Just goes to show what joke-hova thinks of animals. I have no respect for a god that treats animals as expendable. While sometimes it is necessary to kill animals (for food, to control populations of animals that can become pests, or in self defense), wanton abuse of animals is not excused. And offering them up as sacrifices to this blood-thirsty god is not acceptable--the animal's soul is used as energy to help that thing enslave the whole world.
And belittling the bond between a pet and its owner is just as bad. Some pets can last as long as 60 years, given proper care. Dogs and cats tend to last 12 years or so, and some breeds can approach 30 years if given excellent care. Yes, I believe that one should not own a pet that they cannot properly care for. But, this is not the case in many cases. There are people that can and do properly care for dogs and cats, even building structures on their whole homes for them. These animals have souls, too. They can become attached to people that properly care for them--why then, after maybe 20 years, does this god expect people to suddenly not care for them at all? Even a pet rat, which is lucky to make it much past 3 years old, can become attached to someone.
Or, I would like to see someone's pet parakeet (which can last as long as 60 years, given good care) dying after a long life, and have its owner not feel anything for it simply because joke-hova wants all that energy to help enslave the whole planet. I would rather see joke-hova dead--preferably by the most inhumane way possible, than seeing a mouse dying.
