  there's a current court case in ny which is hearing that question right now.

  the precise issue is the continued captivity of two chimpanzees, (leo and hercules, names bestowed by humans) in a medical research laboratory at stony brook university.. i suggest that the application has some merit.

  are not all of us "animals?

  The Los Angeles Times: Cockroaches are People Too

  "I found working with roaches a lot easier than working with some actors," Jerry O'Connell jokes. "They were a lot less demanding."

  "They're very interesting and charismatic animals when you get to know them," says Raymond A. Mendez, a Portal, Arizona-based roach wrangler

  Should we grant crickets, nematodes and echinoderms "personhood"?

  Stop the insanity! Where does it end?

  When you say "negativity" do you mean openly discussing the faults, failings, lies and hypocrisy of the WT leadership?

  This is a forum where people can freely speak and share their own thoughts. That's actually a POSITIVE thing.

  sd-7: Oubliette, I think I must have been reading the Simplified Edition. I hadn't meant to click on that one, but apparently I must have. Sorry about that.

  "However, there were some problems with this explanation."

  sd-7, I just did a word search in the May 15th, 2015 WT and could not find this sentence.

  Where did you find it?
