    Looks like the Swiss have visited Webdog's thread about death before the fall. In it, he suggests that plant life died before Adam sinned and therefore was the first of life to sacrifice itself. So I surmise that they figure that flora should get it's long, last, due rights to life. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    So what are we supposed to eat? I'm not sure I like where this might head.

    Well, this explains a lot. I thought that I had just shaken up that Coke can too much before I put it in the freezer and THAT's why it exploded.....apparently it was the frozen vegetables protesting the frigid temperatures and trying to stage a coup....:BangHead:

    As funny and ridiculous as this sounds, it's also very sad......



    Rom 1:25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

    How to save the world.
    First Step: Stop eating meat, you are a killer because 'they are like us'.
    Second Step: Stop eating vegetables, you are taking away their 'rights'.
    Third Step: Everyone should wear breathing filter apparatus because of the millions of germs, bacteria, microbes and viruses we are killing when we breath in.:laugh:

    Its not that big a jump from animal rights to plant rights. I appreciate Mohler´s thoughts. He has a good blog.

    This is the turely sad part.

    Copied and pasted from the article
    color change and bold added by me:

    "Rising to the task, leading bioethicists argue that for a human, value comes from possessing sufficient cognitive abilities to be deemed a "person." This excludes the unborn, the newborn, and those with significant cognitive impairments, who, personhood theorists believe, do not possess the right to life or bodily integrity. This thinking has led to the advocacy in prestigious medical and bioethical journals of using profoundly brain impaired patients in medical experimentation or as sources of organs."

    If is understand this right, they say that plants have rights but some people may not have even the right to "bodily integrity". :tear:
