george carlin sums up why i like animals more than people perfectly:
"As I said before, humans are the only species that systematically tortures and murders its own for pleasure or personal gain. In fact, we are the only species that systematically tortures and murders its own, period. Most animals, when fighting one of their own, will show aggressive behavior, but very little hostility or intention to harm. And when the outcome of the struggle is inevitable, the losing animal will signal its defeat by exposing its most vulnerable part to the victor, affording it the opportunity to finish the kill. The victor then walks away without inflicting further harm. These are the creatures we feel superior to."
I don't really believe in the afterlife that strongly but I WANT to believe in a heaven for the kind and a full-bore hell for those who unashamedly abuse animals.
