Re: May 15, 2004 Impact this week, page 6: �In Next Week�s Daily Mail �� Women in Rodeos
In our opinion, rodeos are just another form of animal abuse and exploitation. We believe the �passion� these women feel for this �tradition� is simply an addiction to violence.
Barbarism clothed in nostalgia and words like �tradition� is still barbarism. Let�s stop trying to hide the truth.
Rightly does Proverbs 12:10 state:
�A righteous man [woman] has regard for the life of his beast,
But the compassion of the wicked is cruel.�
In closing, David Starr Jordan, M.D. said, �Be a life long or short, its completeness depends on what it was lived for.� Is living for the harassment of God�s creatures a complete life?
