Re: Please help save our horses!!!!



This brings to mind a quote by Peter De Vries:

The idea of a Supreme Being who creates a world in which one creature is
designed to eat another in order to subsist, and then pass a law saying
*Thou shalt not kill" is so monstrously, immeasurably, bottomlessly absurd
that I am at a loss to understand how mankind has entertained or given it
house roon all this long.
