News: Vegan America

essay - call for a better world
Visit my Peep Show for Children Only
Vegan America - Revolt
People, people, people, please, settle down - take a break - go read up on Vegan or Humane Education or Factory Farming - then please come back in a few hours and leave your Ignorance at the door and stay on topic with real knowledge of both sides. I know your side well. Remember, I am a product of your World. I was a Fishing Guide and on Atkins, so I understand how we grow up to believe certain things. Those Milk Mustache posters hanging in a place that stands for truth is a crime when we know otherwise. This is where Hereditary Ignorance remains alive. It is killing us. Be honest and change for our Children.
            I think the average American would be appalled to find out what goes on in those sheds in the distance. You are busted FACTORY FARMING - THE GIG IS UP - WE ARE SICK OF IT! Where is the love and compassion in people? Have we become so hardened and disconnected that we are willing to just die off. I KNOW THE CHILDREN WANT A BETTER WORLD - JUST AS I DID AND STILL DO - DO IT FOR OUR CHILDREN I want everyone who knows of Factory Farming to go to your nearest mountaintop and scream out at the top of your lungs, “FACTORY FARMING” so loud, in hopes the Children will hear you. I want them to hear. They still have sense and can see how wrong it really is. Children understand. Stop hiding it from them. Do you want your Children growing up in a confused World full of death, destruction, violence and hate? What we do to our friends, the Animals, really does come back to us. “As long as men massacre animals, they will kill each other. Indeed, he who sows the seeds of murder and pain cannot reap the joy of love” Leonardo Da Vinci Can’t you see it? WAKE UP!
Everyone wants to make this about me losing my job. I keep saying this is not about my views or beliefs, but no one hears me. It is about how they are running things. I cannot participate in their broken system and they are mad. You really should not fire or hurt a Man for being loving, caring, and compassionate, especially with the whole World watching. If everyone really wants to make this about me and my beliefs, and if everyone insists on ignoring the mountain of scientific data that screams Vegan=Humane Education. Here you go; my beliefs …do what you wish with them in print or fire...
Isn't it funny how I link to misinformation - I want everyone to know both sides, just to show you the forces at work to keep you brain-washed - WAKE-UP PEOPLE – You won’t see any of them linking to my site. There was an editorial printed by a mindless sheep, who cut and paste things they never really researched, that are just dead wrong! Such nonsense - IS THIS 2007? Oh, how well I know, Lazy Ignorance hates to read, and especially hates to admit they might be wrong. This is how the HEREDITARY IGNORANCE CONTINUES - WAKE UP! “We must rapidly begin the shift from a "thing-oriented" society to a "person-oriented" society. When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people, the giant triplets of racism, materialism, and militarism are incapable of being conquered” Martin Luther King, Jr.
            The Meat and Dairy Industry in grand concert with the loving Government getting their hold in Schools, brainwashed us in childhood, just as they did our parents, and theirs, and now our very own Children. Why do we fight so hard for them to continue such an evil legacy? The only reason this poisonous garbage is still in school is because our loving Government stepped in and offered the free and reduced lunch program (nothing is free, and believe me, we pay). “If people let government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as are the souls of those who live under tyranny” Thomas Jefferson
Lazy Ignorance hates work and change. Lazy Ignorance only changes when it is forced to change. Our ever so loving Meat and Dairy Industries in joyous harmony with our beautiful Government know this and have placed their wonderful killing machine in place with all its wondrous safeguards. These same loving people try to unload this horrific-sleuth they call food on other countries. Europe will not even consider it. So we call it surplus and it sits around, and sits around. And so it goes, generously rammed down our innocent and ever so trusting Children’s mouths.
Records, paperwork, and a few too many sick Children, and our loving friends have a recall of millions of pounds of ground Animals, only to find, most has been already consumed (or Lazy Ignorance neglects to find Recall Info and the poison is eaten later), a few thousand pounds in all actuality are returned, which our loving friends then feed back to the Animals (turning them from herbivore to cannibal), your Child will eat later. And still, we fight to keep it in our Children’s schools. HEREDITARY IGNORANCE IS STRONG! Selling out our own Children and the fate of the Human Race. This is not just about diet. Do not believe everything you see. The World is an illusion. Wake up. There are many things all around us made from Animals that we never notice. We are so disconnected; we do not even notice this right in front of our face three times a day. When we open our circle of compassion to all, we grow as a people and our treatment of each other and others improves. It really is about peace, love, and compassion for all. How many more school shootings until we wake-up? Humane Education=Veganism=VEGAN AMERICA is the answer.
When we look into the Ancients’ Artworks, you see the hidden history. This information is the drop of water deep inside a rock that bursts it open when the freeze comes. It is not in any textbook or lecture. The Ancients were telling us how to survive in their Art. The messages all the same, every time, over and over again. They all, say the same thing, and we are at a crossroads of a new age. This crossroad can go in the direction it is going and we end as a people just after the turn of the century, close to the Ancient Mayan Calendar end. Just as in their Cosmic Ball Game, we can reverse our fate, which they also foresaw, in that we change and open our circle of compassion. This is our last big test as a people. Do we want better for our Children? If not, screw you, I ask them, and every time, they say they want to live longer, healthier lives in a healthy loving world. Don’t you want that for them? Well they want the future and they want it now. We have to change NOW! Come clean – TELL A CHILD THE TRUTH TODAY!
