It is rather interesting for me to read this article. Thank author for it. I like such themes and anything connected to them. I definitely want to read more on this blog soon. By the way, rather nice design this site has, but don’t you think it should be changed from time to time?

Being of British decent I grew up eating bacon sandwiches. To this day I still eat a bacon sandwich now and again. Just as I do a cucumber sandwich or Cheese toasty (Grilled Cheese). Many foods will kill us. Many non-foods will kill us. Having to listen to NEWS networks babble on stupidly will kill us. Sometimes I get the feeling we concentrate too much in America on what will kill us and not about what will help us. Negative and scare-tactic information has become cliche and boring. Try a more positive approach to articles. Who knows, you might get more people's attention. So, go, eat bacon sandwiches. Make sure you get off your backside and exercise! Make sure bacon is not your only meal-of-the-day. Eat in moderation. And one last time, get off your butt and go for a jog or a run or something physical and challenging.

All living things have some intelligence.
Humans are carnivores, by design.
Rather than singling out pigs, point the blame back on the way certain foods are processed. Between the pesticides, nitrates, antibiotics and other "preservatives", I would say that we are the ones killing ourselves!

Pigs are widely believed to have the intelligence of 3-year-old human children?
If true then that would place the pigs intelligence rating above some of those in Washington!

Psh, abortion has way higher numbers.
now if you want to describe this partaking of bacon as suicide, then I guess you can say it falls under the suicide category and doesn't compete with abortion, which has way higher numbers.

"you eat them they'll kill you"
Interesting notion of justice.
How will the accounts be balanced if by the millions we dismember, vacuum out of the womb, and throw in industrial incinerators the corpses of unborn children?
Doesn't that affect fundamental human social ecology?
Just off the top of my head I can think of a few myself. Isn't Europe dying demographically? No younger taxpayers available for the rapidly aging population. In the US if something similar accelerates how will they afford to look after Ms Erbe in her old age? She has been teaching ppl to callously kill. Who will defend her when she is less than 'productive'? Isn't really able to defend herself?
Ms Erbe is sensitive to the interconnections in natural systems, but blind to the implications on our human ecology of the legislated encouragement of the denial of the maternal instinct; the legislated imposition of systems of child killing,
There has been a lot of blood, the guilt is large; many directly implicated; many culpable now. Does Ms Erbe recognise the economy of 'the revenge of conscience' as she recognizes the 'revenge of the animals'?

Bonnie, you're a moral fraud pure and simple. Your self-serving, neo-Puritanical, faux moral outrage about using animals for food doesn't wash with probably 99% of the American people. It has even less credibility coming from someone who thinks abortion at any time, for any reason, is just OK. Crawl back under your rock, oh sanctimonious one.
