other business that profit from exploiting God’s animals depend entirely on the support of consumers. Fortunately, every day more people are learning about the devastating effects of the animal agriculture industry. The decrease in Tyson’s profits is a step on the right direction. 
 Have a blessed day!

This is a very useful post by Nick Cooney, author of Change Of Heart: What Psychology Can Teach Us About Spreading Social Change. It has great tips on how to deal with the questions that you may have to deal with as a lone vegan dining out with people whose reactions to your food choices range from “ignorance to sarcasm to downright insult.” Please visit The Lone Vegan at the Dinner Table - A Survivor's Guide  


Jesus: An Animal Advocate
 Joel Freedman, chair of the public education committee of Animal Rights Advocates of Upstate New York, makes a case for Jesus being vegetarian and spreading his message of compassion and love to all creatures. Freedman refers to the Bible but also to the Gospel of the Holy Twelve, what he calls the “original teachings of Jesus.”  Regardless of accepting all or some Christian beliefs, Feedman emphasizes that if we just follow Jesus’ core teaching of “do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” the world would be a more compassionate one. Please visit Joel Freedman: Was Jesus a pioneer of animal-rights, vegetarian activism? JOEL FREEDMAN: Was Jesus a pioneer of animal-rights, vegetarian activism?
There is no doubt that Jesus showed us the path of healing, restoration and reconciliation. His teachings centered on embracing the least, the poor, the suffering, the victim and the needed. Today, billions of God’s creatures every week around the world are recipient of humanity’s fury due to hardness of heart. When we allow ourselves to feel and to empathize with the pain and suffering God’s creatures are experiencing, we realize we don’t want to be part of the cause anymore. And we also realize that a lifestyle that includes the exploitation of any other being is inconsistent with Christ’s teachings.

New Study: Eggs as Harmful as Cigarettes


ABC News reporting the TRUTH about ANIMALS “FOOD” BUSINESS

Plant Closed by USDA Supplied Beef for In-N-Out Burger

"But ask the beasts, and they will teach you; the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or the plants of the earth, and they will teach you; and the fish of the sea will declare to you. Who among all these does not know that the hand of the LORD has done this? In his hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind.”

The essence of God, the breath of our Creator, is in each and every one of us. Every creature on Earth is connected by this web of infinite love and wisdom. Once we embrace this fact, it’s not possible to willingly and unnecessarily cause harm to any creature.
  
The Threat of a Swine Flu Pandemic

Factory farms seem to be the perfect vessels to incubate new viral strains. Just this year, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has announced a sharp increase in cases of swine-origin influenza (H3N2v), better known as "swine flu", from only 12 cases last year to at least 224 cases since mid-July. The threat of a pandemic is real, especially if this virus becomes capable of spreading from human to human. Please visit How Industrialized Farming Could Facilitate Pandemic Swine Flu 
Factory farms are creating havoc on this planet. Eating God’s animals not only does it kill them but it destroys all of God’s Creation. We are approaching a point of no return unless we change our ways, soften our hearts and follow our inner-most values and beliefs. The transition to a plant-based diet is an unavoidable step in order to bring healing, restoration and reconciliation.
