The Fellowship of Life |

. 1974 "Regarding 'The Better Way' pamphlet - it is an attempt to show from
my own very limited knowledge and experience that we need not depend on
cruelty and killing in order to live. It is not comprehensive by any
means, but I hope that it will serve to show that there are other ways,
better ways" "There is one point which I feel must be made clear and it is this:
The Fellowship of Life is not an animal welfare society as such, neither
is it a vegetarian society. Its function is to promote a "Better Way" of
life for humans, based on justice, mercy and compassion, and faith in
God, which is beneficial to all creation (including themselves). We
believe in overcoming evil with good and that when sufficient numbers
follow the "Better Way" of life then evil will be automatically
conquered. Therefore it is not intended to involve the Fellowship in
parliamentary petitions for banning this or that - in any case there are
enough societies doing this. But we are not dogmatic, our minds being
ever open to the leading of the Spirit..." "In the future, when we feel the ground has been sufficiently prepared, we shall appeal for the recognition of our ideals by the Church, or else we shall grow so strong that no appeal will be necessary! We founder members may not be there to see that day, but the foundations will be laid, and the torch will be handed on, blazing! What a wonderful privilege it is for us all!" Go on to 1975 - FoL
