In these times of strife and ecological demise of our forests, it seems more beneficial to the world and its many different races if a little more compassion were shown by some of our public writers.
To watch birds being mauled by cats as entertainment, without offering any assistance, does not speak well of humanitarian logic and nature's laws. Neither do articles advocating the bashing of certain nationalities.
The Creator said that man shall have domain over all the creatures and forests, etc., of the Earth. Part of our reverence is to respect creation, and to keep ourselves in balance with our earthly environment. In this age, oceans no longer separate us from other nations.
