Re: I’m stunned to find out how many people care more about pets and animals than humans
Humans are evil, dogs are god, when a pet dies it's much more traumatic than when humans die. If you bring a dog into a large arena full of priests, and pastors and other religious cooks, then bring in the room one dog, the dog will the most holy person in the room, why? because a dog doesn't have a carnal mind.

Have you ever seen how some dogs act around other dogs?

What about the pit bulls who have killed kids and the elderly?

Oh they just get a free pass because they’re dogs? It’s how they were raised right?

It’s the same damn thing with humans.

Re: I’m stunned to find out how many people care more about pets and animals than humans
Had a discussion over the holidays about pets with family.

Multiple family members confessed without being bashful at all that they care about pets and animals more than people.

How did we get here, and what does this say about ourselves?

Are you one of them?

Please explain.
 Quoting: Higgs_Bozo


We don't care more about pets than people. That's how you are choosing to phrase it and it's leading you down a perplexing road.

Let me ask you... if both were drowning which would you save? A faithful, loyal obedient dog? Or your lying, cheating , unfaithful spouse?

If you say the spouse I really don't understand you nor do I want to.

I think what you are having trouble with is that some people value love and familial loyalty more than they value species designation. Traitors, turncoats, liars, thieves, and the like can take their chances elsewhere, human or not IMHO.

If your kid has been a decent, good little kid living next door to us for 5 years maybe I push him/her out of the way of the oncoming car instead of my dog. If he/she has been a little shit the whole time instead... maybe "I couldn't get to her in time" and my dog lives instead. What kind of kid are you raising? One that people would consider more worthy than a dog? Or one nobody would miss except your immediate family? The world is overflowing already with humans that aren't worth a good dog. That's a huge reason why the world is in the shape it is.

More importantly, you didn't keep your kid out of the street. Your kid isn't my responsibility... my dog is. It's my call if I want to be nice and sacrifice tending my responsibility to tend to yours. Hopefully you and your kid have given me reason to. If not... that's more your problem than mine. Most people these days are ignorant, self-centered, entitled assholes. Don't be one, maybe you won't be treated as "expendable".

Re: I’m stunned to find out how many people care more about pets and animals than humans
Animals can not help themselves like humans can

Before I say this I admit there are exceptions.

BUT
I would rather help a hungry cold animal than an able bodied human.

I have several feral cats I feed daily.
The pack ranges from 6 to a dozen depending on the day.
I go through 199 pounds of dry food, 30 cans of wet food and 30 packs of $1 a pack hot dogs per month.
Every morning they get a couple bowls of dry food and a can of wet mixed in. before bed they get more dry with hot dogs chopped up in it.

I recently made 5 winter shelters out of 27 gallon plastic containers and cheap harbor freight moving blankets, Straw, cedar chips and a small warming pads.
I also made a food cafeteria for them out of a 72 gallon container. It has heated water bowls, heated food dish's, lights and I am waiting on a wifi streaming camera to install in it so I can check on them or stream the video live.

I made the food shelter to keep them out of the rain and snow.

There has been times I skimped on my meal so that I could feed the cats. But I skipping a few meals would do me mre good than harm

these cats share their food with raccoons, possums and skunks. The cats are not scarred of the other animals and it is normal to look out at night and see a cat eating beside one of the other animals.

If I know a person is really on hard times and trying to help themselves I have no issue giving them a few bucks, but if they make bumming money their only source of income, they will not get a penny from me.

I am disabled and can not work like I did before I broke my back but I still do what I can.

Re: I’m stunned to find out how many people care more about pets and animals than humans
Because their souls are the same as our souls. We all go back Into the light, the same eternal light when we die. We all live many lives over and over again.
 Quoting: Catmandoo


Like OP, you mistakenly assume we are all souled humans.

That is absolutely 100% FALSE.

Your post only applies to the minority of people that are souled humans.

However, most people are non-souled organic portals.

Your eyes have opened to the lies of religion. Now open them a little wider to the lies that we are all souled humans.

.
 Quoting: Zovalex


Your opinion on who has a soul and who doesn't is simply that. It does not make it so.

I do not even believe in God! I abhor the twisted manipulation of religions. I speak my opinion from the crystal clear knowledge of being dead twice and being forced to wake up in this hollow world.

A soul is your ticket to ride. All living things have souls. But, if you are steadfast in your personal opinion...enjoy the dream. You will some day awaken into the truth, look around and say something like...ah this is great! I'm never going back there again. You, the Light you, will go into the Light and be surrounded with it and find the eternal companionship you have missed more than you knew. Then nothing else matters.

Then another soul you love shares with you that he was the dog you left for years, tied up in the back yard, often hungry. He chose to live as a dog to share your time in your chosen trip thru life again...and you were cruel.

You're gonna feel bad and get a turn later to feel how he felt. Do your self a favor and treat all animals with kindness.

There is no heaven, there is no hell. There us no punishment for our evil deeds. There is eternity. How you live each life determines your luck or happiness in future lives. Be kind and your karma will find kindness.

During your time in the Light we interact with millions of souls and relive adventures and decisions. But we are creatures of adventure and finally decide to go back into some living existence for another chance to experience life. This is how we spend eternity. The entire universe is our stage. Planets come and go, religions come and go, it is never the same thing twice. We all just wing it or follow the rules set by whatever nest you fell in.

You can think I'm nuts, it really doesn't matter. I'm a very happy camper.

There is no “believing” or “not believing”.

There are only differing levels of understanding.

I applaud you for understanding religion is a lie and that souled beings reincarnate.

But I now have a broader understanding that NOT all “living things” have souls. Many have sentience, an awareness of Self, but that is a very different thing from having a soul.

