the law should definitely discourage such a thing.

Rob, here is your profile......Location: Seattle E-mail: rob_wma@hotmail.com - Cobol programmer (consultant), bass player, bike commuter, professing Christian funamentalist and creationism apologist. My wife really is "robroys woman."

Here is my response as to 'why' Mr. macho-man....

Jesus said that not even a sparrow falls to the ground that God does not notice....Matthew 10:31

I'm always amazed by guys who pass themselves off as 'tough-guys.'

I never claimed to be a tough guy or macho - I do feel a little macho that I did the STP in one day this year though. 8^>.

I believe I am merely trying to say that animals and humans have far different values.

To put your scripture in context:

Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. -- Mattew 10:29-31

This scripture is not talking about the worth of sparrows. It is talking about the worth of a man!

Your emotions are blinding you to the actual meaning of the words and sentences I use.

I see this man as a sinner, as we all are. I believe most on this thread may be guilty of looking for the speck in their brothers eye while ignoring the plank in their own.

BTW, what's my profile got to do with it?

I'm always amazed by guys who pass themselves off as 'tough-guys.'

Seriously. Ever read some of their posts? Most of them wind up being redneck hicks, with their stories about shootin' the dog and throwing stray cats into a bag and then into the lake, or beating them with a ball bat. Migod, what the hell kind of people are these and what year do they live in? I see them as wearing coveralls with no shoes, a hayseed in their mouth, and playing 'dueling banjos.'
