    I agree with genie here; Forrest, you should lead the way for the rest of us! And you are not weird, you're just happen to be much more socially responsible than the rest of the world.

    I hate waste too. And I agree with hippiemom about the stores. How many friggin stores and restaurants are really needed. I just cringe when I see more trees down.

    One day in May I walked outside and a ton of trees were cut down because they were going to fix a railroad bridge. Every morning it was so nice to hear the bird songs then one day just gone. Bastards - wonder how many nests had been prepared for babies and how many birds lost their homes. They could have worked around soem of them instead of chopping every single one down.

    I fucking hate those check advance places. They're popping up all over. One on every other block. They prey on the poor and should be illegal. Plus they look like goddamn casinos or something with all their bright lights and shit. Fewer things get me more hostile than those places. It makes me hope and hope that there's a hell so they can burn for eternity alongside anyone else who preys on the poor.

    Edit: There, they're, their....

    See...it was a show I was watching. They HAD a plastic raft, and then they cut down seven or eight trees with which to make ANOTHER raft, just for fun.

    i see. it just struck me as odd. now i understand. if we would've planted 2 trees for every tree cut; we wouldn't have global warming. and that's the biggest waste.

    The whole "God put animals here for us to kill and eat" thing is bullshit. Mostly because I'm not sure God exists, but even if he or she did then I wouldn't think he or she would want *LIONS* killing any living creature. Of course, that's just like my opinion, dude.

    how does my change make any difference? why are lions allowed to and we're not?

    if we're splitting hairs; the bible actually says man shall have domain over the beasts of the land and fishes of the sea.

    ^Also, originally animals were supposed to eat plants and herbs.

    I hate seeing trees chopped down for somebody's entertainment (i.e., making a raft so they can float on a lake, when they already have a plastic raft).

    Do you see this often?

    I wish this meme would go extinct.
    I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire

    if you notice; we eat herbivores. the animals eat the plants and we get nutrition from that. between the plants and protien from the meat; it's a healthy balance.

    I think the word used is dominion which doesn't say anything about killing and eating... http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/dominion