OP, you mistakenly assume that ALL people are human with a soul.

The majority of people on this planet are non-souled biological entities with sentience..... but without a soul. They are NPCs, nothing more than zombies animated by Demiurge consciousness.

When you accept this fact, then it will no longer surprise you to see the shit that people do.

That being the case, I wouldn’t give you two turds for most people, because most of them are nothing more than organic portals.

The ones who actually show empathy, care, love and concern for others are souled humans that I will go out of my way for.

GLP has a broad mix of souled humans and unsouled people.

Re: I’m stunned to find out how many people care more about pets and animals than humans
I just find it strange that when people are posed this question that the seemingly auto response is an attack on how bad humans are.

It’s like everyone can remember almost every single interaction with a human like there are multilayered scars built up in their minds and an automatic backlash begins.

Also when I state people, children should be mixed into the equation too. I mean maybe the question was posed in too much of a general sense but there are many children out there who still maintain their innocence as well...

And most people I believe were born with good will, it’s more of their surroundings, I believe that shapes them to be bad.
 Quoting: Higgs_Bozo


The truest answer is that most animals we interact with have zero free will. From pets to food supply they are under our influence. They mostly can't make decisions for the informed future. People can. And most choose poorly. If there's a person and a dog in the path of a speeding car and you have to hit one, I'd wager at least 50% of people will hit the human.

Re: I’m stunned to find out how many people care more about pets and animals than humans
Sorry people, you are weird with your pets.

Here’s a beginners list OP. Feel free to use the list.

1. If you sleep with your pet animals on your bed.
You might be a pet weirdo.

2.If you let your pet animal lick your face, lips, mouth, nose.
You might be a pet weirdo.
It’s called a nasty fungus, most animals have it.
This one and the bed(sheets) is the stupidest one.

3. If you are picking up another animals poop and discarding it.
You might be a pet weirdo.
I know I know city ordinance, this still counts. Think about it.

4. If you have a pet bird caged up in your home with working wings
You might be a pet weirdo.

5. If you have more than dozen cats
You definitely are a pet weirdo and have toxoplasmosis.

6. If you pay to have your pet cloned
You might be a pet weirdo.

 Quoting: Higgs_Bozo


Interesting, in that I find it strange that you would take the presented facts, and position them as "attacks."

I believe another poster has already pointed out that there's a hint of manipulation or shading going on here. I like my dog better than I like most people, ergo I'm crazy and I don't value human life.

Well, that's just foolish, and farthest thing from the truth that could be. Now, let me be extremely clear, I DO like my dog more than most people, hard fact. Why? Well, for starters, I don't KNOW most people. I know SOME people, both good and bad. OF those people, I care for some few more than others. I wouldn't hurt them or see them hurt, I would defend them, even the ones I DON'T like, and protect them as well as I was able.

And guess what? So would my dog, without hesitating for a second, without being hampered by laws, morality questions, opinions, or ego. HE loves people, infinitely and with such trust. And THAT is what in some ways makes him better than most humans, including me - even if you hurt and abuse him, he will STILL put you ahead of himself if the need arises.

And then there's the family thing. Yes, an animal, but my family nonetheless, and I value my family above your family - that's again a NORMAL human trait, and a healthy one, as well - it ensures survival and genetic diversity. And our pets are a part of that family, so that extends to them as well. It's not AGAINST others, it's about one's self, one's family and one's priority.

It's also normal human psychology. There are people that love money, or fancy cars, or other inanimate objects. THOSE are the creepy ones, the 'paths - psychopath, sociopath, etc.

If you don't have empathy for others, that's fine (yes, I include humans AND animals in that statement - I don't care what anyone says, if you can't have real empathy for animals, then you can't for humans either.) I'm not a PETA treehugging freak that wants all of the earth's beings to survive indefinitely and for humans to die out - it's simply about my pets. They are family, they are assets and they are my friends, as much as any human. If you find that odd, then I'm very sorry for you, that you've never known the loyalty and friendship that a pet can bring.

SO back around to your point. It's not ABOUT other people, as you should understand, but about people and their family members. Yeah, the world is full of jerks - it's also full of awesome people, and given the circumstances, people that are sometimes both. But you know what? I don't know those people, so I don't love them. I wish them only the best, but they are not my loyal companion, my family, or my community.

Are you one of them?

Please explain.
 Quoting: Higgs_Bozo


We are the higher intelligence as as such should be able to figure out how to tend to ourselves and our needs. We are tasked with helping others and those in need and I'm pretty sure that does not EXCLUDE animals. If you see an animal(human or otherwise) in need, you help. However, today, it seems popular to stand on a corner with a sign when you appear to have all your limbs in working order. I myself have seen people who just refuse to get the help they need to turn themselves around because they LIKE doing what they are doing and seem to expect people to GIVE them help when needed. I don't have sympathy for that.
Now pets and many animals have become domesticated over the many years and RELY on humans for their well being and survival. The dog is a perfect example. Years of breeding for specific traits have made these animals very vulnerable to their environment. Short haired single coat dogs are not suited to northern climates as long haired double coated dogs will not fair well in southern climates. A dog bred to protect as opposed to hunt will not fair well feeding itself as certain traits have been bred out of the animal. We humans created this, not the dog. Therefore we should be caring for them. Farm animals kept in fencing, or pens are very dependent on us also. Born in captivity, they know nothing else. Wild animals, who have the hardest job surviving, are also victims of our encroachment, getting caught in our trash or losing hunting territory to our developments.
Bottom line, animals get just as hungry and cold as humans. Humans always have a shelter they can go to(at least in this country)...if they want to. Animals, not so much. If I can, I will help an animal in need, even if its only one good deed I can do for it.
