Prince Paris, its nothing personal.

I am pro-life and a Christian; I am against slavery, child labor and polygamy.

I have teddy bears, a piggy bank and my house team is green.

I love milk, eat eggs and thank God for honey. I love beef steak and fried chicken. I have a fur jacket in my closet and more than the average amount of leather furniture in my house. I eat shark’s fin and bird phlegm soup. (somehow, the latter seems to make me the most evil person in the world.)

It is strange that people eat beef and chicken and wear leather, but are passionately against fur and shark’s fin. Why is it such an exponentially greater evil to kill a larger animal and an endangered one at that, than to flush a goldfish down the toilet/ When there’s a more profound corpse or a larger change to the world to remind us of what we’ve done, people seem to bow their heads in shame. (lest we remember) Then are PETA rallies against fur and chicken nuggets, deep down, driven by guilt and not love?

Sometimes, it can make me so angry to see all these people rallying for bees and yet everybody quiets down when it comes to issues like abortion and stem cell research, or even beat an emo kid day. Their hearts are in the wrong place, and sometimes, with people like those, I believe they’re more in love with the idea of having something to fight for than with the cause itself. (so people, save a cow, eat a vegan :D)

As for me, I confess. If my maids were gone and there’s nothing in the fridge and I’ve gone through two days without food, if it was a choice between my pet turtle or eating 100% organic cotton, I would throw Prince Paris (that’s his name) to the frying pan. I confess that my soul is willing, but the flesh is weak. As for the shark, its soul is endangered, but its flesh is very delicious.

I hope reincarnation is not true, because I think I’m coming back as a toilet brush. (or as Prince Paris)
