Earthlings - "A must see for anyone who cares enough to know"

20 years ago the number of animals dying through torcher... through the practice of viasection was astronomical.  Estimated at 400 thousand per day world wide and growing at an anual rate of 5%.  Today that number is almost beyond comprehensive at 19 thousand per minute...10 billion per year.

Some uneducated persons pretend to know that less intelligent animals don't feel pain in the same way we do.  And truth is...we know very little of how specific animals may feel.  Except, that they must also submit to the universal law that causes every organizim dying by unnatural means to suffer greatly before that final release. 

But, it's nonsense to say that animals do not suffer because they have lower level of intelligence.  Pain is Pain.  Conveyed by nerves to the brain...and there are other nerves of those through intelligence.  Nerves such as sight, smell, touch, hearing and caring.  And in some animals these nerves are much more highly developed then Man.

It all comes down to pain & suffering, not intelligence, not strength, not social class or civil right.  Pain & suffering are in themselves bad & should be prevented or minimized for the respect of the race, sex or species of the being that suffers.  We are all animals of this planet.  We are all creatures and non-human animals experience sensations just like we do. They are strong, intelligent, industrious, mobile and evalutional.  They to are capable of growth.  Like us...first and foremost they are Earthlings and Like us they are surviving.  Like us they also seek their own comfort rather then dis-comfort.  And Like us they express degrees of emotion.  In short Like us they are alive...most of them being in fact vertabrates just Like us.

Nature, Animals & Human Kind - We are Earthlings.  Make the connection.
