"Joyful Curmudgeon" An oxymoron?
No! I see all the beauty of God's creation and I'm joyful. At the same
time, I see all the suffering and corruption going on in the world, and feel
called to help expose and end it so that we may have true peace and compassion.

Here is yet another poem from this remarkable human being:
The slaughtermen of Bassatin
Were brandishing their knives.
The slaughtermen of Bassatin
Were bent on taking lives.
They cut the cattle's tendons
And ignored their anguished cries,
The torturemen of Bassatin
Then stabbed them in the eyes.
“In the Bassatin slaughterhouse in Egypt, slaughtermen disable cattle by cutting the tendons of their legs then plunging a long knife through the eye which then serves as a handle to jerk the animal’s head around for ritual slaughter.”
Why do I publish such unpleasant articles? As long as people hide from the truth and live in denial, cruelty will flourish. If enough people stop making it acceptable and profitable for others to do these evil things, the purveyors of cruelty will go out of business.
