The movie that started it all! The Meatrix (www.themeatrix.com) spoofs The Matrix films and highlights the problems with factory farming. Instead of Keanu Reeves, The Meatrix stars a young pig, Leo, who lives on a pleasant family farm... he thinks. Leo is approached by a trenchcoat-clad cow, Moopheus, and joins him on a journey to learn more about what goes on behind closed barn doors at factory farms. The Meatrix was created and produced by Sustainable Table (www.sustainabletable.org) and Free Range Studios (www.freerangestudios.com).

Looking for the perfect Pet?



Please be responsible do not just get the first puppy you see.

Research breeds online to determine which breed closely matches your family's needs. Consider the following: size, temperament, exercise needs, maintenance, food requirements and known breed-specific health issues like hip dysplasia.

Please avoid purchasing puppies from pet shops most likely they will be from puppy mills and they will do everything in their power and lie to you.

Was Jesus a vegetarian?

I have been thinking about that for a few hours. Not that it would make a huge difference in my eating habits if I were told Jesus was a meat eater. I wouldn't go and buy a Junior bacon cheeseburger. I have been searching vegetarian recipes, vegan shoes, bags things of that sort because I do plan to eventually have my whole lifestyle cruelty-free. Now the hard part is getting my other half to tag along =). But during that research I have found material stating that Jesus could have been a vegetarian. I could see where he could have possibly been a vegetarian. Come on now, he is the son of God why would he want to eat anything that can feel hurt, that loves and can suffer. I do feel it is wrong the way you devour our meat today. It only took one video for me to stop eating meat. I was one of the people that would say "but it tastes so good, I don't know how you could be a vegetarian." "What the eyes don't see the heart doesn't feel" this little phrase goes hand in hand with all the factory farm cruelty videos. On that note.....

Genesis 1 28-31
28 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."

29 Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food." And it was so.

31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.

Romans 14:21
It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause any man to stumble.

Ecclesiastes 3 18-20
Man's fate is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; man has no advantage over the animal. Everything is meaningless. All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all shall return.

Proverbs 15:17
Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox with hatred within."

"Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of something to eat." ~ Romans 14:20

"He who killeth an ox is as if he slew a man. And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear, for your hands are stained with blood, and your mouths are defiled with flesh." Isaiah 1:15,66:3

Genesis 9:3
Everything that lives and moves will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.

Now notice God says "just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything". This is proof to me that before this point, people were only eating fruits and vegetables.

Also, after Adam and Eve sinned then did God provide animal skin to better cover themselves and their shame.

Just pondering here.....

The Kill Box-Shelter Dogs vs. Pet shop puppies



If you have the guts to watch the video you will see what happens when you purchase a dog from a pet shop vs. adopting one from a shelter. Pet shop puppies come from puppy mills these dogs are left in a cage to breed 100 times over never ever having the pleasure to run or play or even touch grass with their paws. When you purchase a puppy from a store you keep these horrible humans in business. Pet shops lie to you and tell you they do not come from puppy mills. THEY DO! So many great dogs and cats are waiting to be adopted at your local shelter. Some with problems that in time with patience you can work it out. So, please do yourself and these shelter animals a favor. Please adopt! Millions of dogs die each day because no one wants to give them a home. Adopting is the way to go!
