The lawyers, the farmers. everyone involved was religious
How do they reconcile their sadistic treatment of livestock with their religious beliefs? It appeared that everyone in that community goes to church every Sunday--that arrogant, obnoxious, self-righteous lawyer who spoke about his seven children; the judge who overlooked the evidence; the organic farmer who supports animal cruelty so that he can"enjoy his pork sandwich for lunch"...When they go to church, does the minister, or the preacher quote these passages from the Bible?
Job 12:7
Ask the animals and they will teach you.
Psalm 50:10; 148:7-14
For every animal of the forest is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills. I know every bird in the mountains, and the creatures of the field are mine. Praise the lord from the earth you great sea creatures…wild animals and cattle, small creatures and flying birds…let them praise the name of the Lord for His name alone is exalted; His splendor is above the earth and the heavens. Praise the Lord!
Hosea 2:18
In that day I will make a covenant for them, with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the creatures that move along the ground….
Ecclesiastes 3:18-20
As for men, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals. Man’s fate is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; man has no advantage over the animal…All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return…
