  • Earth is a soul factory.  The turnover of souls through slaughter and consumption is amazing.  Sentience of all forms is continually being scrubbed into oblivion.  Death is an industry.  And the corporations that are formed to promote it may and, in many cases, do have corporate lives far in excess not only of their victims, but even of the sponsors temporarily-embedded into the corporate body.  Such corporations are the werewolves of modernity, feeding variously and vicariously upon humanity.


    If there are reincarnation junkies in the cosmos, they're without a doubt targeting earth in their quest for repetitive roller coaster rides.  The lines to get back on the rides are very, very short.  And if the ride doesn't kill you, exiting through the turnstyle should do the trick.


    If, upon some world somewhere -elsewhere- , life is 'truly sacred' or at least pervasively so, to them our modern carnivoristic culture would doubtlessly appear antithetically demonic.


    Although the Native Americans were not vegetarians, and, of course, took their game fresh, they at least had a spiritual tradition of honoring and spiritually relating to the target of their hunts creature-to-creature and soul-to-soul.  Hunting often was prayerful and dining was an act of thoughtful communion.


    Soulless consumption through the mast wasting of souls is, on the other hand, the philosophy of all known concentration camps.


    So, at least, relate genuinely to and reflectingly upon what you eat today.  And beware of the wolves that were.
