Ethical Dilemma - Circular Logic

Vegetarians. They don't eat meat. Probably some for reasons of health but others and probably the majority because they don't think killing animals for food is ethical. For moral reasons. You know, cows have big eyes and so on.

So what if there was a scientific breakthrough and it was discovered that plants had feelings. That carrot that got pulled out of the ground had silently screamed. Vegetarians would have a dilemma on thier hands. Puzzled, would they choose to starve?

There is another choice, scavenge and eat what was allready dead and not by their own hands. Like buzzards and vermin do.

Ironically, the creatures that we think are nature's most disgusting just might be the most morally ethical, well, at least to vegetarians.

Words

Words can lift and support,

Words can bite and mar,

Words spontaneous can puzzle,

Words thought out make clear.

Words as weapons, words as love.

Forward Ever, Backward Never.

Can Make or Mar.

Narcissism

Ok sports fans, so re reading the Thoughts post. It seems a bit narcisstic to me. But I like it anyway.

Hunters Poem

May the Rain Cleanse You,


May the Fire Temper,


May the Wind Whisper The Way,


May the Earth Nourish,


And May the Report of a Rifle Echo Your Heartbeat Across the Canyon.

Thoughts





























In the Jaws of the Beast , on the End of a Horn,

Into the Abyss, in the Eye of the Storm.

Come ride with me.

Red Tailed Hawk

Red Tailed Hawk, Soaring High
Feathered Wing Tips, Paint The Sky
Floating High, Without A Sound
Our Souls Wander, With The Clouds.
Weeping Trees, Autumn's Toll
Leaves Like Tears, Begin To Fall
Crackling Fire, Warms The Soul
For A Moment, A Vision Holds.
When The Last Breath, Passes From My Lips
And My Heart Lies Still, In My Chest
Snatch My Soul, Up To Your Nest.
Red Tailed Hawk, Watched Over Me
Red Tailed Hawk, My Spirit Free.