Most know this and that, and only, this and that; but, limited perspectives are stagnant when the bigger, more important reality is contained in this and that and everything else. Look at the entirety of the situation and do a search of John Robbins Realities from Diet for a New America. The re-print statistics are all over on the internet. You will see the connections of diet to starvation, disease, pollution, its all there, takes 5 to 10 minutes for the average person to make the connections. People simply do not know about Factory Farming, Veganism, Humane Education, or any of the other implications. Most people never have time to think of such things. We need to slow down, even for 10 minutes and read. The majority of people suppress themselves by adopting systems of thoughts and actions shaped by their own perceived desires of those in control. To deny our children their freedom is to commit a crime against humanity. "Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, "Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that ..." George Carlin
“There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly” Buckminster Fuller. To many people, this seems like a stupid, meaningless personal choice, dietary issue; however, this issue is not a crazy fad or news from a crazy zealot. Just as a caterpillar turns to a butterfly, a simple change in diet can evolve into the solution to the Health Care crisis, war, starvation, pollution, global warming, school shootings and violence in society. This one change brings a new way of living – actually, it is a very old, suppressed, and long forgotten way of living the Ancients knew well. Humane Education. Teaching a reverence for life. Respectful people do not pick or choose as they wish what to be respectful of. They have no choice but to respect everything. God gave life, man never should have taken it away – never, ever – and yet, here we are engulfed in this horrific killing machine.
A silent Holocaust is going on in America, right here and now, right in front of our noses three times a day. Can’t you smell it? Look off in the distance. Factory Farming is hazing our World. Well, maybe, you cannot see it. I see it in the far off distance, a wavy haze melting the ground. I’m chasing it down and grappling this machine with you as you read my words. Even Einstein saw it 50 years ago, when he said, “Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet”
There is no magic bullet to cure cancer, heart disease, stroke, and on, and on. Prevention is the cure, leave your bandage solutions at home and do a little research. The best diet is Vegan. The science is out, PLEASE LET GO OF THE STONE AGE – THIS IS 2007. Our Children need this. The Human race and the future of Earth hinges on this. Your kids, family, and self all dieing of hideous cancers, heart attacks, strokes, and the list is a mile long – do some research and you will see. Oh how well I know, how Lazy Ignorance hates to read at all costs, after all, it might lead to change=work.
Bad men are just immature selfish little boys who have acquired the power to prevent reason from taking away their toys. The Factory Farming Industry in concert with our loving Government has created the most horrific killing machine that is spiraling out of control. The only way to stop this is through Education Reform. Teaching our youth a philosophy of respect, responsibility, and love of life=Humane Education=Veganism. No more time will be spent arguing with Hereditary Ignorance. Generation after generation slips through our hands playing this silent game of “we don’t want to scare them with the truth” mentality. This mentality is the same mentality of Hereditary Ignorance that wants to drag this out a few thousand more years. Sorry, we won’t last that long. It really is now or never.
Every kid in America should know where their food comes from as soon as they can pick up a fork. Scarfing down a burger on the run is the ultimate insult to the hundred, or so, cows, mixed in the grind for your heartless gluttony. And if you are to afraid to be honest, Public Schools have no place in helping you hide your weak character and lack of respect and lack of responsibility. People with weak values blindly adopt the values of society, with no regard for right or wrong. Children are the key to saving our race, as a people, on this planet, for they are the transmission of society. Maybe you did not know that. The Meat and Dairy Industry knows how important it is to Indoctrinate our Children with a constant reminder, rammed down their innocent eyes, hanging on the walls of an institution that Children are Indoctrinated into TRUSTING FOR TRUTH – NOT TO HIDE SOCIETIES ILLS.
“It is my view that the vegetarian manner of living by its purely physical effect on the human temperament would most beneficially influence the lot of mankind” Einstein. To leave the responsibility of “The Talk” to the parents, does not work, because most parents do not know, as, they themselves, are brainwashed and desperately cling to their Hereditary Ignorance, for without it, their world crumbles apart. The crumbling should not be feared, for this is your part in the evolution of the Human Race, and your awakening into who, you really are.
Children never grow and “Find out themselves”, when they are old enough to decide what is right and then make it a personal choice. Until then, have you decided correctly for them, and we wait and hide the truth, until when? They never know. It took me 43 years to figure it out. It is very well hidden. Public School should be one place that delivers the truth in the form of healthy, nutritious food that is not the product of the suffering or demise of another being. Animals are not ours to eat, wear, or use in any other way.
This is how the Hereditary Ignorance continues. Schools are one place that should teach students how to see the world as it really is. This is every Teacher’s job. The Art Teacher does it best though. Real Artists are really Teachers. We deal with the real world. People really do believe everything we see. You may have said, “I saw it with my own eyes!” Instead of teaching our children what to know, let them find themselves and how to decipher our falsehoods. Why would anyone want their child to live a lie and die early in a dieing World? Who would want to be involved with Factory Farming in any way? Who would want to ignore TRUTH? Who would want to hide TRUTH? Answer: People who believe what the people they trusted told them.
Just because we enter into a world with little humanity and know of no other, does not mean we have to accept all we have ever known to be singular, indisputable, and real. The truth is we can make this world better, right here, right now. In the great words of Sitting Bull, “Let us put our minds together and see what life we can make for our children” No more School shootings=Vegan America. After all is said and done, history cares not of pride, nor, conformists, only to a gasp at how primitive they must have been; whereas, we always remember those who are able to change with great reverence, for they put aside pride and refused to conform to evil.
