Temples?

Here is the article I was thinking of:
Child shares milk with 'holy' temple rats
A child has been sharing milk from a bowl with a group of "holy" rats at an Indian temple.
Hundreds of rats live undisturbed at the Karni Mata Hindu temple in Deshnoke, Rajasthan.
It's known locally as "Rat Temple".
The high priests protect the rats because their bodies are thought to house the souls of dead worshippers.
There are special holes allowing the rats to move around the temple.
It's said if you spot a white rat, you'll have good luck.

WTF cares what a rat likes?
Not I . But. I also have no use for humans that imprison any living creature and make their lives hell.

hmmm, Daschele, HRC, Byrd, Schumer, et al....
But no self-respecting python could eat any of them w/o regurgitating.

A little flea, and blubonic plague bacteria, and you could destroy a city!
It is no wonder they are called "vermin".

So I guess you eat no meat and wear no leather.
Are you one of those who doesn't eat honey either, because of the "slavery" the bees are put through?

Okay. I'll give you the chickens in tiny cages and cows crowded in pens.
But the bees are definitely not slaves nor are they treated inhumanely unless you call smoking them inhumane.

Thank goodness these idiots weren't around in 1968. I used to shoot lizards with my BB-gun when I was 10 and sell them for a nickel to the snake owners I knew.

Yes, temple. There are so many terms for holy places, and I must've had a "senior moment", when I couldn't remember Hindu temple. ;-)
