Many of us who support animal rights are also avid human rights supporters. I personally rejoiced when the Don't Ask, Don't Tell Repeal Act of 2010 was passed in Congress. Now it appears that the military is heading in a welcome direction, and that gays and lesbians in the armed forces will no longer be forced to go underground when it comes to their personal lives.
Unfortunately, some people disagree. Cindy Jacobs is one.
Fanaticism takes on lots of forms. Sometimes, it comes in the form of ideology. Sometimes, it manifests itself as violence. And here it comes in the form of a nutty little sermon, full of all kinds of loopy observations. It really has to be seen to be believed.
Sometimes I fool myself into thinking that people like this are only a bad figment of my imagination. Turns out they're all too real...
I submit that Ms. Jacobs provides great support for the notion that human speech is a skill not necessarily worth acquiring.
